So nice to chat with you last night Horry! Well, night for me at least ;-)

For the others, he meant pouring boiling liquids and for flames meant things
like flambe's or since he was specifically addressing cake making, those
little blow torches you see chefs with on TV. Stuff like that. Not normal
things like heating a soup or using a burner on the stove (or in his case,
mentioned hot plates being what they have and use mostly).

Sensible. Charlotte wasnt allowed to dump over a pot of boiling pasta from
the stove to the sink colander at that age either.
