As one of the allegedly "under-testosteroned," I just had to get my
hands on a bottle of Dave's so what do I find?

"Some Like It Hot" is _not_ at Montgomery Mall (although they had a
kiosk there over Christmas). Nor do they appear in the NOVA Yellow Pages
or white pages. (Apparently I am not the only person to visit there 
lately as the woman at the information counter was quite familiar with
the issue.)

"Dave's Gourmet" does _not_ exist at 108 N. Columbus (or 108 S. Columbus)
and has not for some time, that address being occupied by a law firm.
It is not in the phone book either.

Please everyone, when you post about stuff like this, indicate when you
most recently visited a place.

As it stands, I know of nowhere "in this area" (meaning within 50 miles
of DC) to view and purchase a large variety of brands (meaning more
than ten) or not-often-seen brands of Habanero-based sauces.

Should I drive to Dewey Beach, or will I find that "Pepper's" is gone
too? Is my frustration showing? What is it about hot sauces that makes
all these places disappear? I suspect aliens seeking to deprive the
human species of the transcendant qualities of capsaicin! If you see
no more postings from me on this subject, you'll know why!
