The rule always used to be, Reduce, Re-use, Recycle; but it seems to me the
first two aren't nearly as sexy as the third these days. I can think of
instances where recycling is presented as not only an alternative to reducing
and re-using, but as the more-responsible alternative! As always
ok, it's a very persuasive argument up until they drag hash into the
discussion. industrial hemp and pot are two different divisions of that

Aluminum does have a characteristic that would make it appealing for the
exterior of a building, That is when it oxidizes, it creates a
protective layer that is quite impervious in many climates. I expect
the coastal areas may not fare as well, with salt in the air, but

Yes, aluminium does self-anodize in that way, much like stainless steel, though
aluminium's oxide layer is softer and more easily damaged. It is usually
heat-sealed to reduce its porosity, but anodized aluminium nevertheless needs
frequent maintenance if a grimy busy-airport finish is to be
Peristaltic pumps are nice because they are positive dispacement, will
self prime and are easily adjusted for pumping speed, but the real
downfall is that because the tubing is constantly flexed it eventually
breaks where the rollers squeeze it and therefore not a practical pump

Great link for the DIY'er Doug but for those with less time or skills I
have published a much easier way to get the same benefit. More actually
since I have taken a indoor/outdoor thermometer and taken the internal
thermistor and mounted it on the end of a wire. This gives you a dual

Hey Tom;
I can hear the love in your angry and disappointed words, for this
planet, for the life, for the future of it all. It is difficult times
for those of us who can see what is coming and it grieves our hearts to
know it and to know that we could collectively change it all if only we

Hello Phillip
Dear Keith
True enough. Maintenance is key. (With everything we do. House, car, garden,
relationships...) In my experience, the gear box gave out before the tubing
did. (Kinda odd) Still, I would expect the tubing to last one heating season.

Anyone know anything about outboard motors? And boats? And whether a
15 HP 4 stroke Mercury would run on ethanol?

Having read somepublications at marinas I have been at this summer, the manufacturers are issuing dire warnings about the use of ethanol. They are in full agreement against its use.

Yeah yeah, and most diesel mechanics are in full agreement that
biodiesel will destroy diesel engines too...

I hear you. So what you're saying is go ahead? User beware? There might be
a reason ethanol is so widely available. Are there any users out there who
can claim no long term damage from prolonged use of ethanol in small marine
applications? Anyone willing to be a guinea pig for the

so what they're saying is if you dont modify the engine to run ethanol, it
wont run ethanol very well... h. maybe we already knew that, and they're
trying to scare people off it? naah, they wouldnt do that... its not like
they would be losing money on fuel additive sales or anything
