(Snip info baout Okonomiyaki)

Given recent events on the ML however I seriously doubt she will be in the 
mood to repost it herself, as she has been kind enough to do in the past 
when the question of okonomiyaki has arisen, as it will now and again. I 
kept out of the recent non-fanfiction discussions because I simply did 
not know (or care!) enough about the issues involved to waste my time making 
pronouncements on topics I knew next to nothing about. Anybody with 
expertise or knowledge about any subject at all knows how annoying it is to 
hear people without that knowledge spouting their silly, unfounded

culture knows no bounds, and for which I think we all owe her a debt of 
gratitude that ought to be repaid in a much better fashion).

I agree, but ranting at people who MIGHT know what they're talking about
isn't the way to garner apologies and/or impress the fact of Hitomi's
kindness to the ML.

**Rant mode off**

Hope this helps. By the way, if I've gotten any of my facts wrong above 
please will someone correct me. I've posted only what I know about 
okonomiyaki, and that's not much. Certainly don't quote me.

On the Okomiyaki, no :)

NOW then...now that that's over with...if anyone wants, I've got two other
versions that look different than this one did...anyone want me to post the
others?  If so, I take no responsibility in their success...I grabbed 'em
off of the net a year of so back and aven't tried any of them yet...
