General Discussion / Re: GBCA Can Recycle Program

Quoteit would be much "GREENER" to through them into the salt water and let them disintegrate.

Here?s a great experiment to try at home for science fans of all ages.  Get you a gallon pickle jar full of water and put in a half cup of salt.  That will be a very close approximation of your average seawater.  Take an aluminum beverage can and put it in.  Be sure to rip it or slash some holes in it so that any coating/graphics don?t slow the electrolytic action and the seawater can go straight to work.  The typical wisdom among ?offshore recyclers? is that the can will be dissolved in three days.   See how your home experiment goes and report the number of days it took your experimental ?can overboard? to dissolve.  Post your results!

The best lack all conviction, while the worst are full of passionate intensity.

What about Blackburn?  Weren't they related?

General Discussion / Re: PHRF RATING AND RUM RACES

From PHRFGB May Meeting Minutes:

"C&C 12                       Parrot Tales                                                 

Base changed from 78 to 81"

Maybe this is the source of confusion...

And rather than allowing it to languish at the bottom of the Category, it has now been brought to the top, in all its dated glory?

Sometimes you?ve got to let those hard-to-reach chips go?

Mmmmm.  Chick-O-Stick.  I hope they have those at the party...

Quote"Of course, GBCA wants us all in single handed boats and too tired to come to the party. Given."
Huh? I had to read that twice.
Can I pretend I never read that on the ForRum?
Sorry but I'm pushing the BS button on that one... ***BEEP***

"you don't do anything band-wagon"
What? where? What wagon? I didn't read that at all.
Where's my button?

QuoteI have to say that Island Time was out there and the weather was less than desirable and getting worse but, there were boats hanging around and taking names. My opinion is that if you can't stick around and take names then either the weather is too bad for everyone or one hopes that they can brow beat the committee into believing that each can finish whenever and email their opinion of the finishers in. There are rules for a reason. Let's play by them.

Butch-up, Sally.  It's just a rum race.
