Re: [biofuel] Drinking rain water [was: Drink Water From Dehumidifier?]

2004-07-23 Thread rico suavae

Hi Al, Martin is right.Back at the turn of the last century,rainwater was 
collected in rainbarrels and cisterns for all manner of household uses 
including drinking water.Some of your older city houses still have cisterns 
buried in their backyards,though most have been filled in.
A recent This Old House show featured a company that is producing a barrel top 
for rainbarrels that you would put under your downspout to collect the rain off 
the roof.
I know some women who swear that the best water for washing their hair is 
rainwater.
I think it depends where you live on weather you treat the water as pottable or 
grey water.If it comes off the roof just let it sit for a day to settle out and 
don't draw off the bottom.Tip the barrel over every couple of months to clean 
out the sediments.
Hey,we all gotta go some time.I wouldn't worry about a little rain water.Now 
Twinkies on the other hand..

Hi Al,
I think rainwater is fine but in some areas it will be acidic. I'm 
downwind from Detroit, my rainwater is pretty acidic.

Re: [biofuel] Re: Drink Water From Dehumidifier?

2004-07-23 Thread rico suavae

Hi Keith,
Related to all this.The water in the dehumidifiers is already semi 
distilled,having been been evaporated at some point into the atmosphere.It 
carries nothing with it until it comes in contact with something or some 
surface.It should be at 7Ph.
A dehumidifier is a weak sister to an air conditioner and a distant cousin to a 
refrigeration unit.All three are absorbing heat and as a byproduct produce 
condensate.The dehumidifier
does this deliberately.
When boiling water to create distilled water we create the same process but in 
a more deliberate,efficient manner.
All three of the above will and do create distilled water.It just becomes 
contaminated by its surroundings.

Hi Jonathan

I have approx. 60 gallons of distilled water in plastic milk

planned on using it for wash water for biodiesel on a small scale.
Can anyone see any potential problems by using this water as wash
water?  Thanks.  Jonathan.

If it's acidic your final washwater will also be acidic rather than 
pH7. Just as long as it's clear. To be safe, you might want to use 
clean water for the final wash. Remember you can re-use the 
washwater, except that for the first wash:

Hello,

I'm traveling across country this month, 'by accident'- I really didn't 
intend to take this trip!, and I'll be going from DC to Maine and then back 
to California, taking Interstate 80 back. My partner and I are driving a 
couple of vans back here which he and another friend had purchased on eBay 
(it's a bit difficult to find a cheap diesel van in California these days), 
and I got drafted to help get one of the vehicles running.

ANyway, this July trip is somewhat of an accident, and cuts into my 
planning for my 'real' biodiesel class tour at the end of the summer/fall 
(details coming up shortly). In my quest to fund the fall class tour, and 
since I'll be missing work to do this July thing,  I'm once again offering 
to build biodiesel processors for people along the route of my trip (same 
offer applies to my travels in the fall):

The processors would be the water heater-based Biodiesel Appleseed reactors 
from www.veggieavenger.com/media , which in general I encourage you all to 
build yourselves (it's easy).

However if you want a processor built for you, and you are 'along the way' 
of the route of my July trip, I'll build you one for the cost of parts and 
$200 for labor, which will go into funding my August-November biodiesel 
class tour (ie taking my own vehicle, a reactor and a bunch of other gear 
on the road from August through November and teaching classes).

  The total cost for these units including my labor charge is either $380 
or $580 depending on whether you can find a free used electric water heater 
or whether you have to buy a brand new one (they're about $200 usually). If 
you can find a closed-head barrel somewhere, I'll throw in a wash tank for 
the same cost.

I'll be putting together a list of the fall classes tonight and emailing it 
out. Some of those class dates are also for 'equipment building' classes, 
which are opportunities for participants to build their own reactor.

Re: [biofuel] Fahrenheit 9/11

Fahrenheit 9/11, a left-sided documentary that
bashes the Bush administration's war on terrorism,
wouldn't find much of an audience in a military town.

Or so they thought.

'Fahrenheit 9/11' sets record
By Matt Leclercq
2004-06-29 
http://www.fayettevillenc.com/story.php?Template=localStory=6429101

This has broken all of our past records, said Nasim Kuenzel,
an owner of the Cameo Art House Theatre. The movie that I thought
would make us hardly any money - I never thought it would break
all the records.

Both showings sold out Friday at the Cameo, the only theater in
Fayetteville to carry the Michael Moore film. A midnight showing
added at the last minute Friday brought in 60 more people.

Saturday and Sunday were just as busy, Kuenzel said, with nearly
1,000 tickets sold over the weekend. As many as 75 percent of
moviegoers were soldiers or military families, Kuenzel said.

Many were like Natalie Sorton. She is 25 and married to an
infantryman who served in Iraq and Afghanistan.

I want to see what my husband is fighting for, Sorton said
Monday before going into the theater with a friend, Kathy Norris.

Another military spouse had recommended the movie. While
Sorton described herself as a moderate Republican, she said
she gained respect for Moore after seeing his last documentary,
Bowling for Columbine.

In that film, Moore pestered corporations and celebrities to
take responsibility for gun violence. Sorton said she wanted
to see Moore be equally pestering to politicians who make
decisions about war.

I'm going because from what I heard about ('Fahrenheit 9/11'),
it fills in a lot of blanks, a lot of questions we've had about
the Bush administration, Sorton said.

The documentary assails President Bush's decisions surrounding
the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. Moore attempts to link the
Bush family with Saudi Arabia and blame business interests as the
reason for invading Iraq. Fahrenheit 9/11 includes frank comments
from soldiers in Iraq and emotional interviews with families who
lost children in the fighting.

