One small admin detail, just for clarity: When referring to Sean O'Neil could people use his full name or Sean O, or similar? Gets a bit confusing...
With the proviso that I noted before about needing to tweak the details. In this case the rice-water ratio, depending on much steam escapes from...
This paper, like so many psych papers on ME, is soaked to the gills with the arbitrary assumption of psycho-causation.
Empire building, par excellence. Hickie is also responsible for the equally bad SPHERE check list....

Main ones are a 1 litre Pyrex jug with a plate on it, or a ceramic pot with a lid. The key to steaming rice is in the details. The water rice...
[rant on] We are criticising the FND concept and the people who impose it, not those who have foisted upon them. I have every sympathy for those...
I have been steaming rice manually since I was a kid. Now a master at doing it in the microwave. I don't find rice cookers have much advantage...
