Awhile ago, I think it was on either this forum or another, there was a post from seriouseats.com that discussed "7 Old Wives Tales About cooking steak" or something like that. It was very interesting and debuked many things I had taken as gospel on cooking steaks. If y'all are interested go to seriouseats.com and search the "7 Wives Tales..." and I think y'all will find it interesting also. I would link it but don't know how.
