"Suddenly", the large force at Lingayen is at Iba. One PA regiment escapes South during the night but the other doesn't quite make it and is evicted. We are up against 2 divisions plus tankettes and arty. Oddly, they only manage a 300 adjusted assault value. They must be disrupted somewhat or have crappy morale.

That sounds plausible but why would a weevil jump into a 285 degree pot of molten beef fat.

With all due respect, I've made dishes with Bay leaves like you describe. Hundreds of times. Never once have I seen one with a weevil in it. Your single experiment (n=1) is insufficient to derive conclusions regarding the presence or absence of weevils in a beef stew sans Bay leaves. Until you repeat this a couple hundred times, the only reasonable conclusion with statistical validity is that Bay leaves keep weevils out of beef stew.

Status: offline 		Flour Weevils Facts and 7 ways to Get Rid of Them

quote:

2. Place a Dried Bay Leaf in Each Container or Bag

Bay leaves are an excellent remedy against the pests and insects of all kinds. They are an equally great solution against the flour weevil. There is no need to take some bay leaves; a single one can work a great deal. Just place the dry bay leaf in the container or a bag of flour to prevent the weevil growth.

10 Proven Home Remedies To Get Rid Of Weevils Naturally

quote:

2. Bay leaf

Bay leaf, also known as neem, has been used as a natural remedy since ancient times to help get rid of many problems. In case you prefer to keep flour in containers instead of in packets, chances are there would be greater contamination of weevils. Just put some bay leaves inside the loose flour to keep away the weevils. You can also put them in your cupboards and closets.

They wouldn't. Everybody knows weevils wobble but they don't fall down.

***********Feb. 23, 1943(e)*********

Kai-elanden hit by a BB bombardment, suffering about 35% runway damage bu no plane losses. Looks like somebody hit a supply building or something.



Vinh hit by a bombardment from Kirishima, doing moderate damage. The Vengeance at Vinh manage to drop a couple of 500 Lbr's on her. Yara sinks an AK unloading at Vinh after drove all the way from Wake.
