Sure, everyone _thinks_ that they can drive well, but so did they -- after all, they had been driving for two decades before they got unlucky. I really don't think that this risk is worth saving a bit of money. Of course, YMMV. -- --- Aahz (@netcom.com) Hugs and backrubs -- I break Rule 6 <*> http://www.bayarea.net/~aahz Fifth Virtual Anniversary: today! You must Sign in before you can post messages.

Subject: Re: Bleach & Ammonia - DON'T
> bleach and ammonia produce cl gas which is deadly Many years ago my scout troop was cleaning a camping cabin and our leader (a registered nurse!) decided if bleach cleaned well and ammonia did too - let's mix 'em and REALLY!!! clean. Well, all us scouts (grade school age) were coughing and had our eyes watering and finally went outside (windows were shut because it was winter). Our leader tried to indicate we were kind of wimpy not being able to stay in and clean. Later that day when visiting another camp site another leader informed our leader about the fumes from such a mixture being toxic. Our leader never lived that one down!!!!!!! Ah . . . the good old camping days!! You must Sign in before you can post messages.
