Charbroil Red
Hi Folks,
I was looking into possibly purchasing a Charbroil Red, which is the latest thing they offer in their infrared category. I know that last years Charbroil Tec was a disaster, but maybe they have gotten it right finally. My question to the group: what might be the difference in food taste between the typical open flame grill and infrared. Last years model was a hybrid with half the grill being infrared and the other half a standard open flame. Charbroil touted it then as the best of both worlds. Seems they have abandoned one half of that equation for the 2008 Red. Thanks, Howard |

I have been a reader and a sometimes contributor to this group for years. I
post a question and for whatever reason, it is in a bad format. And I get flamed. Very nice hospitality. Thanks to all.

What cracks me up is I'm the one that mentioned the html, and even used the word 'please' when I asked that the html be dropped. Besides, aren't flames a part of outdoor cooking?

Thanks to all. Besides the annoying top-posting, if you think THAT was being flamed, well, you obviously haven't really been flamed. That was at best "pointed".

I would also suggest downloading the free shareware OE QuoteFix. It goes a long way to solving some of the more aggravating problems, especially the automatic placement of the cursor at the bottom of the post being replied to. http://www.freewr.com/freeware.php?d...tefix&lid=1429 I've used it for years now, and it works just as advertised. -- Dave www.davebbq.com |

Google Groups uses quoted-printable in some messages, and OE balks on that, leaving off the quote markers in replies.

OE with QuoteFix solves that problem, too. Each different author in a thread has a different color so the reader can easily distinguish who says what. |

XanaNews will do color coding for about three levels deep, but I don't particularly care for that so I have them all set to black.

It does what it does. For one thing it does not modify OE, it sits in front of it and handles chores for it. You can fire up your OE anytime without engaging Quotefix and it will work in it's original configuration. SeaMonkey mail is my second choice newsreader and I use it whenever I want to attach multiple pictures to the same post. Oh, by the way. OE Quotefix is not a plugin. It's a standalone utility that works in conjunction with OE without actually modifying the original program. -- Brick(Never bring a knife to a gunfight.) |

One thing, If you use quotefix, you have to uncheck the spell check box that ignores the origonal text in a reply. Otherwise it hoses your reply. In the end you end up fixing everyone's spelling mistakes, e-mail addresses, and nicknames, etc. |
