Practical science
Ethan Siegel confirms something I'd long suspected about microwaving frozen food.
Check out his series about Hubble in the last few days, too. I like his blog, despite his photo.
In my experience, it's much better to run the unopened pot or packet under the hot tap to get the defrosting going than to microwave directly. (Getting the frozen food out hours before is in theory good, too, but that involves planning, which defeats the whole idea of freezer + microwave, let alone the rest of life today.)
