Hi Iceman ,
I don't see your point about honey. It is sugar OK a rather complex cocktail, but still sugar.
As I recall from my beekeeping days, the only real threat was fermentation as it contains wild yeast spores.
As for crystalisation, that will happen with temperature. Stick a jar in the fridge for a couple of days. In fact some honey is processed to make it crystalise.

It depends what you define as a continent as there are numerous definitions these days. According to Wikipedia, if you assume there are either 4 or 6 continents then it can be correct that they all start and end with the same letter. Of course not everyone agrees that there are 4 or 6 continents, I always thought there were 5, hence the 5 Olympic rings
7: Antarctica South America North America Europe Asia Africa Australia
6 continents: Antarctica America Europe Asia Africa Australia
6 continents: Antarctica Sth America North America Eurasia Africa Australia
5 continents: Antarctica America Eurasia Africa Australia
5 continents: Antarctica South America Laurasia Africa Australia
4 continents: Antarctica America Africa-Eurasia Australia
Hey Hey,
There's really no debate... There are 7 continents. Just because People in Europe (according to about.com) are taught that it's simply America... they don't live here... I do.. It's North America and South America.. 7 Continents... not all of them starting and ending with the same letter... very simple..
Peace,

Actually you saying "God bless you" when people sneeze comes from the time of the black death. sneezing was one of the symptoms of the plague. The religious leaders at the time decided that when people would sneeze you should ask God to protect them. Also the childrens nusery rythme "ring-a-ring a rosey" is a direct referance to the black death.
ring-a-ring a rosey (the red rashes that formed on a persons skin)
a pocket full of poseys (It was though that the scent of the posey would protect people from the plauge)
Atishoo-atishoo we all fall down. (sneezeing was the last stage before death).
