I was introduced to that little factoid in a similar fashion. A guy I
knew was in a multi-level-marketing scheme for some brand of waterless
cookware and he was both trying to hustle me to buy a set of his pots
and pans and to sign me up as an underling. I passed on both of those
"opportunities". But I did learn a few things from the demo he did.  Bv)=
