There is a LOT of discussion in net.cooks that doesn't include recipes: the best type of cookware; is it a good idea or not to get a microwave oven and why; I'm having a problem getting something to turn out right, anyone have any suggestions on how to make whatever work; requests for recipes; etc. A new group should be created that is a "subgroup" of net.cooks, such as "mod.cooks.recipes." I say mod. rather than net. since a volunteer has stepped forward to moderate it and edit any posted recipes as needed to format them for a net cookbook. -- ************************************************************** Suzanne Barnett-Scott uucp: ...{decvax,ihnp4,noao,savax,seismo}!terak!suze phone: (602) 998-4800 us mail: CalComp/Sanders Display Products Division (Formerly Terak Corporation) 14151 N 76th street, Scottsdale, AZ 85260
