Scott, you are so right. Overcooking a nice steak should be against the law <grin>! I have read somewhere (don't remember where) that problematic bacteria would be on the outside of meat so cooking a steak rare is not a problem, but cooking hamburger rare would be...since the bacteria on the outside of the meat has been ground and mixed all together with the interior meat. I love med rare steak but don't eat burgers that way. My preference... :-)
