I agree. so, you don't see it as a problem if I write it as chilli/chillies? will US-based site members know I'm referring to hot pods, not bowls of beans and ground beef?

I will. 
Chili con carne is a spanish dish americans call chilli whereas chile is a Sth american country. What they call a pepper, we call a capsicum, and so they have chili peppers they use in their chilli & pepper in their salad, but not the same pepper they use on their eggs. For the sake of the forum I say any of the above is a hot pod & i'll need another beer 
yeah, I'm over it now. I know what I mean, if others don't I'm sure they'll ask.

Uh...WHAT?
Grow List update version 5.0
well here it is, the fifth and undoubtedly (not) the last version of my 2007 Grow List:
http://www.thechileman.org/growing_...81,1874,706,1133,1373,1379,1346,1364,1769,204
I've gone from a possible 5 or 6 varieties with a max of 23 plants to now a potential 40 plants from 13 varieties and all to be grown in containers.
as you can see, I like my habs! I've got some other varieties that I will have to wait until next year:
Rebentona
Scutaba
Peach Hab
Burkina Yellow
White (Jelly Bean) Hab
Red Hab
Thai Birdseye
plus a strange Orange Hab that is thin and pointy can't work out what it is so I saved some seed and will grow a few next year (too many superhot exciting ones to grow at the moment). they look a lot like these http://www.thechileman.org/member/r...ny&origin=Any&genus=Any&chile=1&submit=Search only regular orange colour with similar heat to Orange Habs, good number of pods about 1 - 1.75 inches in length, no I didn't take any pics. anyone know what they might be? I bought the plant from a nursery and it was just labelled as a habanero and was about 6 inches tall.

Save some space for a few birdhabs chilliman - I tried another pod few days ago & they're going to be hot & hab flavored. It had 10 seeds so just waiting for 1 more to ripen then I'll send seeds. Should be just another week or 2.
Don't need much space for them though - they fit 2 plants to a 100 mm pot & reach 6" high. Haven't had 2 pods the same shape yet.

sounds like a chile garden in one plant 
you might be onto something there to maximise variety and save space!
birdhabs, can't wait.
another cross I have been thinking about is Bhut x Cayenne...

I can't find any reference anywhere for the Scutaba, that's how they were named on the seed packet - Simpsons Seeds - UK
Pam said:
they're not the Lanterns and I don't think they are the Aussie Lanterns either, not quite as pointy or as big in the shoulders, more a constant shape from the shoulders then rapidly tapering to a point at the end. I had searched there also, thanks for looking.
hah every time i see your avatar, i get that damned peanut butter jelly time song stuck in my head. 
you'll have to sing it to me because we didn't get that one in Oz as far as I can remember
