Thank you!

But, not to deflate the elegance of your reference, I would venture to make one small correction... the last pepper plant was not a sweet peppers, but a chile plant. There were sweet peppers, but they now, alas, are only dust... or perhaps compost.

i know, i know. (or rather, i assumed, i assumed.) i toyed with writing "good night, spicy pepper," but that messed with the reference a touch further than i wanted. oh, the demanding intellectual dilemmas of ripping off famous quotations...
