Don't forget that the 'bipolar disorder' is a great addition, here. Common transistors are often "_bipolar_ junction transistors." Jon

That is very different from the usual definition of heavy industry (it normally includes steel making, major chemical and petroleum, mining and other cases of requiring acres to square miles of physical plant). > >> My point has not been successfully refuted. > > They have, just that you refuse to recognize your foolishness. > -- JosephKK Gegen dummheit kampfen die Gotter Selbst, vergebens. --Schiller

We do get wood rot though. ! There's some new kind of stuff at the lumber store. I don't like the feel of it but it's supposed to last and not need maintenance and stuff. It feels like very rough to my fingers. It would be a pain to keep clean because the surfaces are not smooth. It also feels very, very heavy. /BAH
