I've done all the cooking for the past 35 yrs, but tonight I cooked perch (sea variety) for the first time. Mild, firm, moderately fat; takes well to fresh thyme and a trace of good Parmigiano. |

Mitty -
Thanks a lot. I do plan to participate in the books forum, and would like to do the the whole East of Eden thing. I am moving 1500 miles away at the end of November and am a little busy packing and planning, etc., so I may not get through it in time to contribute that much. Once I get settled, though, I can't wait to get started on such pursuits! |

| I thought the time would change automatically, but so far it hasn't. Is Lorne in charge of that? |

Roger Ebert (in today's Answer Man column) takes the gloves off. I love it when that happens.
Q. I really enjoyed "Sky Captain," but I think I know why it failed at the box office. The sepia tone was fatal to the movie's success. Sometimes people who appreciate movies love a new style. Yet for the vast majority of people, a new innovative style distracts from the story line.

A. I wonder if you're correct. I thought the color was the perfect choice for the material, evoking as it did the rotogravure newspaper sections of the period, but of course no one under 40 has seen rotogravure, and wit and style can turn off slack-jawed action fans. I've been saying for years that black and white is more mysterious and evocative than color, but lots of people continue to "hate" it, little realizing how much that reveals about their taste. |

Allie, welcome! When I first discovered these guys at NYT, it took me a looooong time to finally speak up -- but I'm glad I did. And I'm glad you have.
Billy, you are in control of time -- you and you alone! Heady stuff, I know. Here's what you do:
1. Go to Profile.
2. Scroll down to the Timezone box.
3. Since you're on the East Coast, change it to say GMT - 5 hours.
4. Submit, baby.
Voila -- you are now back to "normal." |
