There was a notice this morning in Local Chat that his power supply had blown
chunks. I'm glad to see the board back up - even if I don't post from there
often, it's handy to check message propagation.

That was it. Power supply and UPS. Apparently FP&L has some pretty nifty
surges.

 I cut and pasted that into Firefox and got a "could not connect" nasty-gram.
Do you have the tel-net addy?

It adds a bit of sweetness and "comfort food" flavour. Molasses is pretty
common in dried bean dishes. As is

      Title: Texas Baked Beans
 Categories: Beans, Pork, Vegetables, Fruits
      Yield: 7 Servings
 
      1 lb Navy beans; picked over
      8 oz Slab bacon; rind removed,
           - in 1/2" dice
      1 lg Onion; coarse chopped
      1    Red bell pepper; cored,
           - seeded, in 1/4" dice
      1    Green bell pepper; cored,
           - seeded, in 1/4" dice
     28 oz Plum tomatoes; drained,
           - coarse chopped, (juice
           - reserved)
    1/2 lb Honey-baked ham; in 1/4"
           - dice
    1/2 lb Smoked pork chop
      1 c  Ketchup
    3/4 c  Dark-brown sugar
    1/4 c  Honey
    1/4 c  Dark molasses
      1 tb Worcestershire sauce
      1 ts Dry (Colman's style) mustard
      2    Tart apples; peeled, cored,
           - in 1" cubes
           Salt
 
  Soak the beans in water to cover overnight. Drain and rinse
  several times.
  
  In a large, heavy pot, place the beans and add enough water
  to cover them by 2-inches. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat
  to medium, and simmer for 45 minutes or until the beans are
  just tender but nut mushy, skimming off any foam that rises
  to top. Drain and reserve.
  
  Preheat the oven to 350øF/175øC.
  
  In another heavy, ovenproof pot, place the bacon. Cook the
  bacon over low heat until the fat is just rendered -- do not
  brown the bacon. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon and
  set aside. Add the onion and cook over low heat for 10
  minutes or until wilted. Add the red and green peppers and
  cook with onion, stirring, for 5 minutes more. Add the beans
  and reserved bacon. Add all the remaining ingredients except
  the apples, reserved tomato juice, and salt; gently fold
  together.
  
  Cover and bake in the preheated oven for 2 hours. Add the
  apples and 1/2 cup of the reserved tomato juice. Bake,
  uncovered, for 2 hours more. Adjust the seasonings and
  serve hot and bubbly.
  
  Makes 6 to 8 servings.
