Guys - a few comments,
First, I like induction cooking. My son has one and has his entire pot/pan collection is based around it. For me, the installation cost was steep and my wife FAR prefers to be able to "see" the heat she is cooking with (propane). She is also very attached to her pricey copper bottom Revere pans (that do not work with induction). After 35 years of marital bliss, I am not going to rock that boat ! Secondly, we can't see the facial expressions, tone or other highly important clues when we read these posts. Some estimate that at least half of face to face communication is based on these clues as well as posture etc. So let's not confuse directness with bullying. If AC starts a thread, I can well understand that he wants to keep it in line and not diverted all over creation like many chat sites do. I may disagree with some of his perspectives, but who cares - they are HIS perspectives. He has dinged me several times and I just keep on going along with my perspectives. But he offers very good insights as well. Yes, I prefer perhaps a "softer approach/rebuke", but if everyone was in the kum by ahh land, then how boring would that be? Lastly, many people with an engineering approach (many of us here) are not the best at soft speaking and listening. They have their mission, have the data and are driven to the end (damn the torpedos, full speed ahead)! Let's not overinterpret what we read for malignant behaviors based at any of us. SO THERE AND TAKE THAT !! Steve ha!
