I tried answering this one once already, but somehow the message has 
not shown up on the site yet...  What bugs Yahoo today, I wonder?

Anyway, I do not find it suspicious at all.  After all, in 1994 a 
journalist in Sports Illustrated found it appropriate to compare the 
taste of lutefisk to the taste of wolf-urine - which he could not 
have done, unless he knew what the latter tasted like...
