in the doc, they sunk a tube in the lake to release co2 to (try to) prevent explosive release of gas, ash, lava, sulfur, etc. It has been on the welfare TV stations here almost every day. Andrew Strasfogel via Mercedes wrote: That lake was in Africa - Cameroon. The Lake Nyos disaster of 19

Interesting show. IIRC that was an area where the lake "turned over" and released a huge volume of CO2 all at once. Hundreds (or more) in the surrounding valley were suffocated to death without any warning. This happened a couple of decades ago. I think the research team featured in the show wer

Replace it. Newer master cylinders don't rebuild well as there are no oversized kits for having them honed as you should -- part of the wear is on the walls of the cylinder, and new cups won't last all that long. ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list arc

I agree, that's the classic description of a bad master cylinder. When faced with a similar choice on my '95 sedan, I ended up buying an ATE brand. I found that there are very few makers of kits for rebuilding master cylinders. I think that ATE is one of the few? I wasn't sure what was in my car

So I have pressure bled the 124 wagon brakes about three times now and no air comes out any more. I drained at least a pint each caliper this time. No leaks from any of the calipers when pumping pedal with nipples tight. This is a non-asr car. Pedal will pump up but then goes to the floor with su

Yeah I saw that.  Stuff just puffs up out of the ground.  I'm surprised there was not a lot of sulphurous stuff along with it to warn people off from the areas. I went to Volcán Villarrica some years ago, climbed up to the top and around the caldera.  It was sorta fuming away down in the calde

And they're saying 'you deniers claim one volcano is worse than all mankind, our numbers say this particular volcano is only as bad as all the people in Austria'. So they get to put words in the mouths of the 'deniers' so they can 'debunk' them. Anyway, how many volcanoes are active, above and

Yes, tons and tons of poisonous gas. Nova had a neat documentary on African volcanoes the other night, child deaths from the high concentrations of CO2 that collected in low spots was apparently common. Kids would play in the fields and get down into ditches and depressions and just pass out
