Self Terminating Thread (9)
That is very interesting, my friend but........
This is the second thread of yours I have looked at this morning and I am not clear on the purpose of either. What are you trying to say, love?? Do you have a question for us??

Dear Dandelion,
Thank you for your comment. I was just trying to write something I hoped someone would think was interesting. It pleases me to learn that you found it very interesting.
Do I have a question for you? Let me think, oh, "How many Irishmen does it take.... ," no, never mind.
Ok,here's one (old as the hills). If a plane crashed on the Mexican/American border, in which country would they bury the survivors?

Cooooooooool.
Brass pins in steel hinges..no rust..but wear down tooo quickly.
I would have used Stainless Steel grade 303.
Tens times the waer resistance..no rust..no electrolisis..because they are not totally disimlair metals..
The country they would be buried in would depend whether or not they are deportee's.

Good Morning to you Dand,
How are you this fine morning....
In response to auto's thread maybe he's reflecting on his childhood day's and remembering the skills his father shared with him at the time and how he earned lots of money to buy candy.......
We can all relate to that at times in our lives when we got money and thought we were rich.....and how all our prayers had been answered.....how simple life is when you are a child...
and then he grew up to learn about chemistry and looked back at the stupidity of the metals being together.....what a little knowledge can do for one.....almost take away the fantasy.....
So i guess he's just reflecting or reminiscing his life.......

Hinge Pin Changer
My father owned a sheet metal shop in the 1960's. While I was still a child he decided to introduce me to the world of work. He showed me how to remove the steel pins from hinges used on fire dampers and replace them with brass pins.
This was supposed to address the problem of pins rusting over time and the doors not closing in the event of a fire. From the little that I can remember of my college chemistry, putting brass pins on steel hinges probably made the problem worse.
I was paid one penny per hinge. On a Saturday afternoon I would often earn six bucks... a fortune for a kid back then. I blew the money on candy and cheap plastic toys made in Japan.
