I don't know if you need to register at the Chow Hound site to read postings or not, but give this link <http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/658112> a try if you are curious about some possible strategies for neutralizing the cap burn when handling those hot babies. So far the discussion has not, remarkably, strayed into knuckle dragger territory, but give it time. I also want to give notice that I've uploaded about 100 pictures of my visit to this years Open Fields ® to my Picasa album. As soon as I can remember what the link is, I'll send it to the list. They are not all that great a set of pix, but, if you were there, you'll get to relive the vibe, at least. Peter Hirsch
