I've read this is like partitioning a hard drive... almost exclusively

no longer done, due to advances.  Being still ignorant, why was it done?

>I am not able to edit the FAQ sheet at this time   

*On some sites, the contributor acts as the best editor,

*tho someone does specifies a "template" style for headers and body, for

uniformity, and ease of (computor aided) search.

>It is not necessary to know HTML to edit the FAQ's, If someone has time

and wants to do this, and can put in MS Word, I can turn it into HTML.

*Even Word does this now.  And most browsers, via which it would be

sent.

  Out of curiosity, what software & version do you use?

* This wouldn't be as full featured, perhaps.  And may tempt one never

to bother advancing the FAQ, without which, it may be used less often. 

Tho' a comitted group, could use it initially, or a long while, then

convert fairly easily.  It would buy time, as there are likely oodles of

past info for culling by members.

Just thoughts! Generous offer!

PS  Got a response from the HP guy using Faq-O-Matic  He has passed it

to another administrator, but was well enough pleased.  I'll forward any &

all, to any interested.  I doubt 90% of the readers want to check it...

Good night all!

I am seeing 45 mil EPDM pond liners priced at about $ 0.60 per square

foot.  Does that seem about right to you all?  Is there anyone on this

list who would like to sell me a pond liner for less? Or co-op on a

bigger order?  Or know how I could become a distributor and get my liners

wholesale?

I live in TN near Chattanooga.

I am also open to a suggestion for a different material if you have used

one successfully.

Thanks,

Carolyn Hoagland

You can find a much better price for pond liners at Boatcycle Co.

(800/333-9154) located in Texas.  The  government natural resource

agencys recommend this grade for strenght as well.        Ken

Hello Carolyn: Check out the roofing companies in your area. They use

this on government contracts. Also check if they have torn off any of the

Firestone rubberized material, they will sell it to you cheep. They

should give it to you to get rid of it but they say they have cost of removing.

Take it to a car wash and clean it, they use powerful cleaners. Make

sure that the companies  do government roofing because no one else could

afford this type of roofing. And it is required on government jobs. The

Firestone  rubberized  kind can be patched with regular tire patching

(any nail holes or such).

Good luck

John Hays
