Hear hear! Why not 4 or 3? That's my new position. Shorter queue times.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

Well lets try this first. I have nightmares about waking up one day and seeing the queue completely empty. Gotta have coal in the furnance. Or gotta have unsifted flour - choose your metaphor.

A little anecdote- I sort of wanted our site to be called "videoFilter" a bit of a rip-off of MetaFilter, a site which has a really nice community - but I was making pancakes using my favourite recipe with a sifter and the flour was coming out all nice and light leaving husks and weevil wings in the sifter, and it hit me.

Here is a great recipe for pancakes, you can't go wrong if you follow this, I found it on the Internet somewhere, but don't know the original source - sorry for the lack of credit.

VideoSift Pancakes

Sift before measuring*:

1-1/2 c. all-purpose flour

Resift with:

1 t. salt
3 T. sugar (optional, but tastes really good, can use maple syrup)
1-3/4 t. baking powder

Combine:

1 or 2 slightly beaten whole eggs
3 T. melted butter or vegetable oil
1 to 1-1/4 cups milk

Mix liquid ingredients quickly into the dry ingredients. Ignore the small lumps. Let the batter sit for about 20 minutes while you warm up the griddle. Put a little butter or oil in the pan.

I'll try that...
