    When I was about 9 yrs old, I’d seen on TV ( maybe Nova ) that hot water freezes faster than cold. I think I filled the ice trays up with hot. Lol. I remember his saying “ “ “Son stop and think about what you’re saying. That’s impossible, makes no sense at all”. Years later he mentioned it. Seems he heard the same scientific explanation. Lol.

    On my last truck I replaced the oem deep cycle, dual purpose batteries with 950 standards. The trip pac didn't like it and cut on and off too much. Truck started great but it made the apu a little wonky. The dual purpose don't crank as good but I'm all about keeping my APU happy.

    Ha! That reminds me of my wife and I staying in a back porch room at my moms house in Louisiana. It was tiny. They had the toilet plumbed to hot for the same reason. Not mixed, but hot. Had to flush it quick, to avoid a nasty stew, then be careful not to get scalded. Lol. We got our own place in 3 weeks, ASAP.

    I’d guess deep cycle batteries would work better using an inverter also. My current Truck problems may have started from leaving my fried inverter hooked up. It was off. No way to know for sure, but voltmeter was showing high, yet voltmeter on my good inverter showed 13.8-14. Batteries shorted out, or loose connections cause all sorts of havoc.

    Dude...do you have any idea how long the measles vaccine was tested before it was approved...#1, and
    #2...there's a HUUUGE difference between an mRNA shot and the "live" virus that was used for the measles vaccine.

    ".......understanding how these vaccines are causing these blood clots that are producing fatalities............"

    Definitely should be mandatory for anyone in New York and Connecticut to be vaccinated weekly.
