Ms. Burros, thanks so much for doing this Q&A. Before I ask my question, I just want to say that the hot dogs in mustard and currant sauce recipe from the original Elegant But Easy cookbook is the greatest thing in the world. I believe there would be no questions about Thomas Keller's potential success in the Time Warner Center if he served those things instead of that oyster-and-tapioca concoction.

My question is this: when you're not here doing a Q&A with us, do you ever get the opportunity to read eGullet? If so, do you have any opinions about the site and the community?
