Shaved Zucchini Salad With Parmesan And Pine Nuts

This just came across my radar in an email from epicurious.com and i am posting it here for safekeeping. Sounds perfect for using up those abundant squash! I am altering it a bit; the original recipe calls for 1/3 c oil and an unspecified amount of parmesan.
