Here's a submission I would like to make to the Fluxus Cookbook:

How to Boil Water: A Simple Recipe

INGREDIENTS: Water
THINGS I NEED: Large Pot
STEPS:
1. Fill large pot 1/2 full with water
2. Put pot on a large burner on your stove.
3. Turn burner knob to "high."
4. Wait until water boils (water boiling when large bubbles are rapidly coming to the top of the water).
5. It's ready!


Actual recipe from "How To Boil Water" <http://geocities.com/howtoboilwater/index.htmlFrom>


I've been exploring the whole Do-it-yourself/how-to-do-it realm lately and have become enamored with the instructions and recipes that exist for doing the simplest things...vibrates my Fluxus tuning fork. Also remarkable how difficult (if not impossible) it is to give complete and fool-proof instructions for even the simplest things (e.g., lots of situational variations or complications not covered in above recipe...like not having a stove....like altitude...like what exactly are "large: bubbles?).




I haven't forgotten the Fluxlist Cookbook. Hopefully next
year.............sorry for the drag-on factor :)

cheers,

Sol.
