'00 Z71 w/4.8L engine
Posted 19 September 2002 - 09:38 PM
The reg cab/stepside is what I'm particularly interested in, but the only issue that I'm concerned with is the 4.8L engine. What can y'all tell me about it?
Right now I have a 4.3L in my '99 ZR2 with some bolt-on mods and I'm wondering if I should hold out for this same style truck with a bigger V8. Any opinions?
Thanks in advance!
Posted 20 September 2002 - 04:41 AM
For everyday driving the 4.8L will give you alot more power than you're used to, and decent gas milage too!!!
For heavy towing/hauling the 5.3L would be a better choice. But since the truck is a reg cab stepside, I have a feeling it will mostly be just a driver.
Just make sure it doesn't have the 3.42 gears in the rearend. I would want the 3.73's for sure. Good luck!!!
(It's a shame you can't find a leftover '02 in that configuration... They are practically giving them away right now)

4.8 testimonial: I have one in my 2001 GMC SLE Ext cab 2WD. I am VERY pleased with it. I get great mileage (over 20 on the hwy if I drive it 65-70 mph). Around town I get between 17-19 depending.... I tow a 6000 lb boat back & forth to the harbor (coupla miles) no sweat. Same for my Ford tractor which is around 8000 lbs....Tow it @ twice a year for 25 miles or so.
The 4.8 has plenty of power & acceleration to suit me, I don't drive like grandpaw either.
If I were younger and getting a 4WD...I'd look for a bigger motor just because that's the way I am. I dunno how much power you lose with 4WD either but I suspect that the 4.8 will do ya just fine unless you wanna race it.
If you would have bought a 4WD with a 305 in it...then you will be very suprised at the power because the 4.8 runs circles around my old beater with a 305.
If the price is right....Buy it I say!

If it doesn't have enough power for you, you can always slap on a supercharger or do a heads/cam package.

It's no racecar, but it's no slouch either.
I only get 16mpg, but I hear that's not bad for a heavy 4x4.
Posted 20 September 2002 - 02:09 PM
Just make sure it doesn't have the 3.42 gears in the rearend. I would want the 3.73's for sure. Good luck!!!
Thanks again for the info...much appreciated!
I have the assembly sheet for the truck but I'm not sure what the RPO codes are for the available rear gears. I went to my local dealer and asked the parts guy to check it and he said it has 4.10?!? Can that be right? Does anyone know the RPO codes for the gear size?
Posted 20 September 2002 - 02:50 PM
GT5 4.10:1 Rear Axle Ratio
Check your glovebox. Itll be listed in there also
Also for your reference on this page look ove to your left under Features. There is an RPO section. Lists them all

Apparently, it does have the 4.10 gears 'cause it has RPO code GT5. I'm planning to offer 'em $17.5k and see if they'll take it.

A manufacturer of guardrail systems is defending itself against lawsuits that claim the manufacturer knowingly installed unsafe and defective guardrail systems on highways in Florida and throughout the country. The specific product at issue is the guardrail head or end terminal, which is supposed to take cars that are swerving off the road and guide them off to the side. According to the plaintiffs, the guardrail systems do not perform as intended; instead they roll up and shatter or ram into the car causing catastrophic injuries and death.
The plaintiffs argue that, without notifying the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), the guardrail manufacturer reduced the width of the end terminal and the height of the guardrail's feeder channel and then installed the redesigned product on federal highways. Plaintiffs estimate that hundreds of thousands of the redesigned guardrail systems are currently installed on highways around the country. In addition to death, victims have also suffered from internal injuries and severed limbs.
The manufacturer has admitted that it failed to notify the FHWA regarding the design change, but argues that the change does not impact the safety of the product as evidenced by the fact that the guardrail systems passed the safety tests administered by the FHWA. In defending itself against the lawsuits, the defendant denies that its products were the cause of the injuries.
If a manufacturing or design defect results in injury or death, a products liability attorney may be able to proceed against the manufacturer of the product to recover financial compensation for damages. These damages may include lost wages, medical expenses and loss of companionship. If the victim dies as a result of the defective product, the victim's family may be able to pursue legal action against the manufacturer.

The U.S. Green Building Council and the Green Building Certification Institute have released an improved version of the green-building rating system, which standardizes language across all categories and overhauls the LEED-accredited professional system, turning it into a tiered program. The current release includes LEED 2009, LEED Online Version 3 and a new certification process based on ISO standards. It also updates all the LEED categories at once, including those for new construction, schools, core and shell, commercial interiors and existing buildings. LEED Online V3, the implementation tool, has been retooled to be faster, more responsive and stable. USGBC has seen demand for new projects requiring review for certification rise from 60 a week a year ago to 160 a week now.

