I've been drinking my way through Jeff Berry's books (Tiki drinks). My favorite so far is the Tiger Shark. 2oz each, white & gold puerto rican rum, lime juice, pineapple juice, and simple syrup. Shaken and poured over crushed iced with optional 151 proof demerara rum.

For a thin steak, I agree. However, a thick cut of meat requires a longer cook time and the crust applied at the beginning of the cook tends to lose its integrity. Cooking longer and slower first allows one to apply the desired temp evenly throughout a thick cut, then searing last reduces and even eliminates the tough grey outer layer.

The oldest of GenX were 10 in 1975 when Pong came out and just about half of us not even born yet. The perspective would be slightly different for the 7-10 year olds, but the rest of us would not get nor want Pong. We certainly got to play if we had a family member, relative, or friend who had one, but it didn't belong to us. By the time the majority of us was of age to get our own game system, the Atari 2600 ruled.

They had Pong.
