	Brazil Nut - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Brazil nuts only produce fruit in virgin forests, as forests that are not virgin usually lack an orchid that is indirectly responsible for the pollination of the flowers.
		The Brazil nut, in addition, is known as one of the world's most radioactive foods, due to the tree's accumulation of radium from the soil into the nut.
		The nuts are also pressed for oil; as well as for food use, Brazil nut oil is also used as a lubricant in clocks and for making artists' paints.

	Saddle and Nut compensation, intonation - Discussion Forums
		I agree that nut compensation is probably not necessary on the vast majority of guitars, but I do believe it can yield positive results, and that its effects are are not negated by the use of a capo.
		With a properly compensated nut, the capoed note is actually under slightly lower tension, which serves to flatten the note made sharp by the capo.
		I have patiently waded through the compensated nut idea with guitarists and banjoists (whose strings are as slack as classical guitarists’ are) and can’t buy the case for a compensated nut, conceptually or practically.

	True History of the Peanut
		This seeming defect, which is certainly not present in any other nut that I'm aware of, actually dates back to a limitation of the very first peanut ovens, which must now be faithfully replicated in all new peanuts, in order to cover up the charade.
		Over the years, the actual materials used to make the shell have changed, but they have maintained the property that the nut always shrinks more than the shell during baking, which is why the peanut is so loose in its shell, while most natural nuts are much more firmly held.
		In fact, the peanut used to be touted as a true nut that grew on trees (although old textbooks with these facts and accompanying illustrations are now very hard to find), but as travel become more common, people began to wonder why they never saw peanut orchards.