Almost all the crowds at the Cameo have applauded the film at
the end, with some people giving standing ovations, Kuenzel said.
Many have tears in their eyes as they leave the theater.

I think it's going to open my eyes a little, and that worries me,
Sorton said before taking her seat.

Lea Barnes, a Republican, seemed giddy as she and a friend bought
tickets Monday.

I'm not pleased at all about the way things are going with the war,
Barnes said. I trust Michael Moore. He can be out there a bit, but
he's for the common man.

Negative reactions have been few, Kuenzel said. The theater received
three calls and two letters in opposition of carrying the film, she
said. No one has protested, though some people handed out anti-war
fliers on the street Friday evening.

Nationwide ticket sales totaling $23.9 million launched the film to
the No. 1 spot over the weekend, a record for a documentary.
Twelve other theaters in North Carolina are carrying Fahrenheit 9/11,
according to the film's Web site.

Other theaters

The Varsity Theatre in Chapel Hill also sold out over the weekend,
with some patrons from the Fayetteville area, said owner Mary Jo
Stone. The publicity surrounding Disney's refusal to distribute
the film because of its political content helped ignite sales.

I think people are interested in perhaps getting a different
perspective than what they see in the news all the time, Stone said.

Since the Cameo opened in 2000, the only other movies that
approached the sales figures for Fahrenheit 9/11 were
My Big Fat Greek Wedding and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
Other theaters across the country are expected to start showing
the film in the next few weeks.

After Monday's showing, Sorton emerged with a grim face.
She said she plans to buy the film on DVD and give it to
everyone she knows.

I'm disgusted, she said. Disgusted.

The film changed her opinions on the war in Iraq by convincing
her that oil and corporate interests were behind decision-making,
she said. Worries over whether Moore would vilify soldiers were unfounded.

I don't think they portrayed them as bad, she said. I don't
think it portrayed them as not doing their jobs. It showed them
doing what they're told.

All this movie did was open my eyes a little more to what's
really going on, she said. I think this is definitely going
to have an impact on the election. I'm glad I'm a voter.

  They aren't falsehoods, if you look at the quote I dropped in from

   give it a go just once.
  
   First of all, yes, you're correct. I do make point of discredit[ing]
   the
   source[s], especially when the sources you use are ripe with error.
  
   Second, when a person utilizes sources chucked full of error and
   disinformation as their foundation for argument, there is essentially
   no
   argument and no point or purpose in going 'round and 'round the
   mulberry
   bush as you would apparently like effect.
  
   Third, based upon the sources that you draw your information from,
   it is
   rather apparent that you're either an aspiring disinformatinalist or
   someone
   who siimply enjoys creating an atmosphere of argument.
  
   Fourth, in light of that, I'm afraid that you presume far too much in
   your
   expectancy that everyone (or anyone) drop everything that they're
   doing,
   wrestle precious hours away from far more productive endeavors, all to
   rehash erroneous allegations and falsehoods of intentional foundation.
   To
   what end? Certainly not in search of any truth. Or if so, only the
   truth
   as you care to interpret it.
  
   Do you really think that a book such as Al Franken's Lies and the
   Lying
   Liars that tell them, A Fair and Balanced Look at the Right would
   have made
   it out of the batter's box if it was as full of liable and untruths as
   your
   sources claim?
  
   And in all honesty, anyone who deliberately assesses judgement on a
   present
   issue and/or film based upon an unrelated past issue is someone who is
   far
   more set upon a distorted conclusion than upon any conclusion
   predicated
   upon reality.
  
   Come to think of it, that practice is exactly what you're accusing
   another
   of. One can only presume, based upon your operating on such a double
   standard, that the rules that you would care to apply to others simply
   don't
   apply to you?
  
   Perahaps now you can see why you are so easily discounted?

 Just a few examples from Bowling from Columbine because its been

America is handing out guns to anyone. If I remember correctly from read the
process actually took closer to an hour and a half. Weak example yes, but
none-the-less if shown honestly it would do nothing to promote Moore's
arguement that any old fool can get a gun in the way he described. The
requirements for getting that gun from the bank were just as stringent as
getting it from any other registered gun shop. If he wants to analyze that,
then fine, I support it. Maybe it is too easy to get a gun, I'm not here to
offer an opinion on it, but the bank scene is only an example of the same
process that would happen in
  any other legal weapon transaction.
 I think the NRA bashes are more incriminating of Moore's deceptive style.
He spends quite a while dehumanizing the NRA and especially Mr. Heston. I
had a very good friend see this movie and tell me Heston and the NRA were a
bunch of jerks for jumping up to hold rallies right after the killings in
Flint and Columbine. I must say, the 'evidence' in the movie was compelling.
But some other people slowed down the feeds and picked through the internet.
The 'rally' in Flint wasn't actually a Rally, Heston showed up to support
Bush on his campaign, and it was 7 months after the incident. The movie
shows a headline that says, 48 hours after Kayla Rolland is pronounced
dead either right before or right after the Heston clip. It insinuates the
meeting was 48 hours after, and there is no way its not intentional. But the
headline continues on to say something about Clinton making a statement
about the incident and is completely unrelated to the NRA.
 http://www.bowlingfortruth.com/bowlingforcolumbine/scenes/hestonrally2.htm
 He also uses the NRA meeting in Colorado right after the Columbine
shootings as further ammo against the NRA. The video clips he shows of
Heston are actually from another rally, and he fails to mention that the NRA
cancelled most all of its other activities aside from the vote that by law
is mandatory. I believe its a non-profit law to vote officials or something
else similar. Irregardless the NRA had to have its meeting, which it did,
but the NRA did nothing like what Moore shows. Frankly, I don't know what

Re: [biofuel] Oil Storage Tanks

2004-07-03 Thread rico suavae

Thanks for the post Gustl.They sound like farm tanks.I have no use for them 
myself at this time but they sound ideal for wvo.You could probably gain some 
BTUs by having them exposed to the sun.Maybe in a greenhouse sort of structure.

