Hey robert – was that the same issue of JIR that had the ground breaking study "The Utilization of Cucumis sativus compared to Solanum melongena by homemakers as Non-visual Personal Entertainment Systems in English Urban Households (1973-1976)" ? Good research, well laid out. |

Cartoonist Sergio Aragones just did an article for the October 2019 issue of Mad Magazine about the subject. |
