I just mentioned this thread to Miche in rfc chat this evening... I've
noticed it too. I think people are tired of being attacked by the
likes of Brian the Food Snob and various others who love to pick at
ingredients and or spelling mistakes.

You can't have it both ways. You get people talking about what they
cooked with a recipe that is in all likelihood not professionally
written or you don't get one at all. Most people don't have thick
enough hides to take the pointed criticism/hostility so they choose
not to post recipes and only talk in generalities about cooking... if
they even do that much.

I love cooking with wine.
Sometimes I even put it in the food.
