Hello, hello, and welcome back to another episode of fluently forward.

This episode has been on my mind, grapes, for years probably I have always wanted to

There have been examples of this, and then we can also think ourselves better.

And I have just wondered, there has to be some government department out there also wondering

the same things, and you know, they also have funding to answer some of these questions

that I have.

But I've always just been so astounded by that, and I've always wondered, why aren't we

talking about this more?
