Readers:

Did you know that Hungarians refer to August as the cucumber-growing season? Basically because that's about all that's going on in the month of August.

Look for new webvice again come September, when the pumpkins start budding and the smell of fresh school-children wafts through the air. I'm working on putting together the reviews section, so weigh in on the items I'm considering (see below) and nominate others.
