  1. I had to study the relative sizes before I could see the answer. Now that I have, I think I'd like to buy one.
  2. As I've said before, if I worked at Burger King, it wouldn't be difficult to find a job close to my home of 16 years with its greenhouse full of orchids and mature fruit trees, but since I am a research chemist I must deal with a commute. It's the way it is.
  3. I think the main reason is the #2 covers the entire range of both Camalots #0.75 and #1 and even starts to get into #2 territory. That's the meat and potatoes size of any rack.
  4. I would have said exactly the same thing as Slothrop, but he beat me to it.
  5. Can you explain exactly why the #2 is so much more useful than the #1?
  6. U R just jealous.
  7. How many of you can say you've won the UK Lottery three times in one week? I know because I've been informed by e-mail. It's amazing luck, considering I don't remember even entering. You gotta just take what providence sends your way.
  8. You should keep that leg elevated as much as you possibly can. No standing around on it. Apply hot compresses to promote circulation.
  9. There's some threads that needs killin'.
  10. The palms aren't native anyway. They were brought in by the yuppies in the first place.
  11. Catapult isn't that hard, but Damnation sure is!
  12. Blake got it.
  13. Attention is the next best thing, isn't it?
  14. I do a lot more bailing than I do baling, as I have hay fever more often than I have hay.
  15. Yeah, but so is the South Face of Jello Tower.
  16. I'll be damned. That's quite a forecast. Soon we'll have to go outside to collect buckets of air.
  17. I'll take it. Buy you a beer at the Lock Spot after a workout at SG. Haven't seen you there in ages, though.
  18. Bailing wire is what is holding up the tail pipe of my Acura.
  19. Well at least you didn't get hanta virus. That is scary shit, man- literally.
  20. How can you make a guy choose between two friends like that? It's like asking a guy to choose between pizza and beer. It's not right.
  21. The story stops on purpose. You are supposed to think the author reentered the cave and never returned to finish writing. I liked the story. Very creative. It would be a great one to tell around the campfire. I was wondering about the TR though. Who in their right minds would plan to do a cave route with only one headlamp? You read trip reports all the time from people benighted without headlamps. They figured they'd finish the route in daylight but were too slow. But going in a cave and not bringing a headlamp for each climber?
  22. Once the price gets high enough change will begin, but not before. You can't get people to change just by telling them to do it. They'll respond to price and price alone. It's going to be painful, no doubt about it. As Dru likes to point out, too bad we canned the monorail. That was one of the dumbest decisions the Seattle voters ever made. If that vote were held now, the results would have been different, but gas prices were still cheap at the time.
  23. Several people were interested in these plants. I'll be home all weekend, dividing and repotting orchids. This would be a good time to come and get some plants. Call me and I'll give directions to my house in Shoreline. 206 769-5627
