Oh, but Stefan, this was a POT on the stove, back before my mom would
buy microwave popcorn!  You should've seen the flames shooting up.
My grandfather heard my cry of shock from his farmhouse on the other
side of the field.

And I know the trials of being evicted by microwave fires.  That
happened a lot my freshman year in college.  3 times in one semester.
 They didn't replace the thing after the 3rd time.

Thanks for the ideas, Stefan.  I'm also getting accustomed to cooking
on a gas stove.  Never had one of those growing up.
