I got a tube of GB Ox-Gard OX-100 to coat the sections of my Butternut HF9V

or petroleum grease based. Does anyone out there know ???

In this country, there is regulation that requires availability of a
Material Safety Data Sheet (which contains such information), and they
are on a public web site. Perhaps you have similar arrangements in
your jurisdiction.

I just located an MSDS for Ox-Gard via a web search, and it's quite
unrevealing. It doesn't identify the ingredients except to say that
they're non-toxic, and it doesn't identify a flash point. It did say
that combustion could release CO2 and aldehydes.

My cousin is a Dairy Farmer in PA.
His cows produce more CO2 per hour
than three GMC Pickup trucks running
at idle for the same time period. Wonder how
Mr Goore would address this problem?
Diapers for cows perhaps? (grin)

Back on topic however, when you get back to the office
next week, just place a call to the mfgr of the product and
ask him to FAX or e-mail you a .pdf file copy of the
Product MSDS sheet. Tell them you're using it at your place
of employment for anti-corrosion usages for commercial
antenna installations and your ISO:9000-2000 Internal
Quality Procedures Manual mandates that all products have
an MSDS sheet on file. I use this 'method' all the time and
it seems to work. : )

The Space Shuttle is equipped with CO2 scrubbers.
Just install one per cow.

Methane, Dave.

I won't say that global warming is happening or not. However, the
science is sound regarding CO2, methane, and other gases that tend to
retain heat in the atmosphere. The relationship between these levels and
heat retention is fact.

Perhaps there are mitigating factors going on. Perhaps ocean life can
sequester the excess CO2, perhaps something else?

Instead of picking on "Mr Goore", perhaps you folks that know better
can provide scientific evidence of the mechanisms that are countering
the so called "greenhouse effects.

Of course, global warming is happening. It has been
going on for tens of thousands of years and happens
every time the earth cyclically emerges from an ice
age as it is doing now.

I'm speaking of CO2 based global warming, whether as the results of say
volcanic activity, or as a result of the amount of CO2 added to the
atmosphere as a result of combustion release.


May I assume that you believe that glacial cycles are the sole source
of global warming or cooling?

Right after he invented the Internet, Al invented the
cow-talytic converter. It doesn't makes much money
but he's milking it for all it's worth. I have no beef
with him over that. He can skim the cream if he
needs to. He has no udder way to make a living.

No bull.

Yeah! The Almighty Politicians!

Everytime I exhale [CO2 and H2O vapor] I raise the CO2 polution level. We simply
have to pass a law outlawing exhaling without using a catalytic converter.
