I don't mind being insulted when I deserve it, but cshenk was out of
line this time. I didn't preface my comment with something like,
"schenk is an idiot." If it weren't for your reply, some folks--
especially those who have me k/f'ed--might not get the info that
kidney beans should not be cooked in a slow cooker on the low
setting. Whatever else I am, I'm not an idiot.
