     '... For me, the sea breeze off the Aegean [sic]
     any day in preference to a lot of Vedantic hot air filtered through
     an Upper East Side martini glass.'

     Oh?

     One shouldn't trust a teetotaler's opinion on martinis
     any more than one should trust the judgement of the
     archbishop of the Boston diocese, I'd say.

     But then you can't trust me, either, since I'm such
     a sucker for a decent martini. I find I prefer them
     with a twist. Olives are just the pits.

     (Sorry. Couldn't help myself. To throw an obligatory
     Salinger reference into this martini discussion, it seems
     to me that Salinger prefers olives.)
