OT: Yeah, prolly not 20X faster. I was just considering that a chili or Italian bean soup that I'd set in the crock pot while I was at work (10 hours or so) can be done easily in under 30 minutes. That's 20X, but doesn't mean the cooking is 20X faster.

Also, re: microwaving pasta - the same trick works for rice. Presoak it all day or overnight, then you can cook it in about 5 minutes on high in the microwave. Takes a little more water than the pasta, but I do that all the time for rice and other whole grains. What a time saver.
