Should Flambee be banned?
Is flambee too dangerous for residential dwellings? Should we prevent our neighbors from practicing this potentially dangerous form of cooking? Should we sue TV cooks for demonstrating flambee techniques to stop them?

Flambee should be banned on flights.
It should be fine in residential buildings provided that there are at least two fire extinguishers
withing 5 feet.
I don't think that's safe, unless you want a regular inspection to make sure the apt dweller knows how to use the fire extinguisher properly (I know, that should be the case anyways, but I personally have no clue how to use a fire extinguisher)
I favor Berkeley over Junior U. If nothing else, Berkeley is more populous.
I'd leave flambe to restaurants and baked Alaskas.
Where can I find Baked Alaskas?
I have been looking for it during the past 20 years.

But Junior has pretty red roofs.
Weirdly, now thinking back I always subconsciously associated Fudan with Stanford of China. And that's not even a bad thing.
I don't really understand what's so great about Yale. I had a good friend who went there and spent 75% of her time there staging various protests against the *Yale Corporation*. What do Yalies do after their time at Ale? Go to New York to work in IB firms and white shoe Wall Street law firms? -- ( with due apology to SFWoman and her undoubtedly brilliant and not boring white shoe lawyer husband ) BORING! My friend's associates all sound like they're unreconstituted Marxist or JAPs or both.
Meanwhile, the appeal of Fudan and Stanford are readily apparent - they're both excellent institutions (top of the field in some fields and good all across the board) situated in the midst of possibly the single most exciting metropolis of their respective countries. Maybe a bit generic, but an excellent brand name within their region...arguably a Stanford diploma is superior in BA than Harvard -- and if you went to Stanford, why would you ever want to leave the BA :)
How are you going to ban flambe? Seriously? And people would be 10 times more likely to try it if you told them they couldn't. I know I would. :D
I'm at worst a powerless egomaniac, so I really can't "ban" anything. But Peter P raised the topic and I thought I should make an effort to sound controversial.

I am going to tell people they cannot give me one million dollars.

I must be more creative than Casey Serin.
No way! Peter P, you're a desk jockey stuck in your soul killing job (that pays well enough for fancy sushi), that's not creative compared to Casey, who is liberated by his unpaid 9-5 birddogging schedule.
Sheesh, be careful with your exclamations!
