That's what happens when you give Iranian nuclear scientists Facebook accounts.

Dead animal skin...'nuff said.

Oh, piss off! It's supposed to tell time, not make you guess!

Maybe next incarnation...

That's why EMTs say 'he's not dead until he's warm and dead'.

I see nothing bad here...unlike a certain grape juice experiment we will now cease to talk about.

@whormongr: In the wrong hands.

I'm a Westerner who's owned a rice cooker (about the size of a can of dog food) for the requisite two decades and I've always been frustrated by its limitations. Sounds like an upgrade is the smart move.

@daytripper1: I have tried many new things, but one also plays the odds.

Like barbecue and sushi, I'll leave the winemaking to the professionals.

There's also some maximally creepy devices used to teach obstetrics in the 19th century.

@adamczar: Tea needs to be steeped for between 3-5 minutes, so the timer was the killer app for me.

Take what's showing.

I confess that I was on the fence about an iPhone until I noticed the timer and realized I'd never have to estimate steeping time again.

@ka1axy: You might be steeping at too high a temperature. If it's right for coffee, it's probably right for your green tea.

@reddyroc: My sister received a packet of tea from a friend in Kolkata; it's interesting stuff.

@bustedchain: I tend to use a teapot so I use the take-the-kettle-off-the-heat-and-count-to-thirty method. If you have one of those hot-water taps in your kitchen, that's usually close enough for rock 'n' roll.

That would be really cool, if I didn't have relatives who like to show their travel snaps.

I'm fond of both beverages, but I find that teas have more flavor diversity and it's much easier to hit the sweet spot in terms of preparation.
