I can't identify the authorship of nakedwhiz.com. I don't know the
credibiity, nor the knowlege that generated all that rhetoric. As nicely
composed as it is, it's meaningless. I suspect it's all tied to marketing
in some semi clandestine fashion.

Again, to address my reply to sw about the same: As I said on a recent
thread, in response to your similar question: "One of the great things about
this and other NGs is knowing "Whadya doing now??". What are you doing
differently with que, grilling, and smoke that
you didn't do last time. It's OK to ask the fundamental questions now and
then. ...... Cooking, including outdoor cooking, is an ongoing evolutionary
event."

I find this to be ancient, almost worthless. We want to know what's relevant
today

> Buying the products and deciding for yourself will anwer the question.

That's a pretty expensive way to proceed. Most of us rely on what is
published, and as well, the experiences a NG poster has had about a product.
An individual's experience is frequently more helpful when published in this
NG, rather than something published in a domain, paricularly if you can't
identify the domain author. Those experiences are different now than they
were five years ago.

If you don't like my questions, don't respond. Your vitreolic responses and
your flaming does prevent a lot of questions from people who are more or
less forced to lurk, so they don't have to put up with your trolls, as as
this one.

Finally, I think you have little insight into backyard barbecue, where one
must compromise with equipment, fine detail, and monitoring. Yes, you did
run a business. That's not the same as our patios.
