You're a goddamned idiot, and you do not warrant any sort of response other than an insult, dipshit. You perpetuate that warrant with every post you make.

Properly treated the wood will even live under water. Many piers are made out of the stuff, and it's a lot better than creosote. IIRC, it's still allowed for ground contact/underground/underwater use, but not for homeowners (decks and such). The recycled plastic products are likly a better idea anyway. -- Keith

You can't have been around the internet for long in that case. It is common for threads to have a relitivistic blue shift because they digress so far. >I'm amazed too at just how anti-American some people living here >in the US are. Yes, it really is surprising the number of people who wish to destroy the very foundations of the country. They seem to have little regard for the heroic efforts of previous generation and no ability to see the wisdom of the system they created. With their left hand resting on a family Bible, they swear to uphold and defend the constitution and then say of it "It's just a goddamned piece of paper!" and work to subvert it at every turn. Sadly, the days of "give me liberty or give me death" have been replaced by a weak kneed generation that would give up its rights in thrice when threatened with a tiny risk. These are the troubled time we live in. -- -- kensmith(a)rahul.net forging knowledge |
