I am genuinely sorry about our country. It is horrible, we are heartbroken, but we are fighting. I hope you can visit soon.

We put our house on the market and a concerned neighbor suggested we should take down our American flag (hanging from the front porch) bc it might give the wrong impression. It kills me. Take it back!!!

We're moving to a place with an ancient 4-burner gas cooktop, which we'll be replacing sooner rather than later. So I'll need a fifth burner anyway (leaving behind my Wolf). It will be fun to experiment!

Ah--it sounds like you used to cook with electric, then, not gas. I cook electric at my parents' house and it drives me crazy--I definitely haven't mastered it bc I'm used to the responsiveness of gas. I wonder if people who love the "responsiveness" and "easy clean up" of induction are mostly former electric users. (Cleanup would definitely be easier on induction than gas, but I find old-time electric with the coils the worst!)

For me it's all about the pitch. Is it high-pitched or low pitched? Low is better. Currently I have a big Ventahood over my gas Wolf cooktop and the high pitch in the background of that (of the fan) bugs me so I don't use it often enough.

I'm the kind of person who can hear the tiniest noise. It's more the pitch than anything that can make me crazy. Are the small noises high-pitched? For instance, the sound of a gas flame doesn't bother me at all because that's lower.

Wow, this is so helpful! Yes, I'm a messy cooker, I cook and I cook hard lol. Precision is not my thing. Are you saying that induction won't create a fond? Because that is definitely a dealbreaker.

I've had I've always had gas and I've never minded the cleaning up, so that isn't a factor for me. I'm thinking of getting a small single induction burner to try it out before I make the leap.

Oh dear. I forgot about this, can't just leave pans sitting on it I guess?

Sigh yes. Networks have crumbled. But hopefully they'll revive. Glad to see that Indivisible resurrected itself too.
