I just this week had the same idea as you re: FoodTV show on fiery foods. I wrote to ChefChile and suggested he would be the perfect chef for such a show. John, I think your time has come and Alex provided all the info on contacting them with the idea. Whaddaya think? I also recently wrote to FoodTV and suggested they needed people who knew their chiles there after Bobby Flay told everyone that habs are the same thing as Scotch Bonnets. Maybe if they hear from enough of us.... Deb in Houston P.S. How about a show with both ChefChile and Rael cooking together? Dunno, would they have to censure Rael too much? :-) >> Well I really don't know that much about TV Shows, but I'm willing to learn. If you can pull Rael out of retirement then we can do a little "Tag Team Cooking with Rael and ChefChile". Get us an agent quick. Find us a Production Company and let's go. We'll need a Producer and writers and grips and lead grips and gaffers and lead gaffers not to mention MAKEUP and a Special Effects Department so that we can make a grand entrance on the show each day and so that they can show a mushroom cloud when we add our version of Emeril's "BAM". But I digress. I'm willing to do a show, but I really don't know that much about TV. John "ChefChile" Whalen
