Nice evasion . I TIG CI with either strips of CI cut from an old

? Cool slowly after welding or peen the welds as they cooled ? Weld
it cold and pray ?

So funny! I don't recall much of what I did and didn't do, but I was
pretty sure that if I casually blew Dan off, he wouldn't be punky
enough to escalate this into a macho-dude challenge.

Hey, Coombs! My anvil is bigger than yours. You're a punk.

Nothing macho about it . You showed up here a couple of weeks ago posting
political drivel . I just wondered if you actually have any metalworking
skills . Apparently not . And I don't own an anvil - yet . But I do have an
aluminum foundry ...

Plonk him and forget him, Snag. That vegetable is a waste of CO2.

"When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the
government fears the people, there is liberty."
Attributed to Thomas Jefferson, but Massah Ed, he doan tink it so.

A spurious quote, most likely an "edited" version of a quote from John Basil Barnhill, 1914, in a debate about socialism: "Where the people fear the government you have tyranny. Where the government fears the people you have liberty."

There is no record that Jefferson ever said anything like it.

Since you have a proclivity to post spurious quotes, Larry, keep this URL handy if someone tells you something is from Jefferson. If it's from a rightard site, chances are it isn't:
