| I will undoubtedly regret this, but here goes. The net is indeed WWW, and
| the participants in this newsgroup hail from all over the globe. So it's
| not mandatory that dishes mentioned all be named the way they would be in
| the US, nor is it mandatory to post only recipes listing ingredients
| familiar to everyone in the US. There are most certainly more US based
| websites and therefore more hits that will come up giving the pepper steak
| recipe with which you are familiar.
|
| However, it is also possible to find recipes for pepper steak (an English
| translation of steak au poivre that has become the common name used here)
| of the type known here, and they're not only Australian sites.

|
| If someone based in the US posts a recipe here which goes by a name that is
| not familiar to me, or is in fact a name I use for a different dish, I'll
| research it. Ask some questions. Look up the unfamiliar ingredients. I
| might comment on the difference.
|
| I'm sure that in the US a reference to pepper steak is to a dish using
| steak and green capsicums. I know that in Australia a reference to pepper
| steak is to a steak in a creamy pepper sauce. It's possible for both to
| exist in the same space time continuum.

Thank you, Rhonda. Everyone with half a brain knows what you point
out, but you must of course realize that in dealing with Sheldon you are
engaging one of the most ignorant people still extant on the planet.
Just an inherently stupid, too-dumb-to-educate ex-Navy scullion.
