Various sources claim 7 or 8 locations, but aside from one
mention of a Landover branch, the Laurel one has had all the
press. It's entirely possible that the others are not called
by the same name.

Not to my knowledge. I can't really figure what makes the
kid tick much of the time. Speaking of which, he seems to
be holding his paralegal job, but that means that he's
becoming more and more like a lawyer.

 DS> food poisoning was with some shrimp dumplings from Lotto market.

The other Korean place was so much better. Funny, as many of
the products actually are Lotte products.

 ML> When I'm with my urban friends,

 DS> You have our phone number:-}}

I've been doing 1 to 2 day hit and runs; if I'm stuck down
there for an extended period, I think I'll probably give
you a shout.
 
 ML> A good donut generally needs no more than 10 sec in the nuker.
 ML> Beyond that doesn't help.
 DS> I prefer a bit longer than 10 seconds at a very low power level.  Full

My experience has been mostly with the cake doughnuts,
which I think are best at 5 (if fresh) to less than
10 (if stale). Plus I learned this trick on a nuker
that had two or three settings only - either on-off
or on-half-off.
