I don't know. I typed my previous message pretty fast, and somehow didn't
list corn starch. As far as I know it should work fine. Corn starch is
probably what I'd start tinkering with since I've got a box in the
cupboarb <grin>. My main point is that there is a pretty good selection
of starches available at the grocery store. I don't know what the
advantages or disadvantages of one over the other might be however.
