Ah, Larry... You are, of course, *assuming* standard atmosphere
values of pressure of 1.013 hectopascals (neglecting partial pressures
due to amount of water vapor or other trace gases) and therefore zero
elevation in meters. However, what is the elevation of your oven?!
This whole recipe needs to be modified on a sliding scale for oven
height above sea level, ambient airpressure, and thier impact on
requisite baking temperature... ;-)
