User:Egil

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

My name is Egil Kvaleberg, and I live in Oslo, Norway. I've had a Wikipedia account since January 23, 2003. You can reach me by email via egil at kvaleberg.no.

My drop-in-the-sea contribution to Wikipedia has been centered around still photography, optics, computing (esp, microcomputer hacker culture), automobiles, physics, digital signal processing, skiing, historical weights and measures, geography of Norway, current events and handling of geographical coordinates. I also try to keep Nobot under leash.

Saffron

A pile of saffron threads (each about 20 mm in length) from Iran. Saffron is a spice derived from the flower of the saffron crocus and is among the world's costliest spices by weight. In Western countries, the average retail price is $2200/€1550/£1100 per kilogram ($1,000/€700/£500 per pound). Besides its use as a seasoning, it has also used in its history as fragrance, dye, and medicine.
