Yeah, it'll be filtered properly before it's circulated in the engine, anyway. -- Not merely an absence of noise, Real Silence begins when a reasonable being withdraws from the noise in order to find peace and order in his inner sanctuary. -- Peter Minard |

Steve, in SW Utah Just set a 114 year record in Toronto Ontario at 13 degrees C yesterday.That's over 55F. I'm about 60 miles from Toronto We had a white christmas, and a green new years.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - We had the opposite, brown Christmas and white New Year. Went from 55 one day to 2 below the next. Have to have good batteries and motor oil to keep going with that sort of swing. Not unusual for the area, the record temps are over 100 degrees F apart for Jan. Guys can be golfing in shorts one day and need snow shoes the next. I can actually get some short outside projects done in the warm spells, just can't count on it staying that way. Stan |

It has been too cold the previous nights, down in the low teens. Last night was 28. Supposed to warm up this week to near forty. That means only one thing. MUD! Steve |

Supposed to warm up this week to near forty. That means only one thing. MUD! Yeah. We've had snow on the ground, and the freezing temps it requires, for the last week. But the rains are due back Wednesday. I think I'm going to stay off the roads Wednesday morning - while the rains wash the sand off the ice before the ice melts completely ... -- pyotr filipivich We will drink no whiskey before its nine. It's eight fifty eight. Close enough! |

Here in Fargo where I'm visiting until tomorrow, it's -11 F, same as yesterday night. Outside the window is a 10-foot-deep drift of snow, the result of relatively little snowfall (15" or so) but lots of wind. -- jiw |
