Really. Any chance we could organize and set up an
answer to this question? Every time we get an active
new member of the List, they seem to want to improvise
Mediecal cuisines before they have really learned how
to cook them. Maybe a well set-up generic, "Why we
don't improvise until we do it their way" post might
save some of our fingers.....

Now that I have my computer set up, how much of this
is online, where, in which language? I don't have the
contents of my old hard drive yet, so if you could
send me the urls (either language is fine, though I'd
prefer the originals), I'd very much appreciate
it.....
