That's not what the cops say where I live. It's NOT OK for me to kill off the neighbors if they kill someone of mine. I'll certainly want to, but we are a society of laws. We don't just start banging away on the neighbors with our M-16s trying to see how many we can kill. That leads to anarchy and everyone dies. Why is murder OK when it's done by Zionists? I've wondered that for years. You are playing with words. Didn't the recent Supreme court decision show that the law allows an individual to defend himself, even by deadly force? I believe that in all states in the U.S. if you are being shot at and believe that you are in danger you are within your rights to shoot back. Cheers, Bruce (bruceinbangkokatgmaildotcom) |

Insulating both above and below the waterline wherever possible keeps condensation down, while ventilation keeps the humidity inside the boat close to that of outside the boat, but prevents stale air and heat build-up. Solar-powered Nicro Day/Night vents work very well if properly placed, combined with passive vents belowdecks. The problem is not heat and humidity per se, but differences in heat and humidity. If you're living aboard, however, in a temperate region such as NC where night temps are known to drop into the low 20's, keeping inside and outside air equal would be quite daunting! Gives a whole new definition to "frostbiting"! Kati, are you a troll? You should be able to figure out what to do when the A.C. is too cold... Cheers, Bruce (bruceinbangkokatgmaildotcom) |

Real anarchists believe that left on their own, most individuals will do the right thing without being forced. They believe in the basic good of people. And we've seen how well that works in places like Somalia, Afghanistan and our own "wild west" back in the 1800s. Both Somalia and Afghanistan have some form of government, with a president or prime minister, et al. Ergo, not true anarchies. But the improper use of certain words by the media (and yes, uneducated schmucks), allow peoples' perceptions of these ideologies to be manipulated and their definitions become blurred over time. Hopefully the digital divide will lessen in the backwaters, and allow more people to communicate and trade with each other. Tom |
