In Response To: Re: about many things (Mike and Rikki)

Mike,

Don't ya dare stop posting your trip reports!!!!!!
I think I can safely speak for all on this board in saying they are most enjoyable and informative. These darn Canuck winters would seem even longer without your reports.
I feel like the participants on this board are extended family, but more that that, we share a common interest and often times common philosophies with respect to many topics.

Keep posting "brother'

: Hey ya

: Clay, is death to a filter! The stuff also acts as a growth media too well.
: There's nothing you can do but inhibit bacterial growth. I often thought
: to devise a back filter means to pumps but that would introduce
: contaminants in the clean side, and the companies would have already done
: so long time ago.

: Well, yes and no. Chemical contaminants will go through the filter without
: being trapped. Where there's industry there's stormwater and sewage
: discharge. Adding a activated carbon filter element will trap some of the
: chemicals for a brief time, you'll have to recharge the carbon media to
: remain effective. The chlorinated HCs will zip though the wet carbon with
: little or none trapped. Still, Canada has many simliar industrial
: discharge requirements as the US and Europe, and the dilutional factor
: downstream of a plant would provide for a very high degree of mixing...I'd
: worry a lot more about the virus and bacteria.

: I'm really looking forward to the write-up. Now the last thing I want to do
: is start this one-upping thing, or cause any unease or strife with others.
: If my trip reports are bothersome, I'll gladly stop posting them. I just
: did so because I thought this group liked them (recall my continual
: queries). I or Rikki send them to a group of family and friends, or to a
: group of aged and alone in homes who we've adopted via our charity work,
: and most importantly, to our extended family who are battling cancer.
