Encyclopedias are traditionally rich on technology articles.  Doesn't follow
that they must be cookbooks.  By the way, I cook, but rarely consult a
recipe - occasional reference to Mrs. Beeton.  Articles about cooking - that
I could support.  Not recipes.

group - anyone interested?  Now, if we could get them started ...
