Because Cofa craves publicity. The poor guy started this in 1990. In 13 
years, he managed to secure the trademarks, he spent a lot of energy 
(maybe even money), but still nobody plays with his house rules. If he 
could justify cross posting in rec.food.recipe and alt.tanks, I think he 
probably would.
