Odd to see a knobhead like you tying themselves in knots with misguided
semantics.

http://www.thefreedictionary.com/barbecue

1. A grill, pit, or outdoor fireplace for roasting meat.

http://www.thefreedictionary.com/grill

1. To broil on a gridiron.


By DEFINITION a gas grill performs BOTH functions nicely.

So, why are you such a moron?

Probably not the attic. We recently had another foot blown in,
and they did a marvelous job of sealing the hatch.

True. I suppose I could try closing all of the doors in the house.
It wouldn't be definitive, perhaps, because some previous owner trimmed
all of the doors when they installed carpeting, which we subsequently
ripped up. Nice hardwood floors underneath; pity they need refinishing.

Understood, has to be a window frame then.

You can get an inexpensive "smoke" leak tester at many hardware stores.

http://www.improvementcenter.com/win...air-leaks.html

http://www.plumbertools.com/smoke/resident.html

Seal the home, then start testing and you'll quickly find where the
leaks are.

Surprisingly electrical outlets are often the culprit.

They can be sealed up with expanding foam after shutting the breakers off.

True. AAMOF, I already have a very good headlamp, a Petzl LED with a USB
recharger. It is usually packed away with my kayaking gear so I never
thought of it. That would leave my hands free.

There are a lot of golf courses around here and almost every year some
rocket scientist plays Ben Franklin in a storm. We were at the dog park
last week and when a storm moved in we decided it was time to go. I
learned about the sirens that day. I had not realized that golfers were
so dumb that they had to use a siren, but I heard it go off that
day.

It is pouring down rain again at the moment. Thundering, too. My cat

It's pouring down again right now. Not my idea of an ideal cooking

Interesting. I don't need a "solution" since I don't cook outside in
the dark.

Three letters: LED

I will wait for one that is solar powered. I will be cooking within a
couple hours of sundown. I have a halogen powered light out there. For
the amount of time I would need to run it I am not concerned about the
cost.

I guess the truth is that I like to BBQ with a drink in my hand.

I got one as an impulse purchase at REI. I have no idea if I had a
reason for it. Perhaps playing off a music stand in low-light. In any
case the wife was carping during the winter about gleaning herbs and
vegetables at night. I mentioned the headlamp to her, and that was the
last I've seen of it. And the last of the carping too.

Similarly the children in our neighborhood won't go in despite being
called by their parents, despite the darkness until the parental tone
has shifted to steel and ice.

Your definition didn't explicitly exclude broiling (heat from above) or baking.

I just looked "barbecue" up and it just makes things more non-specific.

Um, no. I can't order in. I can't even get pizza delivered where I
live. Besides, I'd rather cook my own food. Just not outside when it's
pouring down rain. Which it is still doing. Rain, rain, rain.

There's a reason most people have kitchens indoors. I'm pretty good at

The 11th green, yep. The upside is it doesn't get cold.

Hey, I wasn't trying to talk you into it. I have a natural gas grill about 3 steps outside my kitchen door and it's under an overhang, so unless it's windy I won't get wet or need rain gear. It also has its own lights and I have lights installed that point at the grill because of a previous one that didn't have its own lights. In cold weather I don't hang around outside, I go out, turn the steak or chops or whatever and then step back inside. Don't even need a coat for the amount of time I spend out there when it's cold.

But, again, not trying to convince you to do anything you don't want or like to do.
