...Not knowing who's bringing what spices (for the seasoning) I can't say. Which is to say that "seasoned" here means spit...
Ya know, for the life of me, I can't figure out who, where, or when this BS notion got started around here. I don't have a bit of trouble understanding what somebody's trying to convey when they use the term "seasoned", or some variation of the word. So far as I'm concerned, "seasoned" and "dry" are synonymous. They're used that way here every day. For me, the same holds true for the all the folks who get their panties in a bunch every time they see the term "face cord". OK, there's no
legal definition...
I get it...but who cares? It's a term that's been in regional use for generations, and it's not all that tough to understand. If you live in one of those regions, you grew up with the term and have no problem with it. If you don't live in one of those regions, then you're not likely to ever need to deal with it, so why all the fuss about it?. None of this woodburning stuff is so precise that we have to get all that picky with the lexicon. I prefer to enjoy the diversity. Try as you might, I predict that you will
never eradicate either term from the discussions here (nor do I think it's worth the effort, because they're perfectly understandable). Rick
