We have all kinds of crap stored. There is even a Kaypro lugable in there. Hayes modems, Stallion serial ports cards, Seagate 20 Mb disk drive, 8-inch floppy disks. At least the System 36 units went away. At some point, the CP/M unit left, but one of the drive cabinets is still around.
According to the show on one of the Testosterone Channels, the Green Berets use a kind of "medical tee shirt" on their candidates that transmits vitals and location data. IIRC, there was a panel on the shirt that housed everything. This new item seems to be more in the area of comfort than function.
So, no progress is bad. Spending every penny you have on progress is bad...If only there were some gray area, in between, where we could have some progress, without starving to death because we spent every penny of our country's GDP on research...If only someone would invent moderation...
What might be an even better example is one of the Vegas casinos (forgot which one) that has a moving sidewalk to take you from the street to the entrance doors, but leaving you walk on your own.
I can see the line itself draining out from a pump leak. And, I could see the bowl drying out from a different leak. I had a 72 Ford wagon with a failed power valve. A small leak at first, it caused a drop in mileage and hard starting because it was always dripping fuel into the intake. If the engine was cold, the bowl would be dry. If it was warm, it would be flooded. Then it let go completely. Lots of smoke out the tailpipe.
Did ethanol cause your pump to fail? Maybe. I didn't see an increase in pump failures, but I know people claim there were. I have seen a lot of clogged filters. It's possible that some gunk was loosened by the ethanol (in your tank, the gas station tank, etc.) that stopped up the filter and caused the pump to let go. It could have cleaned out the pump so that a leak that was stopped up started again. Or, it could have been coincidence.
I will not argue with your gas cap, but my '68 Ford ran for years on gas with "up to 10 percent ethanol", and never had any problems. It was used as a daily driver until brake parts had to be special ordered, then I sold it. Also, I don't think your fuel bowl dries out because of a leaking pump. I have not worked on every brand of carb out there, but all the ones I have had the fuel inlet too high in the bowl to siphon much gas back out.
It is intellectually dishonest to see an unambiguous, clear-cut chain of events and announce the cause to be somewhere in the middle of the chain, don't you think?
Absolutely. When you come up with one, let me know.
The police are not there because you were called a cunt. The police are there because you called them and apparently reported someone on site who had no reason to be there and was refusing to leave.

Friends of the Farkles?
Saltpeter?
No, no, no. Everyone knows how magnets work (also microwave ovens), it's non-fat dairy creamer than nobody know how works.
But, can you use it to incinerate ants?

I would, but I don't have any mod points.
I always said New Yorkers thought their shit didn't stink.
Paul uses Voice 1.0, but Leto II uses Voice 2.0
Maybe the AC works in a dark cubicle, and meant morels?

You from Boston?

May I suggest a new name? It's the Cloud War. Just to be even more nebulous.
Would that be Cumulonebulous?
Jimmy Soul, is that you?

The fact they have never had a fatal crash (the only such major airline) is reason I would rather NOT fly with anyone else.
I always go Greyhound. They've never lost a plane.
True, but no major air carrier has ever had a plane come down with parvo.
Serge, the Seal of Death!
Wow! Robot 2 sounds just like Daniel Tosh!
As it turns out, the kid has been saving money (something I did not think possible) for a new machine, so I guess the 8250 will ride into the sunset.
You mean like, "Get all the planes out of the air, turn back international flights, and nobody goes up again until we say so"?
Want to sell it?
Why do you think they named it "Sync"?
