| Koohii Story 1 | "Maybe the Japanese ought to rethink their nickname for America. Seriously, the only ""rice"" I have seen in the wild west is foxtail millet." |
| Koohii Story 2 | "West, rice: In the old west there was a special type of plant (it's now extinct): the foxtail millet. It behaved like regular millet, but when somebody wanted to reap it, it ran away as quick as a fox, leaving a small trail of rice." |
