So that experience didn't give you any thoughts that it wasn't the most
effective way to cook? It sure would for me. Electric doesn't run out,
unless of course there's a power outage, and so many gas stoves these
days have electronics in them to use so they won't work in power outage
either.

I don't have the option for gas in my house either, and having to deal
with something like a propane tank that has to be kept up doesn't appeal
to me. Too much planning involved.
