This will be posted on all forums to which I belong. Since this journey began for me:
1) Pretty much the same ingredients have been used by nearly everyone, ad nauseam.
2) Many recipes have resembled mathematical formulas from calculus class.
3) Many have portrayed an adulterer, as some sort of saint.
4) Some degrade, and denounce, or discredit most recipe suggestions given by various members.
5) Some claim to have the "relevant document, interview, or pertinent information" that reveals the Original Recipe, or the magical ingredients, but never releases
that information, for various legal or copyright reasons.
6) Many want to discuss this research privately, although this is a "group" forum of folks working together. If there are moles, take it as part of the process.
You don't have to swallow everything.
So, if someone has the "secret", then why in the Hell should I even continue to try? This is what all of these notions have done to research.
If you have the recipe, then reveal it, or STFU.
