Re: [RC] [RC] I've got *hate* mail! - Truman PrevattThat would be "fruits, flakes and nuts." I first heard this term from a USC grad who came to work for me ;-) in the early 80's.Truman Lynne Glazer wrote: Actually, the original phrase describing Calif is "the land of milk and honey", and then in the 70s some wag added "..., fruits and nuts". I like the double entendre since we are indeed where the fruits and nuts are grown. But we imported a lot of our more unusual folks, as a high school student in the 70s not far from SF, we all developed with well-rounded socialization. I wonder if it was SF Chron columnist Herb Caen that came up with the phrase? Hmmm. -- “Since when have we Americans been expected to bow submissively to authority and speak with awe and reverence to those who represent us?” Justice William O.
