I’m sure I’ve asked this before. I think I decided a legume is a bean, but then I read some nutritional study and it said to eat legumes and beans, so that can’t be right. Wait, I just googled it.

Agreed. But I read this very moving article about the jumpers … I forget where. Maybe The Nation? But one of the relatives of a jumper said he had to thank them for discovering a hoax related to the jumpers. It was weird. I think they’re crazy, but they are not … unkind.

Legume is what you don’t get much of in Economy class. You, being small, wouldn’t know.
