  1. Now is good time to sow wildflower seeds into that mud. https://meadowmania.co.uk/collections/100-wildflower-seed-only-mixtures-no-grass No need for the mower all summer ! Peter
  2. Moss..the favourite habitat of Tardigrades. https://bna-naturalists.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/Introduction-to-Tardigrades.pdf
  3. Metering Unit diaphragm. The 'tongue test' is quick:
  4. Pure water is by far the best at conducting heat: https://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/thermal-conductivity-liquids-d_1260.html Peter
  5. It should be enclosed with glass in the door(s). If not the chimney will rapidly pull warmed air out of the room. We burn smokeless fuel 24/7 all winter in the main room, about half a bucket daily. Not green I know, but the fire does not fail when the leccy supply does ! A flat top allows a pan to be heated. The fire never goes out, a covering of ash over new nuggets will easlly smoulder for 12 hours overnight. However smokeless fuel is sulphur-rich, the tailings from oil refiining, so check the specs. A carbon monoxide alarm/monitor is wise if there is the possibility of combustion
  6. Keep dogs, cats away from glycol, its sweet tasting and can be fatal if ingested. IIRC it was used to make vinegary wines more palatable, way back. Peter
  7. Read Dennett's book John. Levitation IS real. Once you have assimilated the evidence then we can have an informed debate. Many Worlds is completely different from the Juxta hypothesis. Juxta builds upon local anomalies in 'time' . And gravity is an acceleration with 'time' as component. Unfortuentely physics does not understand 'time', different branches use different concepts. Most deny it flows, adhering to Einstein-Minkowski block time ( also needed for MW). The Pons family of physicists have proposeed time is a property of matter, not a universal dimension ( https://cordus.wordpress
  8. Hi Roger, For me it's good fun exploring the unknown.! Peter
  9. John, There is a saying about horses and water....................You need to read the book in order to make informed comments. I have read extensively into the paranormal and UFO/UAP phenomena, around 300 books. And it is blatantly obvious to me that current science cannot explain these events. And hoaxing and your magic are also impossible explanations. As a scientist well versed in research - with five papers published in Nature - i am shocked by the sheer weight of evidence for human levitation. It is enormously important that it be studied with new measurements. Here is the
  10. 'Impossible' events in biblical tales also appear in the paranormal literature. Shadrak, Meshak and Abednego displayed fire immunity. DDHome the victorian medium could hold a glowing coal cupped in his hands.https://vdocuments.mx/nandor-fodor-encyclopaedia-of-psychic-science.html?page=312 The resurrection from a cave sealed with a rock is frequently reported as 'matter-through-matter' events experienced by UFO abductees, mediums and poltergeists. https://www.encyclopedia.com/science/encyclopedias-almanacs-transcripts-and-maps/matter-passing-through-matter Ezekiel's wheel resembl
  11. Blaine's hoax uses video trickery, inserting a sequence in which he was hoisted off the ground.
  12. Human levitation is fascinating, it is impossible in physics, and in our experience. We are certain it just cannot happen. Period. But human levitation is real, it happens and cannot be wished away as hallucinations etc. I strongly recommend this book by Preston Dennet for a detailed excursion through the literature with ca 350 examples, from catholic clerisc, spiritualist mediums, poltergeists, to current experiencers. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Human-Levitation-History-How-Guide/dp/0764325477 One levitator was seen to float up the the ceiling and pass through it. That happens o
  13. Anyone following this thread will see that this Harvard astronomy prof is barking up the wrong tree. But at least he is barking, unlike 99.99% of academic scientists who assume he must be barking mad. https://www.businessinsider.com/billionaire-backed-harvard-prof-says-science-should-take-ufos-seriously-2024-4?fbclid=IwAR3dRK7C0BRXNranAfn6WusGJKMqLtx9oZD66Kn26ZGFTRgOsPnUPi3UTA4 However the Sol Foundation have taken him under their wing so his paranormal horizons are being extended beyond ET. The late Prof John Mack the Harvard psychologist who studied UFO abductees was nealry fired b
  14. Tim, I hope your expertise with the Eaton supercharger kit wont be lost to the forum. ATB, Peter
  15. note that the rotor arm turns anticlockwise Peter
  16. I'd use it...........in a museum exhibit. But not in a car for driving. It conducts heat worse than water so it increases detonation risk, the enemy of supercharging. Peter
  17. My guess it its firing at 11 After TDC, as in Andy's post above. Especially if the farts and bangs are in the exhaust. Peter
  18. The Americans might know if the tractors are still at the pole. BAS does not have a base there.
  19. South Wales, 1983. Night of the triangular ufos. UFOs are not peculiar to USA ! https://www.mufog.co.uk/post/wales-a-hotspot-for-uap-encounters?fbclid=IwAR12Cp3DSJhsNWfy4gml1j3hBNznYkanGrheKSsfPUdei1QJTddtEA7ml_0_aem_ATU-6vVQTgWaAR9hyPaeyCHOk_ol2Oy-lf3qSx5_Oa5YcVSQ7ph-8EXwS49SfKda0gFLKI9UCCH0OSyqZoLFtLRA Peter
  20. I must be the only soul on here who still avoids on-line banking. Its because I simply dont understand how on-line safety can be guaranteed. And in view of the Post Office and smart meter fiascos I do not trust the bank to be on my side either. Years ago I had a credit card replaced as its details had been in a hack in USA. The only purchase it had been used for in USA was for an anti-virus package !! Peter
  21. The book camber settings will not apply if springs are non-standard or if rear anti-roll bar has been fitted. Camber changes markedly with body roll and spring compression. Spring compression makes camber more negative, body roll makes the loaded suspension more positive. Ideally we want the loaded tyre to be flat on the road surface during hard cornering, and that cannot be set statically.
  22. Is retorqeuing advised with Payen gaskets that have the heat-activated varnish coating ? loosening might break that seal.
  23. Thermostat stuck closed ? What did temp gauge show? Not sure what your coolant is, do you know its boling point ? Peter
  24. The pressed steel diff hanger can part-fracture and give a single knock upon taking up drive from a standstill. The crack can be diificult to see. It fractures on the right side (driver's side) vertically from the lower edge and towards the curvature of the bush seat. Peter
