Buchan,
I'm for leaving it where it is, and for having you bring these things up on
the general list. Maybe everyone isn't interested, but SOME will be, and
might not know they are until / unless they see a post about something and
think "Hey, that's cool, let me try it" or "me too" or whatever.
Heck, during the last minute crunch we were getting hundreds of e-mails per
day, and the delete key got a workout. I don't mind that on the cooker
list.
Now if they were posts for generic vxxagra, THEN maybe.. but not for legit
cooking.
Regards,
Vinny
