i think this quote is from the Spinal Tap movie:
"why does it go up to 11?"
"because everyone else's only goes to 10"
"why didnt you just make 10 louder?"
"this one goes up to 11"

is this a joke? :lol:

jones57742, it would seem that my magnetic personality has warped the time-space continuum and sucked the latter half of your post through a worm-hole into the universe of the Loach Forum from its rightful place within the Mildew Way of the Off-Topic Forum.

Martin: I very much respect your experience and knowledge. (your publications are more than evident of this statement).

Please ask your friend to legitimately comment on my post and reply.

Unless I am way off base here I believe that you will be surprised as he (your friend) may not have ever "thought of" some of the basics.

TR

BTW Martin: my comments are based on classical and not relativistic concepts as set forth in your response post.

There is no friend.

There are no magnets.

There is only The River Tank Manifold.......and the rapidly departing April 1st.

I wasn't 100% sure this was a hoax at first until when you mentioned dosing iron and the plants were growing toward the pump.

My plant radar was on full alert.

Sorry I missed this yesterday, well done Mr T. :lol: If we hadn't been so busy with fish shipments yesterday, I might have tried a follow up to last years 'Turner & Robson prank'. :twisted:
