Re: When elephants attack
brave little cuss
"Filled with mingled cream and amber
I will drain that glass again.
Such hilarious visions clamber
Through the chambers of my brain
-- Quaintest thoughts -- Queerest fancies
Come to life and fade away;
Who cares how time advances?
I am drinking ale today."
Edgar Allan Poe

Re: When elephants attack
Factoid of interest.
In India, people in small rural villages who "homebrew" whatever the local beverage is of choice do it in an outbuilding separated from their house by a good distance. Kitchens are often like this too (for fire hazard reasons), but the brewing building is separate from the kitchen.
The reason? Elephants who smell the stuff sometimes go crazy and smash the crap out of the building trying to get at it.
You do not want an elephant in your brewing closet.
