A search of
under NEWSGROUPS only showed posts from you to the newsgroups I mentioned. AND the VAST majority of your drivel is posting in sailing newsgroups. And almost all of it is rude and insulting. Go read for yourself. Know what's interesting? Your mean sprited full of sh*t replies are there in perpetuity, for everyone to see and read...EVERYONE can make a quick assessment and determine that you are a mean spirited Sociopath. Have you looked it up yet Jax? Jimmy |

A quick GOOGLE of shows that you post to alt.sewing alt.sewing? I was under the impression that JAXie made due with a pair of Speedos and a tin foil admiral's hat. Perhaps there is a whole line of JAX wear out there. Perhaps there is a jacket with extra, extra-long sleeves, for instance. |

Ole,
What do they cost [in US$], please ? Thank you.

jeffies, rational discussion is not possible with what psychologists call "literate" or "concrete" minds.

Libel is possible on the internet, as well as defamation. Wouldn't want to misuse the names function. The best diesel heater may be a kerosene lamp. If you didn't know you had one, it's free! The best Diesel heater can also burn kerosene and alcohol, or other spirits and liquid fuel, and has a small door for cleaning the interior, trimming the wick and burning small bits of wood or coal or even bones in an emergency. (Alcohol strong enough to burn is called "spirits" in England.) The best Diesel heater has a dedicated emergency fuel tank full of potable spirits, held in reserve, which enables it to be taken ashore for camping on the beach, and can be used to heat water enough for tea and shaving, and has a hook for hanging up gloves to dry, a grill for warming up the old boots before eating them, or grilling seagulls in hard times, or fish in good ones. The best diesel heater has enough windows in it that it sheds a little light. Adjustable shades would allow setting the atmosphere by adjusting the lighting, or for combustion, depending on the fuel used, quite accurately, we wouldn't want to coke up the exhaust channel. The very finest includes a water boiler core, useful for circulating hot water for space heating radiators or for distilling low alcohol content fermented scraps mash up to potable spirits status. Potable spirits are also useful as medicinal anesthetics and for sterilizing improvised surgical implements like sharpened coat hanger wire or shaving blades. When all standby alcohol containers are full, the boiling coil could also be used to power a small reciprocating steam engine, useful for ventilation by warmed air sucked or blown from fresh or return air ducts or ventilation or forced combustion draught, or for propulsion, or pumping fluids including the bilge, or even driving a dynamo for battery storage and use in the electric trolling motor. An external charging pump for the steam boiler function would be an extra cost option. In a world where "packet" meant the only delivery system in the world, driven by sail, devices with more than one function were eagerly sought after and sailors made do, making, mending and inventing. It seems to me that a person could use a coffee can for a fuel tank. With an adjustable lamp wick, and an exhaust chamber chimney pipe with an air to air heat exchanger made from tin cans, including a boiling coil, would be a possible DIY project, especially with steel pop rivets and copper flexy pipe. Maybe a Coleman or pressure kero (diesel) stove snap on burner chimney accessory, whatever, like a fancy kettle with a ventilated air jacket and a flexible metal vent stack you could stick out the companionway hatch? For occasional use only, of course. How serious a heating system do you want? DIY is best of all. HO HO HO Terry K "-Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!" -Christopher Cringle. |

alt.sewing?
I own a Sailrite LSZ and a Pfaff 130 for sail repair and canvas work (the Sailrite being a far better machine). I occasionally toy with the idea of making myself a high end Gore-Tex jacket. At the moment, a friend of mine wants me to make some beach coverup type things from some spinnaker cloth I have. FWIW, I lurker/post on quite a number of other sites, some of which are not open to the public (i.e. no riff-raff allowed). All sites deal only in stuff so legal you could show anything there to your aunt, the nun. Most have nothing at all to do with sailing. The ones that deal in valid information stay viable. the one that deal in bogus b/s die early deaths in their subject mater, though some stay as floating garbage wrecks unrelated to the original subject. |

All well spoken and right on the money. Incidently, defining AMPS
as related to 12.8 volts is silly. 12.8 volt is only rarely the actual voltage supplied. Doug s/v Callista "James" wrote in message .. .

In a nutshell, has anyone else noticed that Jaxashby behaves like a sociopath without a clue here? I am being quite serious. Jax spouts off rudely, demonstrates a callous disregard for others and offers an inflated, remarkably misplaced, egocentric opinion of himself.

Ask jeffie's wife to help you out here. follow closely, dougies, one step at time." These comments by Jax are deliberately intended to be rude and insulting right off the bat. I've noticed (as no doubt everyone else has) that virutally EVERY post that Jax makes is rude and insulting. If you gentle reader doubt that fact, go back and look. Just look at his past posts. No kidding. Seriously Jax, you need professional help. You are behaving like a sociopath. Not that you'd have the sense to seek it but you should. Here's a hint Jax... your rudeness is just a lame attempt at feeding your sad and shallow ego. Sociopaths do that all the time. Your ego is in the toilet because you are clueless and it shows. No other reason. Ask yourself why do you continually attempt to inflate your ego at the expense of others? Ever wonder why you are such a rude little M.F.? Look up Sociopath online. Seriously. Following that rude opening line Jax then adds : "amps" when used in the context of boating means "amps used per hour at 12.8 volts" Let's correct Jax's OBVIOUS mis-statement right here and now. AMPS in the context of boating means AMPS JAX, just like it does everywhere else. In the world of BOATING (as in every other industry) AMPS is a measure of current flow. AMPS is used when you want to know how much current is available for, or is being drawn by a device. AMP HOURS is a measure of how many AMPS can be delivered per HOUR. In other words CAPACITY. To suggest that somehow the BASICS of electrical theory and convention differ once electrical devices like batteries are deployed on boats is just plain stupid and frankly, quite irrational. To repeat for Jax: AMPS in the context of boating means AMPS JAX, just like it does everywhere else. No one in ANY industry (including boating) leaps to the foolish assumption that someone describing AMPS actually meant "Amps used per hour at 12.8 volts." To suggest otherwise demonstrates a serious lack of understanding of the basics of electricity. Someone that clueless has no business offering an opinion here Jax. Not that being clueless has ever stopped you before. It's truly a pity that a worthwhile newsgroup is infected with a dung beetle like Jax. It pollutes it, and renders it much more difficult to sift through the grabage he spews. Even filtering him doesn't help, as the responses (corrections) to his useless posts still filter through. Sad really. Fortunately everyone can see by his posts, what and who he is. This (hopefully) makes it obvious that people should ignore his bad advice. Wouldn't it be nice if Jax found a new interest and moved on to infect some other newsgroup instead? We can all dream. |

you are correct, of course dougies. using 12.8 volts as the approximate
voltage of a battery is just plain irresponsible. The correct number is 12.7835476589378 volts at 16.4797546429072 degrees centigrade and rel humity at 57.00004748470008%, the first number plus/minus 0.56983456, the second plus/minus 2.237899984 and the third plus/minus 40%. dougies, you powerboters who are terrified of winds above 12 knots slay me.
