I've evolved from having my steak Medium Well (when I was young) to Medium (about when I started college) to Medium Rare (just 2 yrs ago). I've gone to Medium Rare and I'm not looking back!
Will I be going to Rare anytime soon? I highly doubt it.

best i had was in florence - some 750g which i didnt think i could finish. but hell it was so good it was gone in no time! 50 euros and had change (i think it was 48 or sth) inclusive of a glass of wine and a soup!
i've just spent more on tolls and gas than the meal itself - i had to drive all the way BACK to rome...
On the home prep front, someone emailed me a link to an article that says one should give a steak a coating of salt and cornstarch and then putting it in the freezer for 30 minutes before grilling. In fact, I think the link came from Cook's Illustrated. Seems counterintuitive to me, but I will give it a try and see what kind of crust this provides.
