I am trying to figure out the theoretical basis of gluten-free nut tartlets. (They won't actually be tartlets as GF doesn't so much work that way in my family's experience. But they might be to tartlets as apple crisp is to apple pie.) Problem: I have never done anything GF that's neither "no gluten in original recipe" nor "swap 2 Tbsp wheat flour for 2 Tbsp GF all-purpose flour blend".

Time to bug Uncle Gourmet Cook! :-D

Wikipedia fails meeee. About what year would y'all say it became more likely than not for your bog-standard (middle-aged white) businessman to have a cell phone? Not a smartphone, mind, the iPhone only dates to 2007. If we're talking 1997 or earlier, I'm golden (and the earlier the better); if we're talking later, I need to fix the bit I've got written. Easy fix, I think, but.

Somehow I suspect 1997 is too early for cell phones to have become commonplace among any demographic...I'm just thinking of the Supernatural scene with Sam and Dean at, what, thirteen and seventeen, which would have been 1996, and how big and clunky their cell phone was.