Gustl Steiner-Zehender [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
Hallo Friends,

I have found 4 opaque containers made of some sort of plastic material
which  were  manufactured  for the Toro lawn and garden company.  They
were  made  to hold liquid chemicals and they will hold 150 gallons of
liquid  (568 liter).  The tanks have inlets/outlets near the bottom on
each  end, in the bottom in the middle of the tank and a large opening
on the top with a smaller opening in the middle of that one.  There is
a  screen  inside the tank to strain out foreign objects.  The tank is
sort  of  oval  or elliptical in shape, quite low, and is mounted on a
metal  base  which  allows it to set flat on the floor.  There are two
metal  straps  which hold the tank to the base.  The things look ideal
to me for holding oil or biodiesel or whatever.

The  fellow who has them wants $225 US for them.  He only has 4 tanks.
He  will  not  ship  them but I will for the cost of shipping plus the
cost  of  fuel  to get them to the shipping agent.  I want nothing for
myself.  $225 plus shipping does not seem like a bad price to me but I
have no experience in such matters.

I  am  in  southeastern  Michigan about 45 minutes south of Ann Arbor,
1.25  hours west of Toledo, Ohio, 4.5 hours east of Chicago, and about
an hour east of Angola, Indiana.

The  fellow  who  has  them  was  going  to  sell  them all but I have
persuaded him to hold onto them until I posted to the group.  He lives
only  a  mile  south of me.  He is a decent fellow and told me that he
bought  the tanks to resell but that at $225 each he was making only a
small  profit.   I  have no reason to doubt him.  He was just going to
buy  a  couple  for  himself but he bought the lot for a better price.
Toro no longer makes the tanks and he will be using his to carry water
to  his  job  sites.  He works with concrete and thought he could sell
the tanks to other concrete workers but he likes the idea of biodiesel
and agreed to let me post the for sale to the list.

Anyone  interested  can contact me offlist.  [EMAIL PROTECTED]  If you
would  live  close  enough to come and pick a tank up I could bring it
down  to  my place and put it in the barn until such time as you could
pick  it  up.   Otherwise  I would have to wait for him to be home and
unlock the place to get them.

I  am  going  to  try and get pictures of the tank tonight or tomorrow
depending on when I can catch Dennis home.

Happy Happy,

To my higher Power,

As I sit here at my desk, with still another flood warning flashing across 
my computer screen, I try hard to remember what it was like before the rain 
started, it has been so long.  The local NPR  [B/CS] station reported on 
June 17, that this was the wettest June in history and that this part of 
the world has been keeping records for 500 years.  It has rained everyday 
since that report.

This is truly enough to make one wonder what did Texas do to deserve this?

I think we all know the answer, we are responsible for sticking the rest of 
the world with George W.  Bush.  Now we can argue he was a good Governor, I 
mean he gave us the handguns that Ann Richards' refused us, and put an end 
to much of the random violence we lived with.  The gangs did not like the 
idea that John Q. Citizen just might pull a legal gun out and shoot 
back.  After 5 years of having the legal guns, a whole 1500 people had 
permits to carry concealed weapons.  This is not a large figure, but it 
sure worked.  And the Bush family do lots for adult literacy programs, 
something we really need here in Texas.  George W. followed the family 
footsteps on this one real well.  So we had some reason for what we did.

I mean, how were we suppose to know, what kind of President he was going to 
be?  But is this any reason to try to wash Texas into the gulf?  After 20 
days of constant flash flood warnings and watches, we apologize.  If we 
promise not to vote for George W., will you please stop the rain?

Bright Blessings,
Kim

Dear all

My apologies for this ghastly flood of old messages we've all been 
subjected to in the last 24 hours.

This was a attack on the list by a hacker, highly malicious and 
extremely childish. I hope to be able to tell you more about it soon. 
For now, the culprit has, I think, been dealt with and hopefully it 
should be over.

There were 800 false messages sent altogether in 24 hours. I managed 
to stop 500 of them, but there was nothing I could do about the rest, 
I'm very sorry to say. They were all previous messages from bona-fide 
list members sent again with the current date.

Yahoo, as expected, proved worse than useless when it came to any 
assistance - their own website and its controls had been compromised, 
but they just weren't interested.

Unfortunately, some genuine messages got caught up in the flood of 
false messages. I managed to save some of them, which I'm now 
forwarding to the list. Others may have been lost. If your message 
does not show up, please send it again. My apologies for this too. I 
suppose there'll be some residual confusion for a day or so, but I do 
hope we can all now get on with business-as-usual free of 
interference from people I can only describe as psychopaths.

Meanwhile I've had to set the whole list to Moderated to stem this 
flood of garbage. This is just an emergency measure and I'll reset it 
to Unmoderated as soon as it seems safe to do so. In the meantime 
there'll be some delay while new messages wait to be cleared, sorry 
for the inconvenience.

What has surprised me is that more list members haven't unsubscribed, 
faced with this onslaught. Few if any seem to have done so. Thankyou 
so much for your patience and tolerance. A nice demonstration of just 
what a tiny minority among sane and decent people the sociopathic 
element is, even on the Internet.

First, you take a powder to recover from your sick[ness] over what you

Second, go to Yahoo Groups, then My Groups and then edit preferences for
Digest Mode.

