Why Engineers Don't Write Cookbooks

Chocolate Chip Cookies:
Ingredients:
1.) 532.35 cm3 gluten
2.) 4.9 cm3 NaHCO3
3.) 4.9 cm3 refined halite
4.) 236.6 cm3 partially hydrogenated tallow triglyceride
5.) 177.45 cm3 crystalline C12H22O11
6.) 177.45 cm3 unrefined C12H22O11
7.) 4.9 cm3 methyl ether of protocatechuic aldehyde
8.) Two calcium carbonate-encapsulated avian albumen-coated protein
9.) 473.2 cm3 theobroma cacao
10.) 236.6 cm3 de-encapsulated legume meats (sieve size #10)

To a 2-L jacketed round reactor vessel (reactor #1) with an overall heat transfer coefficient of about 100 Btu/F-ft2-hr, add ingredients one, two and three with constant agitation. In a second 2-L reactor vessel with a radial flow impeller operating at 100 rpm, add ingredients four, five, six, and seven until the mixture is homogenous. To reactor #2, add ingredient eight, followed by three equal volumes of the homogenous mixture in reactor #1.

Additionally, add ingredient nine and ten slowly, with constant agitation. Care must be taken at this point in the reaction to control any temperature rise that may be the result of an exothermic reaction. Using a screw extrude attached to a #4 nodulizer, place the mixture piecemeal on a 316SS sheet (300 x 600 mm). Heat in a 460K oven for a period of time that is in agreement with Frank & Johnston's first order rate expression (see JACOS, 21, 55), or until golden brown.

Once the reaction is complete, place the sheet on a 25C heat-transfer table, allowing the product to come to equilibrium.

no, no, no...it's Post Hole Digger...

Number five works for Microsoft.

Not 'girl', 'woman'!

It was a compliment.....I can flatter with impunity as I am not an engineer........

engineers can't tell what is said without a calculator.

[phantomworker]

Once trained as an enganeer, always an enganeer. It's the calculus that warps the mind. LOL!

[Lakeshark]

I remember.....I try to forget........

[phantomworker]

Question: If nerds live on the west coast and geeks live on the east coast, what are you called in the midwest? ;)

[Lakeshark]

Bad question from ill-educated nerd who forgot how to google....

I am on EST.

[phantomworker]

AA is ET?

[Lakeshark]

Absolutely....it's 12:45.

[phantomworker]

Btw, I like compliments better than deprecation. ;) I do enough self-deprecation the way it is. LOL!
What was that mantra again? The Dark Queen is...

[Lakeshark]

less powerful than she thinks......

:-)

[phantomworker]

Then its' geek time. Better hit the grindstone again... Hope you're having a nice day...;)

[Lakeshark]

Just had to.....

[Lakeshark]

Yep....back to the grind. Just finished lunch.

There has been a Purdue engineer involved in every great successful engineering project since the mid 19th century. By the same token there has been a Purdue engineer involved in every great engineering disaster since the mid 19th century.

[phantomworker]

Even less than I think!!! Don't hate me because I am beautiful!! There's no conceit in my family, it all went to you!!!!LOL!!!

Many years ago I knew an engineer working on the Apollo Program and if you asked him, "What time is it?"

He would tell you how to build a watch...

[Lakeshark]

Didn't understand that last post......

*Must turn on calculator*
