I'm not sure on this one, dogturd. Can you post the specific heat ratings for some common pizza stones and the BTU rates for home ovens so we can check this out?
Never saw one, but this actually makes some sense! Go figure!

Can you show me where you got the data showing that the stone's surface temp falls below that of boiling water? Seems to me your theory hinges on this. If the oven is heated to 500 degrees and the stone with it, then the pizza would have to draw a lot of heat out of the stone for it's temp to fall below the BP of water. Of course, the stone is used because of it's high specific heat, so it holds a lot of heat. The bigger the stone, the more heat it holds. Therefore, the bigger the stone, the less likely it is to lose enough heat for it's surface temp to fall below the BP of water. OTH, because of it's high heat content, it does not transfer heat rapidly, and the surface area under the pizza could fall quite a bit before the heat is restored. Hard to say without real data, which obviously has never occurred to you. You're just stating an opinion here, not a fact. You know how that goes, don't you dogturd? Opinions are like buttholes, everybody has one.
And the thicker the stone the
Actually, the thicker-larger the stone, the more heat energy it contains, the less impact a pizza would have on it's temperature. That's the one of the reasons for using the stone in the first place. The recovery rate of the stone is more dependent on it's material of construction than it's size. As for the poster's IQ, I'd say you're on thin ice here, dogturd. We just did an exercise on the metallurgy of CI & SS, and you didn't fare too well at all.
If there's no way to make a wimpy home oven operate like a commercial pizza oven, why buy a pizza screen like they use in commercial pizza ovens?

I think I can agree with you here, finally, dogturd. If anyone is an expert in "moronic mental masturbation", it would be you!
Happy New Year! Here's hoping you don't get scooped up and thrown in the trash, having too much fun with you here!! :)
