Here's another link I lost track of in my mailbox. An excellent article on science and cooking. MG hataz be advised -- these are not the droids yr looking for. Also covers some of the history of science in the kitchen, including McGee and This. And includes This' chocolate chantilly recipe, which I really do need to try at some point.
Speaking of "there's nothing about that I don't love" -- bacon-infused bourbon old-fashioned. I still think bacon ice cream will be my next bacon project, but I may give the infused bourbon a try as well.
