    Cargo Van Best Insulation for Van Floor

    That's cheap enough to buy a bunch of them and just sit them around the house, just in case. :D

    Just as important, which model of POS Chinese generator do you have, and where did you get it? :D Three years is a long time for most of those things. There may be a few who want to go that route.

    Cargo Van Best Insulation for Van Floor

    I don't recall seeing any pictures of yours of the insulation, or of the finished inside, but I do recall you building it with plenty of room under the floor for insulation. The comments about insulation weren't really directed toward you, but more to anyone reading who might not realize just...

    You'll receive a summons from the court forthwith. :D 87% Certified Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes, and a 6.9/10 on IMDb. Roger Ebert gave the film three out of four stars, while regarding the film as "not one of Burton's best, but it has zealous energy" and that "the charm of a boy and his dog...

    The 90% figure may not be far off. England is a little different, and are a few other countries, but most Muslims that came to the US came here specifically to get way from Islamic-controlled countries and the sharia law that controls it. The overwhelming majority of Muslims are not-hard line...

    Cargo Van Best Insulation for Van Floor

    A lot of that depends on how well your van is insulated. If it's not insulated very well, it'll run on the higher mode more of the time, resulting in more burned fuel. The airflow inside the van can also make a big difference, as you want the airflow to evenly distribute the heat rather than...

    Cargo Van Best Insulation for Van Floor

    A generator is a good idea, regardless. It's still cheaper over the long haul to use an Espar heater than it is a space heater off a generator, because the generator runs at full load an awful lot of the time, which burns through fuel at a rate not much lower than idling the vehicle's engine. A...

    Understanding war.

    Quite true. What is also true is, all wars, with only a scant handful of exceptions, be they fought between nations, inner city gangs, or in the school yard playground, are fought for one of two reasons: I don't like you, or, you have something I want. Sometimes for both reasons. That's more of...

    Tim Burton's Civil War Thingy? Are you talking about Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter? Or have you confused Beetlejuice, Frakenweenie or Mars Attacks! with the Civil War? Not to put too fine a point on it, but if you watch something and don't even know what you watched, or you can confuse Tim...

    Thanks for staying on topic, as usual, and not trying to make it about the individual.

    You've got a nice little false dichotomy going on there. The fact is there is a whole lot of in between. There are countless examples of where sharia courts have "taken the rights of real courts onto themselves" simply by not affording women the same legal rights as men. Sharia law is based...

    How you talk/where you're from

    I've lived in too many places, so some of my regional phrases don't match. I will also consciously use "you guys" or "y'all" depending on where I am. Same with "soda," "pop," and "Coke." It pegged me for Oklahoma City, Tulsa or Little Rock. Apparently, because of how I say lawyer, and...

    Like I said, you need to be better informed. Those types of extreme sentences are almost never given out in any sharia court in a country where Islam isn't the state government and all of the civil and criminal laws rely on Islamic law (the ones in purple on your map). There have been a few...

    You need to be better informed. This is not a deliberate spreading of misinformation. Sharia law is beginning to spread throughout Europe. It hasn't taken hold over large areas, yet, and that's why it's not on that Wiki page, but there is a movement to get it going. Sharia law entered Europe...

    Watch that freedom of speech

    You didn't like any of the sources RLENT cited, because they're all part of the propaganda machine, and you don't trust them. You then went on to state that you would not need RLENT to to inform you of what's really happening around the world, implying that you have one or more trusted sources...

    Watch that freedom of speech

    I wonder what constitutes an acceptable source, provided the information is nevertheless correct. Discrediting (or dismissing as irrelevant) the source is called the "Poisoning of the Well" logical fallacy when it is used to dismiss or discredit the information from that source. What if one of...

    Worst Restaurant Experience

    I wouldn't go as far as claiming to be a master chef, but I was trained in a French kitchen, and in my grandmother's kitchen. I can cook. It's actually one of the largest downsides to expediting for me, that I can't be in the kitchen on a regular basis. Moist is not crumbly, damp is borderline...
