    After a few weeks, the humidity is driven out of the air, and humidity is what allows heat to transfer to/from your body more efficiently. Hit feels hotter when it’s humid, and the same with cold, however hot air can hold more moisture, so it tends to build humidity over time. After a couple weeks with cold weather, the humidity drops and the cold starts to feel less cold.

    As for the “you can’t clean it” it’s BS in and of itself. I use a chainmail scrubber to remove the big stuff, then soap and one of those green scrubbers to get it good and clean. The trick is, no matter how you clean it, you need to dry it COMPLETELY (I use paper towel) then oil it immediately. Doesn’t take much oil either, maybe a drop about the size of a nickel for a 12" skillet. My wife has alpha-gal syndrome, so all cookware needs to be thoroughly cleaned with soap and water, no exceptions.

    Once you get a good seasoning set in, it’s almost indestructible, unless you seriously mistreat it… and even then it’s fixed pretty easily with an SOS pad, oil, and an hour or two in a hot oven.

    My cast iron is more non-stick than any so-called ‘non-stick’ pan I’ve had, and I have one of those The Rock pans. I think the only caveat is you have to get a decent one. Anything made in China is no good (nothing necessarily about the casting or finish of the pans themselves, they just have very low quality iron); I personally buy Lodge, but there are a few other good brands to look in to.



  • claiming the outage cost you business or work time

    Virtually all service agreements for consumer internet/phone/etc have a limited liability clause that states the provider is only responsible to credit you for the portion of their service fees during the downtime and nothing else. To get compensation for lost business, you would need a special contract with specified uptime/speed/ping/etc minimum and specified penalties for downtime in excess of that minimum.
