A: Ray Bradbury.
Q: Which 91 year-old Waukegan-born, Los Angeles-dwelling author wrote Martian Chronicles and the Cat's Pajamas.
Or:
A: The Illustrated Man
Q: Which Ray Bradbury character was played on screen by a tattooed Rod Steiger.
Or:

philnicRound these parts, you can get dandelion & burdock in plastic bottles in almost any supermarket. Doesn't have quite the same ring to it as Dandelion Wine, however.

fjp451Dandelions and Burdock can also be cooked (old Italian recipes) and eaten. It's that time of year again!!

dandelionYeah, the salad was the excuse for bringing them over for all of us to deal with. Never heard of them being any sort of popular commercial drink, though.

I give you Tesco, Britain's most popular supermarket:
http://www.tesco.com/groceries...etails/?id=256399849(OK, so it's "product unavailable" at the moment, but that must be temporary. Maybe there's a shortage of dandelions, and panic buying has set in.)

I went to the Tesco owned store Fresh 'N' Easy here in the States. No such animal. Yet, went to the website of a soda pop store about five miles from my home:
