I Wanted To Figure Out How Long

If Your Kitchen Smells Good, Your Food Lost Something.

My Career At Microsoft Really Was Getting In The Way Of My Cooking.

My Company Invents All Kinds Of New Technology In Lots Of Different Areas. And We Do That For A Couple Of Reasons. We Invent For Fun - Invention Is A Lot Of Fun To Do - And We Also Invent For Profit. The Two Are Related Because The Profit Actually Takes Long Enough That If It Isn't Fun, You Wouldn't Have The Time To Do It.

With Cult Foods, There Is An Underlying Assumption That The Best Cooking Ideas Came Generations Ago. Yet Culinary Innovation Is Nothing To Be Ashamed Of. When A Chef Tells Me He Is Cooking With His Grandmother's Recipe, I Always Wonder Why. Did Talent Skip The Past Two Generations?

One Of The Things That I Love To Do Is Travel Around The World And Look At Archaeological Sites. Because Archaeology Gives Us An Opportunity To Study Past Civilizations, And See Where They Succeeded And Where They Failed. Use Science To, You Know, Work Backwards And Say, 'well, Really, What Were They Thinking?'
