    So the key to freezing stuff long term is to plant grass over the top
    of
    it and build up anice thick turf. Check ;^)

    The texture and appearance is a different matter entirely.

    Or use a plastic bag with a really good seal, modern technology
    and all that.

    Say, what's the deal with Google Groups? The method of "show

    If you cook anything hot enough and/or long enough, the bacteria die and
    most toxins break down (I think botulism is one that does not).

    Interesting part about the frozen wooly mammoths was the small size of the
    ice crystals found internally - to get them that small, theory went that
    they had to have been hit by an equivalent to -150 degree air.
    Theory was that a volcano erupted and sent/drew a heavy gas/vapor very
    high, cooled it, and the very cold cloud fell and hit and effectively
    flash-froze the unsuspecting grazing mammoth. That not only accounted for
    the small ice crystals and minimal cell damage they found, but it also
    accounted for the half-chewed grass in the mouth.