Third, wipe your nose and wake up to the reality that the world and its

to live in. Chances are that you're going to fall back on a lot of that

I don't agree with alot of the people here. Thats why I like it here. You can't 
learn much from people who think the same as you.But I have to agree with Keith 
on this.The only thing I would add is a couple of plays from the Hitler play 
book.Number one,when running an oppressive regime,give the people a common 
enemy to hate. this takes the focus off your own shortcomings.Number two,be 
ruthless in all opposition to what you want no matter how reasonable.
The one that I would add is one my dad gave me;when in doubt of the 
motives,follow the money.

Learn something maybe? What's always amusing about this stuff is how 
they they espouse a balanced approach and advise against being an 
easy mark for the rhetoric, LOL! At least it's amusing if you try, 
damn' annoying if you don't.

I have no intention of defending Isreal.

 he said, defending Israel.

However the tone of these articles are scary at best. Talking about 
motive as being irrelevant, etc, etc. Of course motive is important. 
If there is no logical reason for someone to do something most 
likely the basic assumptions are flawed.

When a war goes on bad things happen. A lot. Ships sink. People die, 
etc, etc. If you dig deeply enough you can find something grey and 
then proceed to build a case for whatever you want. There is no 
black and white in the world. Get used to it and understand it or 
you are an easy mark.

The fact remains that Isreal was attacked and whatever happened 
after that and since was not their doing directly. Yes they could 
have acted better and they still can. But then so can the people on 
the other sides. They probably have a right to act more paranoid 
than anyone else since they are surrounded and no one else is. 
Remember everything points to the fact that if they had not been 
attacked none of this would have ever happened.

Trying to build a case for hate is stupid.

Yes it is, you shouldn't do it.

Take a balanced approach.

Umm...

Remember all of the dictators in that area of the world need you to 
hate someone. Isreal, the US, Britain, someone. Because if you don't 
then you will start asking too many questions.

You should try a few questions rather than all these cosy assumptions.

Saddam killed a hundred thousand of his own people in a very short 
time. How is he defended by people who support him?

You mean by Reagan and Bush Snr? Rather well. Bush Jnr's numbers are 
getting quite impressive too, he'll be equalling that achievement 
soon. Of course the intentionally brutal and murderous sanctions the 
US insisted on, despite worldwide protests, killed maybe eight times 
as many, half of them children, an achievement not to be belittled.

By fomenting hate.

True, if you mean Reagan and Bush Snr, and if you don't you should.

It is not relevant to who. If you buy into the rhetoric then you 
where helping him to kill thousands. He is not unique.

Nope, indeed not, the US has supported a long and as-yet unending 
line of brutal and murderous dictators like Saddam.

Now you're going to say I hate America or something. Wrong - as 
with everything else. I don't like dissembly and obfuscation, whether 
intentional or unwitting.

Aarghhh! - it's no use! We've seen this smug and circular line of 
blather (one of their favourite words) going round and round so 
often, its internal logic hermetically sealed against any hint of 
that dreadful stuff reality.

I'm not going to argue with you and I hope nobody else bothers to 
either, your views do not merit sensible discussion, especially not 
on an international list with worldwide membership such as this one. 
It's all in the archives already, long since, go and search out 
what's been said previously before you preach this crap at people 
here. I know you won't bother to do that, but unless you do (and do 
it without simply dismissing or not even seeing anything that might 
disagree with you) please be aware that the solid ground you're 
standing on is about as solid as a bog, and so is your credibility 
here.

Most of the dictators in the region use this technique and kill many 
people. In fact I would go as far as to say most modern dictators do 
this. Just start looking for them throughout Africa and Asia. They 
all do the same thing. North Korea for example is collapsing because 
it is the only communist economy that isn't growing. So they start 
building nukes to pick a fight with the world. Remember it was a 
north korean diplomat who bragged that caused all of their 
'problems'. Also remember that North Korea could easily flatten Sol 
in less then half an hour with standard artilary making nukes

Thankyou! Yes, all that and more - very fresh air, crisp and clean,
birds everywhere, really peaceful and quiet. Visitors said that about
our last place, but there's no comparison, this is much better. It's
pretty round here. I'm sitting at my desk with the screens open and
all I can see is wild green stuff, starting 10 feet away, beyond that
forested slopes and blue sky. It's great! The mind is sort of
hopelessly cobwebbed beyond all remedy but the spirit soars. On the
other hand the wild boar are a problem, so are the deer, if you grow
stuff, and we've seen a few weasels, the chicken hutch (the end bit
of one of the sheds) is currently being turned into Midori's version
of Fort Chicken. The chooks have got a whole field to run on during
the day though.

 Sounds like a positivie move.  Hope all goes well.  I'm hoping I get
 to move somewhere more mountainous soon.

It's only about an hour away, so no need for an everything-one-time
move, much easier. Still a lot of chaos and a lot of stuff yet to be
moved, but the rest is quite easy. We were cooking on biodiesel last
night and this morning because the gasman messed up, but he's here
now connecting it all. We'll still use the biodiesel though, and
we'll replace the gas with biogas eventually anyway. Lots of work to
do getting the land in condition for crops - we've got a tractor and
a rotavator, both diesels (and a few other diesels, including an old
250cc Yanmar, interesting), and there's a few tons of compost to be
brought from the old place and so on. I'd like to get some pigs to do
the ploughing, they're much better (and you can't make biogas with
tractor-manure, nor do tractors make good bacon). Mountains though,
yes - Mountains Are Good For You. A couple of years in Holland
convinced me of that, and I was born on one after all. I do notice
though that the more mountainous we get the less we use our bicycles.

  It's based upon court records, archived data of the period and the
results
  of post-election examination of ballots and events by several print
media
  outlets, the latter conducted under the eyes of election supervision
  offices.
 
  The conclusions are there for anyone to draw, provided they've been
  bequeathed with half a wit.
 
   The article you sent me to said that the overvotes were to be counted.
 
