I’m wondering. Remember H1-N1? Mass hysteria? Stock Market going crazy? Who’s going to make money? Who’s pushing the most hysteria?

I work in a gov't office in a secret underground undisclosed location, as they say.  No, really.  We received a briefing from an epidemiologist in Washington State.  He said that if you put someone in

Thanks for your interest!  My feelings weren't hurt. I was thinking people were more interested in the American political situation than combating the current crisis.

Here you go:

Homemade hand sanitizer gel:

Ingredients

  1. 1 cup of 91% isopropyl alcohol.
  2. ½ cup of aloe vera gel (natural or store-bought)   
  3. 15 drops of tea tree oil (or another antibacterial essential oil)

 

 

·          If you add some glycerine, it will stay mixed, otherwise you need to shake it.

·         White vinegar can be used instead of alcohol

·         “Thieves Oil” is available at health food stores.  It can be used instead of tea tree.  Also any other antibacterial essential oil.

·         Use an empty container with a pump, or…

Question is, does anyone know that the Chinese have been studying the Corona Virus in bats for years and now it’s attacking the world. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2020/02/200210144854.htm

Every year up to a third of all colds are coronaviruses. Adenovirus and rhinovirus are the other main cold bugs. This is just a new unusual (novel) one. Nasty cold you could say, not the "Mutaba" virus from Outbreak...

Again, studying the virus in bats trying to find how it’s able to do so well when infected, then it either escapes or is purposely set free and the small city gets an outbreak, travels across the world infecting the population shouldn’t be categorized as “The Flu” especially when it was of such interest to a communist dictator wanting to control the world and currently jailing his fellow countrymen.

The CDC was not allowed to inspect because it would then be determined that China was working in biological/disease warfare and the dictator wouldn’t like that now would he. Best way to keep riots from happening, set lose a biological agent and voilà!

I am stopping short of saying “bioweapon”. Lab manipulated-yes. Accidental release-No doubt. Just my .02

The latest no more than 10 people gathering. Sooooo does mean no flying, working, restaurants, gaming, etc. So I guess Marshall law is next. All new programming stops. Maybe a national 2 week paid holiday. The only problem you have to stay at home.

Are you prepared to share a little?you got rentals,mr.bigbucks,the money has to come from somewhere,lol

If you’re referring to me. I use my rental income to go on vacations. I’ll probably have to help my daughter who cuts hair for a living. And possibly my son who sells homes for a living. My renter who’s a realtor may have hard times I may have to be forgiven some rent for her. If may old business runs into a problem I may have to forgive some buy out payments if he falls on hard times. That could preclude me being able to help anyone. My vacation rental property may not rent either. I certainly can’t touch my Ira for obvious reasons. I may have to take Social Security early if all else fails. That will reduce my monthly for going early. Get the message? I have a lot of eggs spread between many baskets, with carful planing for many years. This little exercise could change my life and a few who depend on me. Imagine the people who don’t. All because our media is hell bent on finding ways to hurt Trump. I truly believe that. I’m not alone.

      PF63 Oil Filters Going Away?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      The guy that owns K&P filters last I checked in with him has over 300,000 miles on his Dodge base Hemi using his own 35 micron absolute stainless mesh filter from its first oil change.    The GM study I've posted a dozen times shows the relationship in engine life based in multiples of base units, not miles or years. That is the base unit is the number of miles the motor ran using the reference filter efficiency.    The above two paragraphs dismantle anecdotal arguments IF one changes oil often enough to prevent particle formation and the motor is in otherwise good shape. That is not full of silica (no air filter) or suffering a metallurgical issue that is not part of the lubrication discussion. Poor heat treat in example.   Data from UOA's I've reviewed from more than a few engines can show remarkably broad variations in oil cleanliness using the exact same filter over the course of an engines life.     Lastly there is the common sense of it. Wear debris WILL circulate the engine BEFORE it ever sees a filter in route to that filter and WILL harm the pump which NEVER sees filtered oil.    Alpha question then becomes, given the facts, how long do you believe is a reasonable service life from a vehicle you are certain you will not pass down? That is the junk yard will be it's resting place when you're done with it? (the moral issue most don't care about).    Omega question is then how diligent are you prepared to be in general mechanical, air & oil maintenance? Preventing particulates and keeping them sufficiently dilute; preventing the precursors from generation, amalgamation and precipitation.    If I get a good look at the engine bay of a vehicle I have a fair idea of the owners commitment to the inside of the power train. That 30 micron WIX is still more efficient than a sieve.

      It also depends on what criteria someone is using for “best” when talking filters.  Are we going off best efficiency?   Best quality/QC?  Etc. because the two may not mutually exclusive.

      They’re not the same wiz as 10-15 years ago.  QC has fallen pretty hard.  The XP line was never good though in the first place.    https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/wix-filter-rusted-through.386492/post-6991372   https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/i-ve-used-my-last-wix-filter.27299/   https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/looking-for-a-better-replacement-for-wix-51258.403977/   https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/convince-me-in-using-the-purolator-boss.401537/post-7420147   the forums are littered with posts and examples of not great wix filters the last couple years

      I'd guess that it's because they are Mann-Hummel filters since about 2016, they own Wix and are mostly all made in China now.
