[Vwdiesel] Rabbit droppings # 123 -- ( the back to school geezer )

[H.Hagar]

This has to be the most educational thread for a long time.

William A Thompson    ----- absolutely the best link I ever saw on GOLD.

If you do not like GOLD ?  ---- you never found it for yourself in them thar hills. (I have)

James Hansen was a professional Gold Miner ---NO I cant top that.
( no wonder he is so wealthy he hit the mother lode)

And Loren we were talking about the reflection of heat NOT conduction. I did try 
a Space Blanket one frosty morning ---and they work.   They fit in a breast pocket.

I LOVE physics   ----and when Gavrik Peterson dropped in for a visit he gave me a CD
with ---a Physics lecture by a person who must not be named.
Thank you Gavrik   ---it did not go to WASTE.

To fully be a Diesel wizard ?  is this kind of learning important ?  IMHO very.

Gold is where you find it ?   RIGHT ? Right.

So one day I was looking in a dumpster industrial (a habit of mine)  I see some yellow
wire ----- NO shit is was pure 24 carat GOLD ----how did I know ? do not worry I
know GOLD when I see it.   I would still have the stuff ---except that two young
FEMALE school teachers came to visit from Cork Ireland .  They probably  have
the GOLD hanging from their pierced ears.   I wish them luck.
Remember at that time GOLD was 35 US dollars per ounce.(only).

Next I go to a scrap dealer in Vancouver BC   ---Atlas Iron on Prior street  ---what do I see ?
up in the attic there was buckets and buckets with yellow rings and balls ?
You guessed it GOLD ----the junk dealer thought is was brass.    So how does
GOLD wind up at a junkies place ? ---simple Winston Churchill signed an order
to give the Royal Navy all the gold they needed to beat the shit out of the Wolfpacks.
After the war some of the ships were scrapped in Victoria BC.   And they did not know
that all that GOLD was down there near the bilge. Shitty place if you ask me.

Is this the END of Hagar's love affair with GOLD ?   ---hell NO stay Tuned.

A Diamond conducts heat better than Silver ?  ---now that is important to know.
Take that with a grain of Sodium.( lets double check that one )

Today I am going to check and see if a Diamond will conduct electricity ---count on it.

Hagar.

PS :Life can be a gass  ----you bet.
