It IS quite a book, isn't it? Aye..."The Whale", by Melville...arghhhh. And of all those many pages, the single sentence that boils ALL of it down to the essence might just be this: - "From beneath his slouched hat Ahab dropped a tear into the sea; nor did all the Pacific contain such wealth...

But then we miss all the fun of watching the near-hopeless recovery from our armchairs:

Hey, Ferroequinologist, I meant to circle back and apologize to you. I was stupid as a kid (not saying I got over that either), and the things I did might have turned wrong, and for more people than just me. Now, finally, I get it. That statistic of yours (every two years), shouldn't happen...

It's all good: - In a pinch, it COULD make a nice flower pot!

I remember -in the day- insulating an attic space using that same ingenious method. It was the scientific method. Worked like a champ.

The whole point. Outstanding.

Hey, rustystud, I'll lend you my calculator. See?! Run the numbers . Here, check it out for yourself....

The Gods of The Green Iron are always listening, looking for a laugh. Don't take it personally. :shrugs:

Must have been a STRONG wind blowing that day...

Hey, Kick, if you're up to it you might post a stand-alone thread here on SS about this: - Label it (date included), and - Post a link (or at least the particulars like place-and-time) Chances are you might get a right respectable turn-out!