This was my HG lipstick until I discovered YSL's Blond Ingenu. It looks beautiful against my pale skin, and it doesn't dry out my lips. The pink is a beautiful almost-nude on me. I wear Angel fairly often with Rimmel's East End Snob lipliner.The only con I can think of is that you have to reapply once a day or so, but it layers beautifully and the packaging is so sleek and elegant. 8/10!

I wanted to love this lipstick color so badly. It is a gorgeous color and I can see how it could look flattering on so many different skin tones. It just looks slightly off when applied to my lips. I'm not sure if it's just personal preference or not. It is supposed to a warmish, neutral pink but it looks kind of cool on my own lips. Thankfully I got this utilizing the Back to Mac program so I didn't have to pay any money. But still. I wish I had picked out a different shade and really analyzed it in different kinds of lighting. But check it out for yourself because it looks nice on so many people...just not me.

I love this lipstick! It's the perfect color to wear when you just want a light pink color on your lips or have a really dramatic eye. Of course like all Mac lip products it smells like vanilla , which is a plus for me. It applies smoothly and evenly and never feels heavy on the lips. I can always count on this product to pull my whole look together

Highly recommended

MAC's Angel lipstick was the first lipstick I've ever bought and I still absolutely love it! It's a gorgeous pink neutral shade that is great for everyday wear or if you have a dramatic smokey eye this lipstick is perfect to tone down the look. MAC categorized this product as a frost, but in my opinion it is not frosty at all which is a good thing! (I tend to stay away from frost lipsticks because I do not find them flattering at all). This is staple lipstick that should be in every woman's collection and I will definitely keep on repurchasing it :)

Definitely my favorite Mac lipstick. It's a nice pink beige colour perfect for everyday wear. Would match most skin tones. Great for a natural look as well with a smokey eye.
That being said nowadays there are many cheaper dupes for this lipstick that are just as great. And with this lipstick being almost $20 and not overly lasting its probably best to buy the cheaper alternative for me anyway.
A perfect dupe for angel is maybelline colour whisper in lust for blush and half the price.

Upon purchasing, I was at the MAC counter to buy the bombshell lipstick, but they were sold out and the guy said Angel was the closest match. So I bought it, and I'm really glad I did because the color is very flattering. Yeah, you may need to re-apply a couple of times, but it's so moisturizing that it's okay. It's only $15 and I'm really happy with how it turned out.

Talk To Me: Laurie Anderson's Favorite 'Wrong Science'
Art-rocker Laurie Anderson thinks of herself as a kind of god. That's what she told theoretical cosmologist Janna Levin during a session of the Rubin Museum of Art's Brainwave series, which pairs neuroscientists with artists and visionaries from multiple disciplines.
Anderson spoke with Levin about everything from the nature of time and light in outerspace to scientific concepts that have since been disproven. Spoiler alert: Levin's favorite "wrong science" is technicolor — a theory about subatomic particles and "a proposed fifth force that led to particles acquiring mass as the universe cooled."

On Size: "I'm a miniaturist, and I don't go for universal stuff. I go for details. I love little tiny details."
On Understanding Everything: "I'm an artist, so I think of myself as a kind of god."

I AM SO SORRY THE ELA ARE NOT COMPLETE YET! Ya'll... life with two babies under the age of 3 is CRAZY. I promised the cards with hopes that I would have ALL this free time in the summer. Well, it didn't happen. It just didn't. I tried and tried, but every second of my time is consumed with my small ones. And, I'm okay with that.. I just hope you all can be okay with that. I am going to do the ELA, and I hope to have them ALL out by the end of December. So, for my planning purpose and to answer all your questions about when your grade level is going to be available, I have created a schedule that I will keep... I promise! So, check out your grade level and when the cards {vocab & 'I can'} will be available in my TpT shop. After these, I will not be taking any custom orders at this time. Ya'll, I miss creating things just for fun...
4th Grade: September 1
1st Grade: October 1
3rd Grade: November 1
2nd Grade: December 31
I'm assuming that these all will be out earlier than listed here. These dates are the latest they will be available. Once I complete the first set and see how long it will take, I will adjust the schedule accordingly.
Thank ya'll for understanding. It really means a lot. Also, I've had a lot of people commenting that the definition font on the cards is difficult to read from afar. After printing these off, I agree. After the ELA cards are complete, I am going to update all the math files with two versions, the original and the new version with easy to read font. Don't worry, the ELA will come with both as well for those of you who are already using the current math version in your classroom.
We started school on Friday and this week is my first full week. I am looking forward to this school year, and I can't wait to implement and use all the adorable things I purchased off TpT today. I hope ya'll have a great week!