  Legally they were and are supposed to be manually tabulated. They
weren't.
  They were discounted by election officials who knew that they were
acting
  contrary to Florida statute.
 
  From that remark on you start to dabble in your own personal opinion,
 rather
  than fact.
 
  An overvote that is clearly marked for the same candidate in both the
 punch
  area and the write-in area requres no thought or guesswork to make an
  accurate determination. That's where, how and why they dare. All
  other combinations that create the slightest opportunity for doubt are
 null
  and void.
 
  As for the first one being free? You're right. It cost me a half-hour

  unaddressed is an even greater waste, as others not so prone to check
such
  claims could easily be led to believe that they were fact.
 
  Your claim certainly wasn't based upon fact. So perhaps you would care
to
  state what it was based upon rather than letting anyone assign its
basis?
 
  Nothing personal. Just that most people have no use for folly, fraud,
 false
  trails and misinformation.

 Hornswaggle.

 It's based upon court records, archived data of the period and the results
 of post-election examination of ballots and events by several print media
 outlets, the latter conducted under the eyes of election supervision
 offices.

 The conclusions are there for anyone to draw, provided they've been
 bequeathed with half a wit.

  The article you sent me to said that the overvotes were to be counted.

 Legally they were and are supposed to be manually tabulated. They weren't.
 They were discounted by election officials who knew that they were acting
 contrary to Florida statute.

 From that remark on you start to dabble in your own personal opinion,
rather
 than fact.

 An overvote that is clearly marked for the same candidate in both the
punch
 area and the write-in area requres no thought or guesswork to make an
 accurate determination. That's where, how and why they dare. All
 other combinations that create the slightest opportunity for doubt are
null
 and void.

 As for the first one being free? You're right. It cost me a half-hour of
 valuable time. But to let glib one-liners of absolutely errant content go
by
 unaddressed is an even greater waste, as others not so prone to check such
 claims could easily be led to believe that they were fact.

 Your claim certainly wasn't based upon fact. So perhaps you would care to
 state what it was based upon rather than letting anyone assign its basis?

 Nothing personal. Just that most people have no use for folly, fraud,
false
 trails and misinformation.

 In the time honoured words of John Billings,  I honestly believe it iz
 better tew know nothing than tew know what ain't so.

As I said before When I was living down south there were many in gov.offices

deliberate actor in this is to give him credit for something he was probably 
not aware of.Racism is still alive and doing very well in the south without any

 Podvin?Denied voting?Stole an election?What planet is he from??

Planet USA, I believe. As is Greg Palast, though he had to go
elsewhere because he's a first-rate investigative journalist and he
found that the ever-more-concentrated ownership of the allegedly free
media on Planet USA disapproved of the truth because it got in their
way. But, though based now on Planet UK, which is marginally better
in such things though still far from ideal, he continues to report on
events on Planet USA. The fact that large numbers of the citizens of
Planet USA have voted with their pockets to keep Palast's book on
these matters in the top 10 bestsellers list for some time now would
seem to indicate that a considerable proportion of that planet's
population agrees with him and Podvin, and many others, and not with
the media owners and you, and many others, when it comes to things
like truth and what is and is not disproven. You could be among them.
You should be among them, you owe it to yourself. You owe it to
everyone. Among them the large numbers of other citizens of Planet
USA who were denied a vote because they had been unjustly
criminalised - guilty in advance, potential felons, as Jeb Bush
called them, suspected of potentially attempting to vote while being
black. Which is about to happen all over again, and not just in
Florida, though it wasn't just in Florida last time too. See, for

But you'll turn your nose up at the facts (see footnotes/references) and
snot at the outlet.

Forget that when the US Supreme Court halted the recount the totals were
within 113 or 114 votes of a Gore victory.

Forget the findings of the NAACP lawsuit settled on 9/4/2002.

And you'll discount the Diebold electronic voting machine errors in Volusia
and Brevard counties, to the tune of 20,000 some odd votes. They were caught
only because of their glaring size. Nobody bothered to check the rest of the
electronic machines for errors.

That certainly doesn't bode well for the accuracy of electronic voting in
2004.

Frankly, what it sounds like brother, is that you're more interested in
walking through life with your eyes focused on what is convenient to your
belief system rather than reality.

And in the process? You have no problem dissing/dismissing anyone or
anything that you're in disagreement with. Meaning that the only place that
fact becomes fiction and tired old disproven diatribe is in your mind,
where the court of reason seems to be largely on permanent recess.

Pity that.

 MANIFEST DESTINY

 By David Podvin

 American foreign policy is revisiting the most brutal period in our
history.
 George W. Bush has resurrected the scourge of Manifest Destiny, a depraved
 philosophy that states we are morally compelled by God Almighty to kill
 weaker people and steal their land. There is no scriptural evidence that
 this is the covenant of Jehovah or Jesus or Mohammad or Buddha; the God
 whose will is now being carried out more closely resembles Attila the Hun.
 The stated desire for world domination has some observers comparing Bush
to
 Adolf Hitler. It is a comparison that is entirely inappropriate - Hitler
did
 not pretend to love the innocent civilians he was slaughtering.

 On the home front, there is also an unwelcome blast from the past. As has
 happened so many times in American history, conservatives are expediently
 detecting the scent of treason in the air. The moon is full, and the blood
 is rising in the wolf. Right-wingers are now working themselves into the
 irrational, frenzied state that precedes the hunt, lustfully anticipating
 the carnage they are about to inflict. Yet again, conservatives are
 patriotically preparing to lay waste to their natural born prey: the evil
 ones amongst us who endanger this sacred land by failing to conform to the
 Lord's fascist agenda.

