Hello Danny,   
      
   AS>> Vodka? I never liked it. Good vines are way more tasty. Without    
   AS>> salt.   
   DC> I think you mean "wines" or "fruit of the vines".   :)     
      
   Wines, precisely correct :)    
   Btw, I often see your posts addressed to native Russian speakers in   
   English_Tutor echo.   
      
   DC>> In fact, I never use any encyclopedia as a primary    
   DC>> source.     
   AS>> What do you prefer as the one?   
   DC> In general, your research is being done to affirm or refute    
   DC> a particular position.     
      
   Or quickly get an idea when no personal attitude is involved :)   
   I usually try search robots, say, Google, as a first approach though internet   
   sources may be not reliable at all. In most cases I don't have to dig any   
   further.
