I'm staying away from this one too. Other than to say that the whole global warming thing is a scam.

Another place you can get small spools or lengths of stainless steel 304 or 316 wire in various gauges is http://www.smallparts.com/ Also screen. I didn't check prices to see how it compares with McMaster, but it's another source for anyone who is looking.

I can almost agree with you, and in fact, I suggested nearly the same thing. The operative difference is your use of the word "Make". Personal responsibility involves freedom of choice, a concept that is entirely at odds with coercion.

Hey, if you own Mt Hood, go for it.

Who's place? Sounds more like you're talking about the fact that your right to a reasonable response to such an event is also regulated such that you are not free to protect yourself. Your liberty infringed again.

All such laws, regardless of gender orientation :), infringe on individual liberty, and therefore suck.

That's why it's best to get government out of it. If government provides a service, everyone has to pay for it. That gives the state more leverage to pass more laws that infringe on personal liberties. Private solutions are best.

Homosexual laws about underage drinking and possession of alcohol? You're in college? Sounds like you need a refresher in Biology, and maybe in Civics too.

No more laws, please. Just get government out of it. You know this will likely develop into a political thread and get shut down, right? Often the states try to bill back the costs for the rescue to the climbers, but they generally won't get their money back. The costs are overwhelming, so...

Well that sucks, doesn't it? There's nothing like having the state usurp parental prerogative, is there? Don't ask, don't tell.

I have no actual knowledge on the subject, but I think in all states minors can consume alcohol legally at home when it is administered by their parents or legal guardians.

Laws vary from state to state. Your state's statutes are the best place to find the answer. Technicality: If you are really 19 like your profile says, you are not a minor. You are an adult who may (I do not know Georgia law) be under the legal age for purchasing alcohol or consuming it in...

I racked to secondary today. My OG was 1.057 and my FG was a surprisingly high 1.020. I wonder what would cause that? Target was 1.013. One of my other recent brews dropped another .003 in secondary, so maybe this one will drop a bit more too. Anyway, it looks good and it tastes...

I'm a lazy brewer, orfy, but I think it improves the quality of my beer anyway. I haven't racked to secondary yet, but I will later tonight. That'll be 19 days in primary, which isn't unusual for me. Then I always go a minimum of three weeks in secondary before bottling. That's the two...

Blender, orfy posted about Lyle's Golden Syrup in this Invert Sugar thread. I also explained how I brewed orfy's recipe for OSH using American measurements and substituting Karo and molasses for Lyle's Golden Syrup and substituting Turbinado sugar for Demerara. See post number 26 in orfy's...
