A couple of years ago, on PBS TV, there was a movie about the late Indira Ghandi, focusing on her home and family life. At one point in the movie she picked up a mango and addressed one of her grandchildren, about 5 years old, and she said, "Now watch, this is the proper way to eat a mango". I leaned forward with anticipation. At last! I was going to learn how to do it right! Unfortunately, the editor cut out what immediately followed, and cut to something totally different. So now, I'm doomed to make a mess every time I enjoy a mango.
