Dear Ron

Do you understand the shortcomings of the WBT?

      How about this one:

     "A stove is an apparatus to which one can meaningfully apply the GACC WBT 4.2.2 procedures."   (Meaningfully meaning one can get out of group 1 results.)

  Yesterday was Cinco de Mayo - and Denver has the US largest celebration.  I bought a wonderful ear of corn ($3.00), that took 20 minutes to "roastl"  (husk-on) in a gas-powered chain driven  "oven-roaster" (but not a stove), with the corn travelng about 20 feet, with maybe 15 feet undergoing  roastng.   I can't see a way to apply any WBT to this device.    I can barely see it for most of the other "apparati"  being proposed

  Ron

  I apologize for the "is a pig on a stick over a fire a stove?" question.

  I hope I did not cause the waist of too many man hours on such a silly 
  question.

  To settle this issue so we can move on to more serious topics, I think I 
  finally have a definition for a stove that we can all agree on: When I saw 
  Crispin's photo of the skewers on a grill it came to me!

  Stove: an apparatus that puts the heat, on the meat, so to speak. smile
