From www.peanutbutterlovers.com/There are many claims about the origin of peanut butter. Africans ground peanuts into stews as early as the 15th century. The Chinese have crushed peanuts into creamy sauces for centuries. Civil War soldiers dined on 'peanut porridge.' These uses, however, bore little resemblance to peanut butter as it is known today. In 1890, an unknown St. Louis physician supposedly encouraged the owner of a food products company, George A. Bayle Jr., to process and package ground peanut paste as a nutritious protein substitute for people with poor teeth who couldn't chew meat. The physician apparently had experimented by grinding peanuts in his hand-cranked meat grinder. Bayle mechanized the process and began selling peanut butter out of barrels for about 6¢ per pound. How interesting.   |

listening to the match on Oxford radio and they are blaming Wolves for delaying the match with 2 minute exclusions and riders taking two rides on a trot.
KP Nuts going well again at Oxford, maybe a year on loan there is on the cards.

Tachophobia: Fear of speed. Maybe thats what some of these riders suffer from these days ?   |

Richard the Lionheart. He was born in Oxford. Was he related to Edward Lionheart, the character played by Vincent Price in Theatre of Blood? |

Those BBC Oxford commentators aren't in Nigel Pearson's league, are they? They thought Ulamek was a Poole rider because he rode for the Pirates in the Craven Shield. Why has Correy and Karlsson had so many races when Pecyna has scored 8 from 3 and it looks like being called at heat 12. |
