Dutch, one of the recipes unknowingly caused severe, uncontrollable flatulence and resulted in a workplace shutdown. Nae can fill you in on the details if you are interested.

Thank you, Paul, for the recommendation. It is true that I AM detail oriented, but I would have thought the story would come best straight from the horse's er..mouth.
Here's the story:
Paul tried one too many of the recipes in the same sitting. He tried to retreat to his office to lessen the damage, but alas, it was too late. The odor seeped underneath the door, through the air vents, and down the hall. Employees began to panic and guests ran for their lives. Someone called 911, and the Hazmat team arrived. They felt the job was more than they could handle, even in their hazmat suits (there must have been something wrong with their air apparatus). Next they called in the air national guard who locked down an entire 4 mile area. Fortunately, ocean breezes eventually saved the day. Paul was resuscitated (given life saving oxygen) and everyone went back to work. The guests, however, were unwilling to return and they had to wait for the next busload to fill up the resort again. They managed to keep the story out of the papers, so no further damage was done to their reputation.
I believe that's the story as Paul told it the first time. Does anyone else want to add any details?
I think this is one of the funniest posts we've ever had. Thanks Paul!

The recipes (probably even the one that caused Paul's unfortunate situation) are still around -- in the archives for this same "Around the Water Cooler" section of the Forum. You can take a few minutes and scroll back into history, or you can do an "advanced search" for the word "recipe," which will pull up a bunch. Send a direct message or call if you need help finding them. tk