 Having fostered imperialism abroad and McCarthyism at home, and with the
 stock market teetering on the edge of collapse, Bush is closing in on a
 Trifecta for the ages. Add the fact that he previously prevented blacks
from
 voting, throw in the current discrimination against citizens who
physically
 resemble the enemy, and Bush has delivered a reprise of the worst of
 twentieth century America - all deftly compressed into less than two years

 The Bush record is a logical extension of what happened in 2000. The theft
 of that election was not just a power grab - it was a policy statement by
 someone who has contempt for democracy and the rule of law. The inevitable
 result is the introduction of the Bush Doctrine. It declares that, while
the
 United States would prefer to behave legally,  We will not hesitate to
act
 alone, if necessary, to exercise our right of self-defense by acting
 pre-emptively. The Bush Doctrine is the latest incarnation of the Manson
 Doctrine, which clearly states,  I reserve the right to kill you if I
feel
 like it.

 This is not the best of America.

 America at its best exports freedom and democracy, not death and
 destruction. One of the shining moments in our history occurred when the
 Marshall Plan rebuilt Europe, even the part of Europe that had just tried
to
 kill us. After defeating our enemies, we fed them and then helped to
create
 free societies in which they could thrive. As a result, we turned
 adversaries into allies. Contrast this approach with the current situation
 in Afghanistan, where Bush has replaced the Taliban with thugs of his own
 and left the peasants to fend for themselves - without food or shelter -
by
 growing opium poppies.

 America at its best allows people to read library books without having the
 Attorney General pass judgment on their selections, and go to museums
 without being monitored by FBI agents

America at its best allows people to read library books without having the

without being monitored by FBI agents, and publicly demonstrate against
government policy without being harassed.

The best of America is George Washington declining to become king because he
preferred to live as an equal rather than rule as a sovereign. This stands
in sharp contrast to the current George, who attempts to rule as a sovereign
even though he fails to qualify as an equal.

The best of America is Abraham Lincoln imploring his countrymen to avoid war
by listening to the better angels of their nature. It is quite different
than imploring Congress to slash Medicare benefits for old Americans in
order to help underwrite the cost of sending young Americans off to die.

The best of America is Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., risking and ultimately
sacrificing his own life so that others could be free at last. Personal
sacrifice is alien to the man who now insists that our country pay a huge
toll in blood and treasure to satiate the greed of his campaign
contributors.

America is a great country when we follow the lead of great people.

And then there is the America that is led by George W. Bush. While the
litany of ways in which Bush has disgraced our nation is seemingly endless,
one example is especially compelling. Under Bush, self-proclaimed child of
God, America is currently torturing foreign nationals who are suspected of
committing terrorism. This return to the caves is cheered

CHANGE YOUR FUEL FILTER
Tuesday, May 18, 6-9pm
Our first hands-on workshop at the Biofuel Oasis, Berkeley
BioFuel Oasis - 2465 4th Street @ Dwight, Berkeley, CA
510.665.5509 [EMAIL PROTECTED]

--We'll have you change your fuel filter so you know exactly how to
do it, but we'll be there to instruct you the whole way.

It's a good thing to proactively change your fuel filter every 3-6 months, 
so you don't end up having to do it on the road. If it's time to change it, 
email us to sign up for this free workshop. Let us know what kind of car 
you have and what time would be convenient for you. We'll make up a 
schedule, and send you an email reminder.

Bring a fuel filter (German Auto Salvage on 4th St is a good place to get 
one), a couple screwdrivers, and possibly a clamp or visegrips and an 
oil/fuel drip pan. You can also just come and watch.

Re: [biofuel] OT: auto safety tips

2004-04-27 Thread rico suavae

If I may humbly add my two cents.
During the Viet Nam war many comparisons were made to the carnage on the roads 
and the death toll of the war.I too am with out substantiated facts but my dim 
bulb memory tells me that at the time the rates were comparable.
I suppose one could call their insurance agent and ask what the actuarial 
tables were for a given year on auto deaths and have the answer in a wink.
given the population increase in the US,even an offset by increased safety 
would probably make this number a constant.But,again thats just a guess on my 
part.
I came in a little late on the conversation.I'm a pro lifer.But for 
the life of me I can't make the connection between auto deaths and 
abortions.Unless...someone was preforming one when they crashed the car.

Oh-ho, here we go - guns and abortions, LOL! Here's some more

Greg, those one million women who just marched in Washington all

Well, that's just a few of the American women. Trouble is young 
master Bush has gone and revived the Reagan-era global gag rule that 
denies U.S. funds to international family planning groups that use 
their own money for abortion counselling, services or lobbying even 
though it's legal in their own countries.

I always wondered what sort of keyhole view it took to call it 
pro-life, blithely giving a Nelson's eye to all the women who get 
killed and the foetuses too because they get left with no other 
choice than those helpful back-alley ladies who poke around with a 
bent clothes-hanger. You think it's a myth, Greg?

  1. Your handgun related death number is grossly inflated.
 
  2. The number killed in car wrecks annually is, incredibly, only a small
  fraction of the number killed by medical doctors each year !!

-Then I'm co-teaching at SEI (the incredible solar technology 
education center in Colorado, www.solarenergy.org I believe) with 
Martin of Boulder Biodiesel Coop in late July. This should be a great 
class- a five-day (?)biodiesel camp- and I'd also like to find a 
student who is going there who would like to build equipment as part 
of the class.

Then I'm leaving from there and coming to the Midwest to do a tour in 
August (the options so far for me are madison, chicago, st louis, 
milwaukee possibly), and then I'd like to end up in North Carolina 
(asheville, boone? and Triangle area) for a few weeks (early 
september?) and therefore could swing up to Virginia someplace if 
there was interest for a class up there.

