Goog point Wayne.
But, (you knew that was comin' didnja? ;-) )

I have a *huge* aluminum pot that I use for live lobsters.
I'm not exactly sure of the size but I'd guess that it's at
least 22qt. I can cook 4, 2 pound lobsters in it with no
problem. I use it on the glass top and have no issues at all.

Not saying that I don't believe you or anything but I've
personally never seen anything that it won't handle. Maybe I
just am not doin' what causes the problem.
