This is interesting, but I subscribed for your comments and opinions on politics. Those used to appear several times a week, but now seem much less frequent. What should I expect in the months to come?

Say what you will Josh, but I've tried every method of preparing a steak you can name, and the consensus best results are produced by reverse-searing on a Big Green Egg (which explicitly doesn't allow fat to drip into the fire box, btw, and I keep it damned clean), and finishing on a cast iron skillet. I may live in the boonies now, but it wasn't so long ago that I was eating at Peter Luger's, Sparks etc pretty regularly. My meat compares favorably for sure according to those who've had both.

Frankly, I'm struck by the lazy strawmanning in this post, but then again, as an erstwhile Manhattanite, I totally understand the instinct to rationalize living in a cramped box you're paying out the nose for, so if believing the electric range in your apartment is the ultimate way to cook keeps you sane, well, so be it.
