Guest guest Posted February 26, 2002 Report Share Posted February 26, 2002 > I studied my Tai Chi at the Bowery Study Group in the mid to late 80's. I believe Rene was the woman who tried to keep the little group together. Stanley then took over and I had to move on. I have heard that Stanley has died (not a big surprise) but also heard that Don has passed on (rumor). I don't know if these names mean anything to you old-timers. ;-) > > I have always > > been curious as to why several of his > > senior students in this country have > > died relatively early in their lives. > > And the discord that raged in his wake > > when he himself died in the mid-70s > > has similarly left me with a number of > > questions that will probably never be > > answered. > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 7, 2003 Report Share Posted July 7, 2003 Valerian's flowering clusters are a heady sweetness bordering on cloying. Most growers let the plant grow several years before harvesting the the roots. Best done in the early Fall. mjh In a message dated 7/7/03 4:25:48 AM Eastern Daylight Time, writes: > valerian > > I was given a plant under the impression it was valerian.
