Well, YOU may think documentation is fun, and so may lots of other folks, 
but not everyone does. 

Personally, I find the history of food (and a great many other things) 
fascinating, but I find research is a DRAG.  This is the main reason I 
haven't gone back to school to get a "Pile it Higher and Deeper" degree - 
all it really means is having to do research for the rest of my life! 

I'd rather cook good food and serve it to appreciative people, not beat them 
over the head with my phone-book sized pile of documentation while they're 
eating.
