I have no basis for an informed opinion, eh? I said more than
once that I've used those jugs many times. The laws of physics
aren't any different just because one is fueling a boat as op-
posed to a race car.


And, oh yeah, you have some anger management issues.


You've got to be kidding; I had fun writing that, especially
the Lovecraft part. Maybe it's the inherent limitiations of
the printed word that prevented you from grasping that.

Alternatively, maybe it was just that you need to stop taking
