I dont think you can rule out the possibility of a small localized
(like from one side of the die to the other) cooling effect, just as
you cant say that there is zero difference between zip cord and an
AWG4 speaker wire. I get as much as 10mV out of a red LED (in the
dark) with a big temperature gradient on the epoxy.

Specifically, at the end of The Mary Tyler Moore Show (1970-77),
rather than her two short-lived series that followed it ( Mary and
The Mary Tyler Moore Hour ).

Ha. Well, theres a nice dry maple log in the fireplace, an ice-cold
Sapporo in one of my Royal Selangor double-wall frozen pewter
tankards, my VHDL code is working with minimal tweaking and all is
right with the world. ;-)

I think I remember something like that, maybe with ground beef.

Heres a recipe for Solianka soup with dill pickle, pickle juice and
a bunch of hearty stuff. They might make it differently in Tartarstan
though (home of Tartar sauce, I presume):

http://soup.allrecipes.com/AZ/SoliankaRussianBeefSoup.asp

From other recipes for Solyanka (or however its spelt/spelled) the
common factors are beef broth, pickles, olives, capers, onions, garlic
and some kind of meat-- other winter veggies are fair game. And a
dollop of sour cream.

I know how to make stew, without a recipe, but it wouldnt taste like
Russian stuff with capers, olives and pickles. I guess you have to
make it only from stuff that would be available in the Russian
countryside in February, and spice it up with the appropriate
crunchy/salty bits.

Noo.... I think I would have remembered something which looked like
*that*.

Sounds basically like corned beef hash with sides of fried egg, pickle
and perhaps rollmop herring. Though more gooey with mashed potatoes
used rather than chopped.