The same deal applies as the Tucson class announcement: I can do a 
regular day-long (or longer minicourse) class in basics of biodiesel 
homebrewing, and if people think there is interest, I can do an 
equipment building class. 

I'm missing out on a job to do this in August (and my old truck is 
wearing out!), so I'd need to charge something for these classes, 
which is usually $20-$50 per student per day for the ones I do in 
California. (I run the pre-registration/advertising, and bring 
everything needed for the class, and I have to put in quite a few full 
days of prep for the equipment class especially). 

I can also (to afford this tour) simply build reactors for individuals 
who don't want to coordinate a class but are are 'along the route'. 
I've done a few of these already and I charge $200 labor, on top of 
your equipment costs. I think I'm bringing a small MIG welder with me 
on the August tour so some custom tank work is possible. I'll probably 
be traveling with another biodieseler or two but it won't be like 
inviting the whole Rainbow Family to your farm or anything scary.

More on the Midwest stuff later as I make more firm plans.

thank you everybody for the interest in this!

murdoch [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
I was discussing my home appliances and how much energy they use.
But, as many already know, it's difficult to measure some of them
because they don't come with meters which show their exact kW usage at
any given time.  For high energy use devices, such as refrigerators
and water heaters, this could be very important toward an owner
understanding their energy use.  Understanding could, in turn, lead to
better usage of those devices, or replacing of perniciously
inefficient ones.

Inclusion of some sort of power meter on home appliances could add
cost to those devices, but I think some appliance-buyers might find
this cost to be worth their while, particularly if electricity prices
get higher.  Also, if such measuring meters are included, they could
be better-integrated with computerized-house-of-the-future plans, such
as Microsoft sometimes tries to cook up.

I have a hot water heater which tells me on its energy star label that
it's going to use so many kWh per day that I won't repeat it because I
can't quite believe I haven't misread something.  Further, I don't
know at all how much it's using because I have a solar water heating
panel on the roof that works in a very passive way, just sort of
supplementing whatever heating is there.

So, going forward, it would be cool if our appliances were built to
give us more feedback on what they're using.  A sort of fuel-useage
meter.

Some of this might apply to cars, some not.  They tell us how much
fuel they have, and they sometimes have meters we don't care about,
but they don't have a direct fuel-consumption-RATE meter.  The
exception to this seems to be the Insight and perhaps some of the
other Hybrids and BEVs and FCHEVs that we've seen, in that some of
them give some very straightforward feedback to the driver on realtime
fuel consumption rates.  I wonder what would happen if we did an
experiment and equipped a conventional 4 cylinder stickshift
gasoline-burning car with a fuel consumption rate meter and kept track
of various drivers and whether changing this one variable caused them
to drive with identifiably better mileage?

Hi All,

Fuel oil/Gasoline
Electricity
Natural Gas
Water

The average includes all ages, all living conditions (houses, apartments,
public transportation, etc.). The average is for personal use only, however,
and does not take into account the energy or water needed to manufacture the
material/consumer goods used or purchased by an individual. It only takes
into account what is consumed in the home or apartment, or used for personal
transportation.

Do any of you know where I might find this information?

if they could be assured of a consistant product,free of any contaminnants,all

Tie-ing this in with the racing fuel discussion, with this handy list
you provide of ethanol plants, it would be nice if a racing series
would take a look at it, and, if some racing events are held not too
far from ethanol production, they could make a point of using
locally-made (locally-grown) fuel.  This would put money back into the
local economies, rather than sourcing all the fuel and the processing
of it from out of state and perhaps out-of-country.  This could also
be done with electricity of course, as a racing fuel, for hybrid
racers or EV racers.

Indiana would become a production leader, but I suspect state tax 
incentive policies don't promote it.

Here is a listing of USA ethanol plants:

BTW, Iowa ethanol producers infrequently ship whole trainloads of the

i have an industrial hydraulics background and i am i am very familar with the

about forty microns in dia.what you need to find out is if the filter system is 
one micron nominal or absolute.noninal means the filter will trap down to 
thatsize but may let larger particles through.absolute means just that.nothing 
over one micron will ever get through.
the rest of the system sounds very similar to a system we used to remove water 
from a unit that used silver plated aircraft bearings.it worked very well but 
the plates would sludge up and have to be cleaned.   good luck

Well, the 1 micron got my curiosity as I am determined to to use wvo in a
Lucas Cav pump and I visited their site:
http://www.cot.se
There is an installation pdf there which explaind how it all works. Since
then I have been talking to Ronny Sëâerlund who is on the RD side. He is
prepared to answere any questions (but please post copies to the list, so we
can all share) if anyone wants to look into this.

Oil gets to the evaporator/heater after the filter and is basically sprayed
onto a 120ˆá  heating plate where moisture is evaporated it then trickles
on. The system requires a pump and at 3 bar will give 27 litres per hour -
enough I would think for most car applications.

Now I don” know what the Vormax filters down to or heats up to or indeed
what it costs. This thing though doeas get down to 1 micron and heats to
120ˆá - is this too much?

Anyway I thought it looked quite interesting - I have no connection to COT
I'm just curious.

I can see poker playin' Walt turning over command to his co-pilot,

  You're closer to the mark than you know. When my number came up in the 
draft, the government decided that because of my background in chemistry 
and physics, I should become one of the officers who activate tactical 
nukes in the field. As a result, I know first hand the soul searching that 
goes with that job. It's not something to make light of.

  Personally, I came to the conclusion that I couldn't trust the government 
to the degree necessary in order to be able to carry out an order to launch 
a nuke. In time, I was able to get a discharge, and left the country in 
order to help build a new one in the Caribbean.

