Maize/corn is the same plant, from the genus called Zea. In agriculture it is called maize, which is the name for the entire plant. When cooked I know it as corn-on-the-cob (corncob), the kernels being called "sweet corn".

In Britain "corn" is the generic term for any cereal crop - wheat, oats, barley etc. It has been that way since Anglo Saxon times, from an old Germanic word - Korn. That same general name for grain also passed over the Atlantic, the first settlers calling maize "Indian corn".?

We also have corn maze, instead of corn maize.

Thanks for the corn info!!

Used a drop off box this year, and got word yesterday that the ballot had been collected and entered in the system.:thumbsup:

I put stamps on ours and deposited them in the mail chute inside the post office some days ago. Supposedly the post office will deliver them even without stamps, but I decided to not risk it.

I dropped ours off at the post office on the 13th. Mine was recorded on the 16th and my wife's on the 19th :confused3: I'm afraid that no matter what happens half the people in this country are going to be very unhappy. Hopefully not violently unhappy.

I finally got some more shop time, here are some progress pics. The 2 side panels are ready for planing, couple mid-planks glued and clamped, some more laid out ready for gluing. Picked / cleaned up my mess, ready for when we get back from early voting.
