    Eeek. People with no teeth are better off than that.

    Usually eye burning is from decreased poor circulation. High blood pressure sets in. Then diabetes.

    They're going to store all the Dai Chi water there, so what difference will a little fracking make?

    While I would never encourage such barbarity as lynching apes, I think hanging some bipedal animals might fix some problems.

    Dai-ichi (第一) is a compound modifier phrase of Japanese origin, meaning number one, or first. In kanji, "dai" ("number") is 第 and "ichi" ("one") is 一. "Dai" is also defined "ordinal number marker." It is this feature that makes the phrase a modifier, or an adjective, describing a noun, as first.

    The problem with fracking in Cali is most of the oil deposits are along the edges of the tectonic plates.

    If you relieve those stresses it may slow the spiting off of Cali from the rest of the continent.

    Found a regulator in Stoops Dayton, and Stoops Columbus. Looks like their not that scarce. $100, used to be half that price. I’ve changed a lot of them over the years. Thought I was finally done, recently got both doors all finished. Almost every part. Rust free vent windows, new seals and window whiskers. Strike posts, hinge on drivers side. Took a long time, slow progress. Next was new door panels. I’ll find out tomorrow, regulator might just be jammed. The bar that holds window, tend to rust and swell up, getting caught on inside of door. Window stops 2” short. I thought I had all that fixed. Didn’t replace the bar though on passengers. It was still pretty good. I painted it, and covered it with silicone to prevent rusting. I have a new one, though if needed. Have to try to figure ways of keeping the same things from happening. Has to be the worst door design ever.

    Pressure is increased during the frac, you have to pump your acid, gel, etc... at a higher pressure than the differential. I've seen rates go from 90BPM at 3000psi, spike suddenly and you're dropping down to 5BPM at 6500PSI attempting to keep from screening out. In a really fortunate situation we send Halliburtons fully automated fleet in and they overpressurize to 10k.

    Denver is in the middle of doing this. I think putting interstates below grade is the new trendy thing for civil engineering. Who's going to notice an extra half billion dollars anyway?

    Sven: "I just finished adding my 17th traffic circle in a rural, low traffic area!"

    Ole: "How nice. Have I shown you my pictures of the new below-grade interstate remodel I just finished in the middle of a major city? It's pretty cute, if I do say so myself."

    Sven: (Goes to the bar for a fresh beer to cry into.)
