I figured if they truly were all powerful, they could do anything, which would include binding powers and killing. I thought of it this way: if you set two equally powerful fighters against each other, that doesn't mean nobody gets hurt--they still inflict damage upon one another. However, match one powerful against one really weak, and the chances the powerful one is damaged is small. My worry was that if one knew what the other knew, and they really were supreme, wouldn't one know where the other is in order to not kill them? I felt the absolute cover of darkness/nothingness was my way out though. It also helped to tie into the yin-yang, the Taoist duality of black and white. I am super happy you liked it though :) Dunno how to play Weiqi, hahaha, I only know Chinese Chess. Wiki has an article on Weiqi! Happy holidays! Hmm didn’t it make sense?

I don't think they ever would/could though. It didn't make sense that one of them could remove the powers of the other, I would have thought it'd work better if he inflicted the 'spell' (or whatever) on himself. Also, being able to kill the brother who is supposedly the same kind of being as you? I would have thought the sadness would be what killed him, or maybe suicide.

However, the article does note that PFOA was indeed found, albeit little amounts. The other very important thing to note is that it was only heated to 400°F (204°C,) for one below the maximum recommendation of 500°F (260°C,) and for two, there’s actually a decently good chance home users will take the temperature up to the maximum limit or higher. In all my shared cooking experiences I’ve never seen anyone follow the “only use with low to medium heat” recommendation (or warning?)<br /><br />Of course, this could all be settled if everyone kept a bird in their kitchen and simply cooked as normal for an hour. If the bird dies, the jig is up.<br /><br />Also, the tests didn’t mention if any of the pans were scratched, especially over longer periods than six months—scratched pans will obviously release more than ones whose surfaces are intact.<br /><br />Still, thank you for the article. If you do have any additional information that proves the maximum temperature still being safe, scratched or no, then I’d certainly be willing to read about it. Hi Ross,
