You haven't come up with a single, credible reason why it wouldn't

I almost never fuel my boat by any method other than with jugs. What's the
mysterious problem that Jim has when he tries to pour a liquid from one
container into another?


Jim Tried it. Jim thought it was a waste of time and trouble. Jim's problem
was that his time was much too valuable to be schlepping jerry jugs full of
gas some 200 yards to fuel a boat. The money saved just wasn't worth the
trouble. There were other reasons but that was the main one. I understand it
is the only option for some and I feel sorry for them.- Hide quoted text -

Awe, crap! Now you've went and engaged the two idiots again. Don't you
know that if Harry hasn't done it, doesn't own it, hasn't tried it,
it's just wrong?
