Heads up and tv's on

Y'all might want to keep an eye out for a Food Network production titled "Kitchens of the Future" hosted by that Alton somebody guy. It has some footage of a promo for that late Fifties early sixties Frigidaire dishwasher with the rotating bar, some cute 30's footage (one with a very young Bette Davis!) of different demonstrations of dishwashing machines of the future including a couple that looked like the sink unit Apex I've seen on this site (that's the one Bette was loading). Interesting that even after Frigidaire got rid of that rotating bar spray arm the design of the upper rack with the big center cut-out to accommodate that bar, basically stayed the same

Kitchens of the Future

Found this article of the same title, but am Web Searching for the Alton Brown story. Will report back as soon as I can scavenge that one in real Sharp Shark fashion.--Laundry Shark

Hmmm. Out of Date...At Least On This Page

Unless Food Networks decides to re-air this episode in May or later, the air times shown are for April. Will keep Searching to see what else I can scavenge.--Laundry Shark

Internet Home Alliance

Perhaps this kitchen special might be syndicated to a variety of local or regional TV markets. I did a Web Search within FoodNetwork.com. It also displayed a "Kitchen of the Future" [singular on the "Kitchen"] and it gave reference to the Internet Home Alliance Web site. One way or another, we'll nab this one.--Laundry Shark
