The vendor's got several kinds available in that cart, not just husks 
and not just fresh. I prefer fresh, but the slightly fermented ones are 
good too. I grew up on coconut and sugar cane. In India, they're better 
in Bangalore/Chennai. Delhi has the brown ones we're used to in the 
states, mostly. Here in Texas, I can only get sugar cane over in the 
Asian part of town. Coconut's available, but it's a pale reflection of 
fresh and the brown's only good for cooking and candy bars.

I wonder if there's any connection with Unix and coconuts aside from 
this umbrella?