Located on the western coast of the island, known as the Platinum Coast, the Sandy Lane resort sits on 1,000 feet of white, coral-sand beach beside the warm, sparkling waters of the Caribbean Sea.

Just some of the fabulous features of Sandy Lane include: private verandas with every room, touch-screen controls at your bedside - to adjust air conditioning, the TV and even the curtains without having to leave your bed - and unlimited use of the tennis courts and access to windsurfing, kayaking and snorkelling.
The signature pink furnishings of Sandy Lane are unique to the resort, and the blush pink theme runs throughout the restaurants, sun loungers and flower arrangements. Every finer detail has been thought of and even the kids are catered for to keep them entertained the entire time. The Treehouse Club is a fully equipped children's club catering for all young ones ranging from 3-12 years of age, offering a wide variety of indoor and outdoor activities.

In keeping with the golfing reputation, top international golfer Tiger Woods wed Elin Nordegren, a Swedish model, at the resort in October 2004.
The luxury of the Sandy Lane resort is reflected in the prices, with the least expensive rooms starting at approximately $1,010 per night and ranging up to $25,000 per night for the 5-bedroom villa during the Christmas period.

The report finds that more states are reporting on the participation and performance of students with disabilities for their general and alternative assessments than ever before, and presents recommendations to further improve reporting practices: (1) report not only the number of students with disabilities assessed, but also the percentage assessed; (2) report results for the alternative assessment; and (3) report the number and percent of students with disabilities using accommodations.

I recently discovered a battery charger that not only charges rechargeable batteries, but allows you to recharge Alkaline batteries too!
Recharge Alkaline Batteries
When I was a young boy, I had a friend, who's father was an electrical genius. He was always creating breadboard projects. One such project was a charger that charged dead batteries.
In my adult life I had pretty much relegated that memory to voodoo ,and the tricks that the brain can play on itself, but recently that all changed!
Not too long ago I was surfing the web and saw that someone had mentioned, in passing, that they had read someones post about a battery charger that allowed them to charge their old Alkaline batteries.
This is how I stumbles across the Maximal Power FC999 Universal Rapid Charger. I read up on it and researched the charging of Alkaline batteries.
I read all the reviews on the Maximal Power FC999 Universal Rapid Charger, then looked at this big box of dead batteries, that were destined for a recycling center. I then decided that if this thing worked, I could break even rather quickly.
The Maximal Power FC999 Universal Rapid Charger, uses an 8 bit microprocessor that utilizes an advanced RISC architecture with integrated converter and multi-channel high speed input/output ports to intelligently monitor and actively controls the entire charging cycle of the batteries, in real time, to prevent overcharging. It also has built-In negative delta V cut-off function and short-circuit protection.
They claim that they can recharge an Alkaline battery to %75-90% of original capacity up to and beyond 30 times! MORE THAN 30 TIMES! This isn't a guarantee, but a rule of thumb, mileage will vary.
When you insert a battery into this charger it can determine within a few seconds if it's bad and will let you know.
Maximal Power FC999 Universal Rapid Charger charges the following battery types:
- Ni-MH (Nickel Metal Hydride)
- Ni-CD (Nickel Cadmium)
- RAM (Rechargeable Alkaline Manganese)
- Alkaline (previously Non-Rechargeable) batteries
The Maximal Power FC999 Universal Rapid Charger arrived yesterday and I've been charging my box o' dead batteries. I have had 2 "bad" detections so far, and there were a handful of batteries that didn't pass my visual inspection, everything else is charging right up.
This charger is essentially a computer itself, so it can optimize the conditioning cycle and charging cycle for each individual battery. The rechargeable batteries, that I charge in this charger, last much longer that they do if I use other chargers!
The ability to recharge regular (alkaline) batteries, is very cool. Instead of ditching these dead batteries, I'm getting to use them over and over again!
One thing to keep in mind, is that Alkaline batteries weren't designed to be recharged, so some of them may leak. After you charge them let them sit on a safe surface and watch for leakage for a few days, to ensure they don't leak in your electronic devices. The cheaper batteries seem to do this more than the high quality batteries!
I found another charger that uses the same technology as the Maximal Charger, but also has 2 USB ports (a 1 amp and a 2 amp), so I can charge my mobile devices! Now I have 2 awesome chargers, but the Digital Treasures ChargeIt Battery Station Pro Battery Charger sits in my office so I can charge my phone and my tablet! I didn't realize how handy a charger in my office would be, but with wireless mice and keyboards, there's always a dead battery happening somewhere!
I wish I'd had known years ago, that the technology exists to recharge alkaline batteries. I already have a small solar setup for charging batteries, but adding this charger to the mix would open the door to batteries that most people would discard without a second thought. It's recycling, therefore it's good for the environment and smart prepping!
Got a second to help me out?

