I loved the part where they said they were undercutting the recycling program. The goal was to recycle plastic and they were recycling plastic. What California is complaining about is the 2017 #1...

Last Friday I was previewing an auction and noticed a bunch of chemicals and powdered metals with no lot numbers. Powdered metals sell for $10 per pound and up on ebay so I asked about the powdered...

Yes there were glasses with gold. Look here.

The wife absolutely hated the ceramic top stove we had. Nightmare to keep clean.

WOW! So much misinformation.

First: The use of lead for wheel weights, shooting and fishing have NOT been universally banned. There are 10 states that prohibit using lead for wheel...

Yep!!

No oil means no trains or trucks. No ocean vessels carrying cargo. About 2/3 of electrical power shut off. Cities would die off in days or weeks. Politicians wouldn't have anybody to...

Really! If they wanted to keep the guns out of the hands of the insane people they would be talking about mental health, but all they are talking about is banning assault weapons. If you look at...

Thanks olddude. I had 10 of them I had set aside thinking they were stainless bottoms with Al fins. Never got around to putting a grinder on them to check. Just checked, pretty red under a shiny...
