Mark!
 DM>> Francis Bacon - ok, but what is beacon/becon (from kitchen)?
 ML> i'm not exactly sure about the question but bacon is what americans call
 ML> thin sliced pork belly that we fry generally for breakfast...
 ML> some pics here:   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacon
And next link is "beef".
Beef is the culinary name for meat from cattle, particularly skeletal muscle. Humans have been eating beef since prehistory. Beef is a source of protein and nutrients :)

 ML> on the mixing of bacon and beacon, it is likely another english play on
 ML> words that sound similar... we know that bacon is thin sliced pork that
 ML> is fried... a beacon is a signal device showing the location of
 ML> something... a lighthouse on the sea shore is a beacon... the rotating
 ML> white and green light at airports is a beacon... there are also radio
 ML> beacons used for travel...
What radio beacons are used for travel?
