Ha Ha! I was conscious of that too!

I try not to go down rabbit holes on someone else's threads - only mine. But Bearkiller and I go way back and are "neighbors" (only live about 2 hours away). He's one of the few of you guys I've actually met in person. I've enjoyed going off on tangents that we have in common. And then circling back to what we came here to discuss...And speaking of the old comradery, it was a pleasant surprise this morning to get up, check the weather & emails while the coffee's brewing and find six! 6! six! "Replies to Thread" in the inbox!!! Sometimes anymore the board goes days with no postings. Nice to see some activity. I been worrying it was going the way of my favorite old Power Wagon forum...
Cheers,

Like being on my favorite gun forum. I can't bury anything in my yard. Buried a dog a few years back.Dug 2ft down and water started seeping in, That was the highest point in my back yard and no rain in a couple of weeks.

Cheyenne Indian burials, too.

Can't get much further from a dodge truck talk, now can we?

Them Indians' idea of level and plumb differ from mine.

It is interesting that people who live in a high-altitude bone-dry desert will do their burying up on scaffolds and people in always-raining Kentucky will try to bury their dead in a swamp.

Three ounces of Ethylene Glycol will kill a 140-lbs man.

Um, so, how come you to know the exact dosage for human LD? I know the part of the state you live in is still relatively wild and untamed but now I'm starting to worry a little. That why all them revenuers "went missing"? Anti-freeze bongs?

I was just adding a few random anti-freeze facts that I gleaned from researching my recent anti-freeze conundrum.

It isn't the Ethylene Glycol that is so deadly; but rather, the four far more deadly toxins that the liver converts it into; I guess that, if a person lacked a liver, then the anti-freeze would not be quite so deadly.

Haha! Wouldn't be the anti-freeze that killed him then - but the lack of a liver! Either way, dead is dead mostly.
