    I have noticed a definite recent fondness in Grist for what used to be called "cheese cake."  First there was the eye popping lingere report from Umbra (was that Umbra modeling? Please say yes.) and now this hubba hubba cover of Rolling Stone.  I know you all want to be popular in your appeal, but where will this stop?. Pant, pant.Randy Cunningham  Cleveland, OH

      Talk about a tree worth hugging...Eco-anything hasn't ever been sexy in its whole history (that I'm aware of), so I say, as long as it doesn't dilute the cause, let them eat (cheese) cake!