  As an expatriot, I don't care who wins; I just think it's a shame they 
can't both lose. But what scares me more than the venality of the 
politicians on both sides of the isle is the inability of most people to 
look at the contest with any more insight than that exhibited by the World 
Wide Wrestling Federation's loyal viewers who have to paint everything in 
black and white, and how just can't seem to grasp the subtle concept of 
someone being an equal opportunity disbeliever.

  About 140 years ago, a group of federalists took over the government and 
waged a war of conquest which destroyed more than a million lives thereby 
establishing the principal of rule by conquest as the foundation for the 
federal government. If they could kill hundreds of thousands of Southrons, 
and they did, then it's not much of a stretch for them to continue on that 
path killing anyone else who gets in their way.

  I'm always bemused by Northerners who think that their side won that 
war; the winners were the military-industrial complex, which hasn't looked 
back since.

  I don't have a problem with folks who either support or oppose the 
current 
expedition on pragmatic grounds, since this is the sort of business which 
has been the focus of the federal government for more than a century. What 
does scare me is the folks who think it's morally okay for their side's 
President to blow people to pieces but somehow not okay for the other 
side's President to do the same.

  Those who were not publicly outraged over Clinton's pattern of bombing 
civilian targets should recognize that their silence opened this door, and 
to at least have the decency to not whine about Bush using the same 
justifications for following in Clinton's footsteps.

  These matters are way too serious for such partisan nonsense.

If you're mad about the results of the 2000 election, you should be
outraged at this revelation.  We haven't had control of our government
for a very long time.  In 1912 former republican president Teddy
Roosevelt was coaxed out of retirement to run as a Bull Moose and spoil
the election for the incumbent republican president Taft thus giving the
presidency to an unknown democrat named Woodrow Wilson.  Under Wilson
the 16th and 17th amendments to the constitution were forced through the
legislature (creating the IRS, and changing the election of senators
from the state legislatures to popular vote).  Also passed under Woody
was the Nelson Aldrich sponsored Federal Reserve Act (Aldrich was the
republican whip in the Senate, Chairman of the National Monetary
Commission, business associate of J.P. Morgan, father-in-law to John D.
Rockefeller, Jr.).  The Federal Reserve act was written in secret at
Jekyll Island, Georgia by the leading industrial-capitalists of the time
led by none other than Paul Warburg (Daddy Warbucks from Little Orphan
Annie, a partner at Kuhn Loeb  Company, and the first chairman of the
Fed).  The Federal Reserve Act effectively hijacked our national
sovereignty by vesting control of our money supply in a private banking
system owned by the Morgans and Rockefellers, and connected to
Rothschilds.  Since 1908, no president has been elected without their
approval.  Our ability to change the government has been drastically
reduced and declines further still.  Today, the only chance we have to
affect change is on the local and state levels, before the candidates
get co-opted and corrupted.  Is there a correlation between the loss of
popular sovereignty and the rise of the Federal Reserve Banking System?
Is it mere coincidence that the federal debt is equal to the assets of
the Federal Reserve member banks (and their subsidiary corporations)?
Is it chance that these same corporate sponsors give huge sums of money
to both parties, and the candidate with the most cash always wins?  I
suppose it doesn't matter that every president since Eisenhower
regardless of his party affiliation has been a member of the CFR.  



On the other hand, this is all just a bunch of paranoid hooey.  If we
all just vote democrat in the next election, every thing will be hunky
dory.  Yeah right!

i have an industrial hydraulics background and i am i am very familar with the 
process you are describing.one micron is very small.the average human hair is 
about forty microns in dia.what you need to find out is if the filter system is 
one micron nominal or absolute.noninal means the filter will trap down to 
thatsize but may let larger particles through.absolute means just that.nothing 
over one micron will ever get through.
the rest of the system sounds very similar to a system we used to remove water 
from a unit that used silver plated aircraft bearings.it worked very well but 
the plates would sludge up and have to be cleaned.   good luck

Looks like it only applies to cars that use spark plugs.  I think it's
a bit pricey.  Years ago I lost money investing in the company, but
the technology itself and the guy behind it seem to persist.  The
testimonial page seems a bit convincing, though there aren't many from
the last year.

lead
counter parts man we had a rich oil man customer who had a lot of vehicles.he
had a '69 pontiac bonneville wagon with a 455 engine that got 11 mpg on
interstate at 70 mph.He kept his old car and ordered a 70 model identical to 
the
69,picking it up as it got off the transport hauler.he drove it a few days and
the fuel gauge barely moved.he was going to carry it back to the pontiac
folks,but decided to pop the hood for a look-see first.he immediately brought 
it down
to us buick guys for a check out.Pontiac had let it get out of the plant with
an experimental carb on it.we got a one gallon jug of gas plumbed to the fuel
pump,six of us jumped in and hit i-20.the car got 36 mpg,we figered,as aposed
to 11 mpg on identical cars.gm tried to get the unit back several different
ways without sucess.there were several inventors back them promoting systems
getting great gas mileage,but the establishment has bought them out or killed
them as was done to a newman or newsom guy promoting an 80 mpg,large american 
v8
auto.happy hunting



i,

 i'm new to the group but have been around cars awhile.In answer to your 
question about the spark plugs the answer is maybe.Any car can benifit from 
alonger,hotter burning spark.However to get the maximum benifit you have to 
start tinkering with other settings such as timing,fuel curve and the like.The 
person to see the most increase would probably be someone who already is a 
conserviative driver.Someone like me would never see a milage increase due to 
the weight of my right foot.The mfg. will no doubt be able to proove a milage 
increase,but real world gains would be marginal at best.I could probably match 
or exceed their claims and increase my tire life to boot just by keeping my car 
tires inflated to 45psi.at all times.There are some winners out there,but these 
aren't them
