...continuing with the completely derailed, off topic discussion....
I believe it's more of a 'zen' thing, where the teflon becomes '...one with the pan....'

Elementary, my dear Kowalski!
Before teflon, panmakers would put an anti-rust compound on the pan. Now, they put nothing on the pan's surface. The nothing sticks to the teflon.

Sir,
Permit me to apologize. No offense was intended. I have seen that signature many times; I addressed you because your post headed the thread. I certainly did not mean to imply that anyone who asked the question is "stupid." The owner of the signature certainly asked it in jest (just as my signature is intended as a little joke), and my response (which could certainly be considered "stupid"!) was intended as a jest.
Unfortunately, humor often doesn't translate across cultures, and American humor in particular often _unintentionally_ offends. My "Elementary, my dear Kowalski" was a reference to the works of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. In them, the detective Sherlock Holmes often prefaces explanations to his assistant, Dr. Watson, with, "Elementary, my dear Watson!" Please forgive me if it seemed condescending.

OK, since we got that out of the way. If they ever invent a universal solvent, what would they keep it in?
