    I haven't received an invite and really don't expect one. As the Bible says, "flesh and blood" cannot enter heaven and one has to become a spirit creature, I assume one will not require a change of undies.

    They write their signs before they go on strike, so steal the bosses time to do it first.

    Stones are not all exactly the same shade and sometimes it rains and they get wet. Then they are slippery.

    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    If you are where you wish to be, the answer is, "Yes", but if you are not where you wish to be the answer depends on whether you are where someone else wants you to be or not. If you are, then the answer is, "Yes", if you are neither where you want to be nor where someone else wants you to be, then the answer is "No."

    Dear Grandpa,

    I have a few questions for you:

    1. What is the most effective way to cook foods and retain most of the nutrients?

    2. Where are all of the treasures in Uncharted 3: Drakes' deception?

    3. Why can you not set water on fire if the breakdown of water includes

    - Hydrogen (Flammable)
    - Oxygen (Air source for fire)

    and you have a heat source to set them on fire?

    Cheers.
    Rest in peace Tony - you will be missed.

    1/ A pressure cooker.

    2/ They are hidden within the game and you must find them.

    3/ Compounds, which are two or more elements combined, form a new element without the individual properties of the original ingredients.

    Water is basically burnt Hydrogen. Oxygen is not flammable, it is a facilitator of burning called an Oxidiser. The waste product of a Hydrogen fuelled engine is water.

    Sorry you are wrong, here is a quote from the Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture...

    "... researchers investigated effects of various means of cooking broccoli. Up to 97 percent of certain antioxidant compounds were destroyed by microwaving, while steaming the broccoli caused only 11 percent loss. Therefore, any cooking that minimizes the time, temperature, and water will help to preserve nutrients. Pressure cooking under steam is one of the methods best because it minimizes time and requires little water."

    Yes but that only test for a select amount of antioxidant compounds in brocolli. Any other foods or nutrients lost?

    Slow is usually the best method, depending on what food you use. But it allows all of the natural sugars in the food to caramelise.

    Microwaving of foods is a safe and effective method of retaining the goodness overall of the food cooked. It compares well with pressure cooking and mostly is a matter of swings and roundabouts.

    Some may disagree, as there is much controversy about the different methods with some quoting some studies and others quoting another that seems to show slightly different results. However in general, pressure cooking is regarded as about the best method of cooking a wide variety of foods including meat and vegetables to retain their flavour and inherent goodness.
