A pan that takes a long time to reach temperature and remains hot
after you turn off the heat source makes no sense at all to me. I
suppose it could work if you have an unreliable heat source like a
wood fire or hot coals. Cast iron would make a lot of sense if
you're
camping or in the aftermath of WWIII which, according to the Donald,
is imminent. I better start looking for my CI pan. I ain't dumb!

What is ignorant is giving an opinion on another person's opinion. Do
you have an opinion of your own? You believe yourself oh so
superior but
you don't have a thing to say. Give your opinion on the pans, not me.

Old folks iz the craziest people. They think desktop Windows is the
besttest OS/PC in the world. It's not surprising that they still cook
with cast iron.
I want to cook food magnetically suspended in air with lasers capable of
reaching 1000 degrees in 1.5 seconds. That said, my guess is that cast
iron will get a bump in popularity by the younger generation who are
looking for something new and yet retro. That's fine. Young folks should
try new things.

And every one of them should learn to drive a 3 on the tree
transmission.

 Back in the 70's and 80's, I bought cars with manual transmissions. I
had a son at the time. By the time I had another son and then a
daughter, you could pretty much kiss that setup goodbye. Been there,
done that.

Too much back seat attention suck to be rowing your own all the time.

My daughter's ex wanted to give her his car with a 6sp manual. I spent
some time teaching my daughter how to drive manual. In the end, we
decided that it wasn't worth the hassle so we passed. My daughter's ex
is into manual though. He drives a new GTI. Whoa baby...

Yeah those are sweet, but they sure dicked up the controls with mutant flat panel-ism.
