Gasoline dissolves RTV easily.

Key word in that report: Fatal. If we look at low speed parking lot type incidents, those numbers would tell a very different story.

I've found more than one package on a grocery shelf. The worst was watching a lady pull a package of ground turkey out , open the plastic and feed some to her dog. Naturally she left the package behind.

Any home roasters here? Been roasting my own for the last 15 years.

Kenichiro Saruwatari, chief engineer on the new Mazda3... There's a cultural disconnect on the language here. When he refers to high speed , he means spirited driving. If it was his primary language we would have seen a different phrase.
