I 'inherited' that site a few years back, and am trying to incorporate the choco theme into political debate as I'm no baker, nor a fanatic about chocolate. It is a good site for discussions as a reply automatically creates a notification which is sent to the person posted to. I started in Delphi back when they had an O'Reilly forum long since gone. Entelechy, thank you.

I checked out your site before and it looks like fun. Btw - I'm a 'nut' but I don't like chocolate, unless it's straight out of a factory in Belgium (not because I'm snooty, but because once you eat it that way, nothing else comes close; the good ones make it with whipping cream and not with butter, thus it doesn't last long). But I do like to cook and checked out several posters on your site :) Great job! Looks like lots of work to maintain the site. Danno, glad you liked it.