The right fabric, good dimensions, solid design. My go to bivy for alpine climbing and seriously foul wet/cold weather tarp camping in the cold.Condensation is seldom a problem, unlike any ****-tex bivy I've tried, and it even does better than Epic bivies (it's just not as light).The downfalls of the South Col: waterproof zip technology still suffers - zips are high quality and weatherproof but pull too hard, and they could be lighter. Hard to argue with much else.

Over $470,000 worth of miracles happened in St. Lawrence, Jefferson, and Lewis counties last year.
Thats how much money was raised from multiple events throughout the north country for Childrens Miracle Network of Northern New York.
We allocate 100 percent of the funds to the local area, said Morgan OBrien Bocciolatt, CMN development manager. Its exciting to be so successful.
In 2013, the agency received two bequests that brought the final amount closer to the half a million mark, but there also was much support for annual CMN events, such as the radiothon that raised more than $150,000. The agencys first triathlon raised $18,000.
Some funds raised went toward equipment or services for children in local hospitals and health organizations, but much goes directly to north country families who contact the local CMN affiliate for assistance with travel or medical expenses for their sick or injured child. Miss Bocciolatt said in 2013, more than 40 families received assistance.
There are no income eligibility guidelines. CMN is there for families as they go through the process of caring for their child ages birth to 18, or 21 if a dependent or in college, who has a medical crisis, she said.
We want to be involved, Miss Bocciolatt said.
The agency helps families with children who have developmental delays, birth defects, cancer and other ailments.
After CMN families receive assistance, they often continue that relationship with the nonprofit and volunteer or participate in annual agency events, Miss Bocciolatt said.
When they get really involved and most do its because they want to give back, she said. They want people to understand that CMN is real and its local.
People interested in helping CMN come up with new fundraising ideas can call Miss Bocciolatt at 785-4053.

Napa Home & Garden's assets were acquired by floral and decorative accessory firm Teters Floral, Napa announced August 4. It will continue under its current name as a division of Teters.
Following a series of lawsuits related to serious injuries caused by the company's firepots and gel fuel, the national wholesaler filed bankruptcy on July 5. Teters Floral stepped in to purchase the company's core assets, which ensures that orders and shipping will continue.
Napa Home & Garden will maintain showrooms at the Atlanta, Dallas, Denver, High Point and Los Angeles markets. It will also go forward with more than 75 of its current independent sales representatives.

The university has completed its first greenhouse-gas inventory and adopted an environmental commitment statement affirming the university's dedication to environmental responsibility and accountability.
"Vanderbilt is one among a small percentage of schools that has undertaken the completion of a GHG [greenhouse gas] inventory and made it publicly available," says Judson Newbern, deputy vice chancellor for facilities and environmental affairs. "Subsequent annual calculations of emissions will be conducted in the future to measure progress, which also will be made publicly available."
Greenhouse gases trap heat in the atmosphere and are emitted through both natural processes and human activities, such as the burning of fossil fuels, decay in landfills and the carbon cycle. Vanderbilt emits greenhouse gases through many of its daily operations such as the combustion of coal, use of electricity, commuting and waste disposal.
During the baseline period of 2005–2007, average annual greenhouse-gas emissions produced by academic, research and patient care areas on the university's 330-acre campus amounted to an estimated 487,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (MTCO2E). Academic and research areas accounted for approximately 302,000 MTCO2E, or 62 percent of average yearly greenhouse-gas emissions; the remaining 38 percent are attributable to patient care areas.
Emissions sources at Vanderbilt include purchased electricity (45 percent); coal use (24 percent) and natural gas use (8 percent) at the on-campus co-generation power plant; and commuter travel (19 percent).
"These major sources present the most significant opportunities for improvements in Vanderbilt's current carbon footprint," says Andrea George, director of the Sustainability and Environmental Management Office (SEMO).
Environmental initiatives implemented to reduce emissions for the next GHG inventory report include:
Vanderbilt's Environmental Commitment Statement was endorsed by a number of key stakeholder groups on campus, including the Vanderbilt Student Government and the Faculty Senate. The university also will promote lifelong learning about sustainability practices for the benefit of the Vanderbilt community.

