So, how was it? I had some coho last night. Delicious, although not nearly as fresh as the osprey's.

Yea, but new radiators are _expensive_.
Yeah. $350 for this one. My friend says he can get them for $125. We might have to test that statement.

The radiator in my E-350 van retails at about the same price. I got a new one for $112

"Lenin called them "useful idiots," those people living in liberal democracies who by giving moral and material support to a totalitarian ideology in effect were braiding the rope that would hang them. Why people who enjoyed freedom and prosperity worked passionately to destroy both is a fascinating question, one still with us today. Now the useful idiots can be found in the chorus of appeasement, reflexive anti-Americanism, and sentimental idealism trying to inhibit the necessary responses to another freedom-hating ideology, radical Islam"

Yeah, like losing a 24 channel t-carrier system, having multiple customers out of servce, and finding a lizard spread eagled across the decoder card at one end.
Pzzzzzzzzt!
Ford wanted about $00 for one for my truck a couple years ago. i bought a new one from Radiator Barn for $123 and change. i ordered it by credit card at 3:30 PM, and UPS delivered it the next day.
Mice and rats do not have a urinary blader so they can't "hold it" and piss trickles down their leg at all times. Isn't that wonderful?

I don't know how it is in Canada but here in the states all the boxes of moth balls have warning notices on them that spell out how it's against the law to use the moth balls to repell or evict animal pests. Lord protect us from the Nanny state.

The warning is actually to protect users. Using mothballs to repel mice in a house is a very bad idea (because it will affect people also) and so the package warning is correct.
I would never even think of using mothballs in a house, myself.
Using them in a generator enclosure, though, is acceptable to me.

I'll tell you a story if you promise not to turn me in.
We had chipmunks chewing their way into the space between the outside lap and inside finish. My wife heard (probably on Oprah, as that is where she gets this shit from) that mothballs will evict rodents.
With my wife, anything that's worth doing is worth obsessing over or doing to the 33rd magnitude. I poured a few mothballs into the opening. She had me continue until I had poured in two boxes. After two seasons, the smell is there, although it has gone down. A little. I foresee one day of pulling the boards just to get to the trove of balls and get rid of them.
Stock up on mousetraps, as I hear that's the next Obama project right after he finished up with handguns.

They do have urinary bladders (don't have gall bladders). They just don't have the same conventions as us as to when to empty them.

Is that where they got the idea of 'trickle down' economics?
Never heard of that, but then, the current supply has resided in a glass jar, not the cardboard packaging the came in, since I bought them 24 years ago - a little goes a long way! Gerry :-)} London, Canada
As posted a few minutes ago - a little goes a long way! One box is still going after 24 years and at least half a dozen skunks. Gerry :-)} London, Canada
My bro-in-law's Grand Cherokee had a mouse find refuge in the heater. Happened in his heated garage. Problem started a couple hundred miles away from nowhere at -30 degrees - much clatter, no fan, and about a grand when the dealer got ahold of it. They (the dealer's bloodthirsty drones), but the thousand bucks put kind of a damper on said BIL's amusement, so say nothing of all those hours with only the back seat heater fan doing anything.
Mouse was effectively mulched, however... /mark
On the other hand there was a famous family anecdote in my family about the time, apparently prior to my arrival in this vale of tears, when my father blocked a rat hole in the kitchen by nailing a flattened tin can over the hole.
After several years my mother still claimed she could smell the decomposing rats....

I have a box of 'Enoz' brand moth balls in front of me. The only warning is that it can affect humans and domestic animals. I fond nothing on the Willert Home Products website.
Says: Not for use to control squirrels, bats and birds in the home.
And there is a great reason for it also, which is that mothballs are poison for people. The warning is 100% correct.

Not for use to control squirrels, bats and birds in the home. This are usually a problem in the attic, where the high temperatures will cause them to break down rapidly, and they are highly flammable. That, and any spark, like from the thermostat on an attic fan, and you could blow the roof off the house.
