Dimitri,

I don't doubt you in the least!

I can't think of a good Chinese restaurant nearby.

Kelsey Grammar (sp? "Frasier") showed off his kitchen on a TV show and the
stove came with a built-in "recessed" stir-fry burner. Must've had 100 gas
flame jets firing in a circle from below. When the wok sat in place you
couldn't see the flames.

That's another thing I noticed in ChefBalcer's videos was managing the
burners. Equally awesome to see! I'd've set it and forgot it! LOL!

Best,

Andy