I got my Union Hill Dressage pad in from St. Croix Saddlery the other day, and I went to the barn today to see how it worked, although I couldn't ride because of the rain. I put my Stubben Parzival Dressage saddle on one of the horses, Gracie to see how it fit her, and it fit well. The issue was the pad. I didn't take pictures, but it seemed pretty long on her.
I'm not sure how it fits the TB, Goldie, that I ride also, she is out with an ankle injury.
Anyone else had this issue with Union Hill pads? I'm afraid the pad will get in the way of my cues. Should I order another pad? It seemed long on her, so is there anything I can do to shorten it at all? I noticed my saddle doesn't have long billets like some saddles do, so the girth was on the pad. Should I try an AP pad, or get a smaller one? The pad also seems a bit thin, so should I get a half pad, like this one:

Petitions call for elected mayor and town council
Published at 10:09, Thursday, 21 November 2013
SIR – I congratulate Copeland MP Jamie Reed for realising the benefits of what a democratically elected town council will have for the people of Whitehaven and, for the town itself.
And thank you to Councillor Paul Whalley for his letter (The Whitehaven News, November 14). His reply to our calls for Copeland to have its own elected mayor referred to my saying that this form of local governance will be more democratic.
He asked: "Does this mean that the majority of areas in England that do not have a directly-elected mayor are undemocratic?" No, Coun Whalley, I did not mean that. His interpretation is somewhat simplistic.
What I wrote is that the council leader/executive model in other areas of England works mainly because the council leaders and executive members incorporate democratic approaches built within the form of local governance they practice. Some of the attributes they have are:
listening to what people are telling them and acting accordingly,
practising in an open and transparent way,
accepting financial responsibility
and being held accountable for their decision-making processes.
I have not exhausted the list.
If he really wishes to gain an understanding of how the greater majority of the people of our area view the current CBC – and I am sure he does – he should turn the preceding four examples into negatives, and will have an insight.
The financing of the elected mayor in totality will be more than met by looking at the present hierachy of CBC and exactly how many tiers of management are really needed. It is already recognised, and appreciated, how hard-working and innovative council employees are "on the front line", so it will be the upper echelons that will be looked at. It is envisaged there will be a surplus of money when a democratically-elected mayor comes into being.
Since Coun Whalley raised the money topic, when you look at council tax arrears in Copeland for the year 2011 to 2012, the total outstanding, unrecoverable amount is £588,770, more than double the figure for Allerdale.
Coun Woodburn's attempt at scare-mongering on her blog on the council's website is just random figures plucked out of the air. She quotes £120,000 to have a referendum for an elected mayor. The actual figure will be a mere fraction of her guesstimate because it will be run in conjunction with next year's European Parliament elections.
Currently, the allowances plus expenses for our 51 borough councillors is in the region of £300,000. The number of councillors we have will be scrutinised with the view of decreasing the numbers.
Councillors' remuneration packages will also be closely looked at with the "expenses" system reviewed in order that council taxpayers receive value for their money. Currently, and blatantly, this is not the case.
I also thank Coun Whalley for his offer of "educating me on some facts". Most appreciated, but our pool of resources is more than adequate.
I am pleased to observe he is now out of the local political wilderness having previously resigned.
There have been scurrilous remarks that some of my associates are anti-nuclear. This is not the case. Anyone who writes or circulates such, I request to please stop.
The good news: the elected mayor and town council referendum petition forms are now out on the streets for signing! There are sheets at selected shops in Whitehaven Market Place available for people to sign. As more of the town centre is covered by me and my associates, more business owners, who give permission, will hold petitions in their shops for you to sign. The rest of Whitehaven will be covered followed by the rolling out of the petition sheets to the remainder of Copeland, so that you can have the opportunity of making your voice heard to embrace the democratic process, as opposed to the closed regime that exists at the moment.
Only people who live within the Whitehaven area will be able to sign the petition for the town council, but everyone who lives in Copeland being able to sign the Elected Mayor sheets.
Please be careful when signing the sheets: all in block capitals please (except for your signature) because the petition sheets will be scrutinised by CBC before they go to local government secretary Eric Pickles, who will then order CBC to hold the referendum for the people of Copeland to have the democratic choice of how their future leaders will be elected.
Some people have asked to have sheets given to them in order that they may gather signatures themselves. If anyone has questions please contact Carla Arrighi's shop in Whitehaven Market Place. And don't forget, you will have your vote every four years, for YOUR choice of leader.
