  1. I am a pharmacy student working on a project regarding mountain sickness. These are the drugs I have found so far that have been used for altitude sickness (not all have good evidence for this use). Have any of you heard of others? Acetazolamide (Diamox) Methazolamide (Neptazane) Nitric Oxide (INOmax) Sildenafil (Viagra) (weak evidence) Ginkgo Biloba (conflicting evidence) Dexamethasone Thanks.
  2. We used to do that when I lived in the dorms. It plugs the hole and cures the smell. They should make all spackle wintergreen.
  3. I got it mounted. I have the good kind of studfinder (not magnetic), but because the building is so old and has plaster walls, it was throwing it off. I found enough solid material behind the wall to get 6 #9 x 3" screws holding the plywood up. The hangboard came with five screws that I just put through the plywood and wall. It holds me up just fine. Thanks for the replies.
  4. Spackle is cheap, right?
  5. I'm thinking about a Metolius Slim Gym for my apartment. I've read the reviews that say it's cramped, but it's all I have space for. My problem is that the wall where I want to put it has no studs (even at the edges of the doors). I am, however, reading about 1 1/2" of ceiling joist sticking down into the wall with my studfinder. If I screw the top end of a piece of 3/4" plywood into that inch of joist, then mount the hangboard on that, will it hold my 190 pound arse? Has anybody else dealt with these that can give me advice?
