And can we get rid of that bloody awful and

Nope. That was allowed even before the EU was even invented.

The exit will lose all fervour when the populace realises the benefits

Drivel.
There's dopes here believes crap like that.
And if a few years ago you were told you couldn't buy your choice of
bulbs, had to put up with reduced wattage vacuums, innefective paint
and weedkiller, would you have believed it?

Straight bananas are starting to seem like a distinct possibility

Nope.

[ Low height one's that save power and produce a
higher safety factor during harvesting of course].

No one climbs banana trees to harvest them.

If you want to be pedantic, no, some use steps or ladders.

No one with even half a clue does with bananas.

But do with other stuff like oranges.

But if that's the case No One harvests
banana trees, at least the ones bearing fruit.

Corse they do.

This of course excludes the odd individual transplanting
banana trees for aesthetic reasons,

You don't use a ladder to do that either.

or the odd garden center that may have
left it a little long to bring the stock in.

There again I suppose bananas are straight anyway.

Of course they are, that's why we have hordes of banana benders.

With the exception of the odd genetic deviant it is
perfectly clear that when conditions are right regarding
speed of propogation, then bananas are straight .

Nope, they are queer, actually.

I read your response with interest, I thank you for your input but I
do get the impression that you may not be intimately aquainted with
bananas and growers.

I would disagree with the hordes of banana benders incidentally.
Banana bending is a highly skilled task and even the most skilled
benders rarely achieve a variation of radius of greater than 3%
without significant discolouration occurring within the following 24
hrs.

This factor and the perception that banana bending does not give the
product a great "added value", ensures that there are not and are
unlikely ever to be "hordes" of banana benders.