A final point: my associates and I are non-party political. We do not favour Conservative, Labour or any political party (some sitting councillors have approached either me or my associates to voice their interest).
We support common sense. We support democracy and the elected mayor option that will work in partnership with the people of Copeland. This will bring our once thriving area back to where it needs and wants to be: successful and prosperous.
Bern BIRBECK
SIR – It's very heartening to see CBC at last engaging with the electorate through The Whitehaven News, however Coun Whalley's comments last week again are merely a piece of glossy spin.
No one is saying that an elected mayor somehow makes other areas in England undemocratic, just that in this instance it simply would make Copeland more democratic. Can Coun Whalley tell readers how many councils reverted from an elected mayoral system back to their previous arrangements?
As to the cost of an elected mayor, well again the cost would not be as dramatic as he tries to make out. An elected mayor would I hope employ at least a couple of good secretaries but he or she would get rid of the highly-paid chief executive and his secretariat and the council leader's associated costs, and I would think he could do away with enough 'tidy little numbers' so as to make his post in effect much cheaper. The cost of referendum on the two issues is not massive if run as part of the next elections.
With regard to a town council, with such a relatively small budget to spend [Coun Whalley puts the figure at £300-£500K] why would a town council need premises? A very small office would suffice and meetings do not need to be held in palatial surroundings.
As an obvious 'Old Labourite' he can't or won't accept that someone can run some things on the principle of small government. Everything the current administration touches has to be hidebound in cost, expenses, fancy offices and staff, consultants etc etc. He has some cheek given the cock up his lot made over the Copeland Centre to even mention the word rent.
Does Coun Whalley honestly think Whitehaven town centre is not dying on its feet or that the benefits of the nuclear industry are not percolating down to the man in the street? That his council has not got an incredibly lamentable record on all fronts as do a number of individual councillors? Does he not see there is nothing to keep our young educated people from staying in the town, or that the loss of amenities just goes on and on, or that there are no original policies coming through? The ruling administration is autocratic?
I, for one, side with the idea of this being a time for change. Our neighbours in Workington have re-invented their town centre, and it's a credit to them. Tell me what things you personally have done that you can stand proud and say: "I did that"?
With regard to the comments of Ms Stacey Smith, her comments are even more outlandish. If a system of elected mayor was adopted then one would vote on the policies that person's standing presented. How she can equate a desire for a change in the electoral system as an anti-nuclear vote is simply preposterous – no individual would ever be elected on that platform in any case.
At least this subject has got our councillors to wake up a little and even our MP is getting involved albeit against the avowed policy of his Labour party run local authority.
Woodhouse Road, Whitehaven
SIR – Regarding Stacey Smith's letter, I assume that she is a parish councillor and the email she has received was forwarded to her by her parish clerk, as I have no email or other contact information for a Stacey Smith and I have only contacted Copeland's parish clerks, borough councillors and our MP about a new elected mayor petition.
I do know of some Smiths from my days at Faslane on nuclear subs and I think there are a few at Sellafield, even some maybe were at the now-defunct SDS for whom I did design contract work for when called upon. What would my ex-mess mates now at Pelindaba think if I were now anti-nuclear?
Perhaps if she had the guts to provide her address or contact me directly I would be able to assure her that I am certainly not anti-nuclear in any way. I am anti the stupidity of those seeking to place a GDF where it is geologically unsound and against public opinion and past Nirex and MRWS judgements. In a letter on the opposing page to her letter last week, I was calling for referenda in both Allerdale and Copeland on the matter in the name of democracy to finally settle the matter.
A public apology would be nice but I never expect that from the likes of her.

Gumball Machine Fishbowl
- A new home for your little betta
- Includes 20 decorative "gumballs"
- Cover is removable
Both gumballs and fish take us back to our childhood. They were something our parents could trust us with when we were very small which fortunately had limited consequences if it turned out we weren't old enough yet to understand the concept of "responsibility" (if you were the fish or the sister with gum stuck in her hair, your memory of the deserved consequences might be slightly different).
Combine these two into one with the Gumball Machine Fishbowl. The fish swims in the top above 20 colorful "gumballs" instead of gravel. Created intentionally as a tank, this cast metal base with glass globe is guaranteed not to leak. And no matter how many times some idiot turns the crank, sushi will not come sliding out the bottom.
