LONDON - An American molecular geneticist has concluded after comparing more

   That deficits cannot go on forever and that interest rates WILL rise
to attract foreign investments.The dollar fell to a new low against the
Euro,nine year low against the Swiss Franc.Congress raises the debt
limit by $800 billion.Yup,we are in fine shape.

I know there are a lot of sat radio users in this group so I thought
I'd put out an FYI about this new newsgroup. It has been in existence
less than a month so it is still propagating to the severs. It IS on
the German server.

I finally got DirectTV and an additional dish for the MH.  I was told to go
to Radio Shack to get a tripod but the one they showed me (I don't want to
mount it on the roof) seemed awfully flimsy (sp?) and semmed to me that it
would easily blow over with even a small gust of wind.

There is a reoccurring question about which air compressor works with large
motorhome tires.  If you go to www.wolfswords.com and click on the motorhome
link then on the air compressor link, you'll see a picture of a 110 volt
Sears air compressor that puts five additional pounds ...

Before I kill filtered it I found that Graphic Queen had posted 382
messages and NOT ONE was about RV/s.
She needs to get out more.

The decision has been made.  The house has a contract from the first couple
who looked at it on the first day of the ad.  Then most of the furniture
went on the first day to the first person to look at it.  I'm writing this
sitting on the floor with my laptop sitting on a suitcase.  ...

Seems like it might make an interesting alternative/augmentation for solar. Seems to be able to
provide domestic hot water and heating, too.

I live in Canada and cannot afford to buy a house. I was wondering if
there is an RV that I can live in for the whole year. I was told that
due to extreme cold it is not possible... I would like to buy a second
hand 5th wheeler so that I can travel if I have to.  Any suggestions?

Just to let you know I finally got it in the mail yesterday.  First
thing I did was check the neighborhood with no luck! (darn)   But it
will be fun to try on the road.  Plus if I am lucky who knows I might be
able to luck out and use the one I find.  If not I will use it as a

For those waiting to by a Sirius radio system for the RV, how does free
sound? Of course, you still have to pay the subscription costs but I've
never seen a better deal for a complete Sirius system. Per the web site,
the offer ends Nov 24th.

We're still in Pahrump, NV, and it's cold here. Maybe not as cold as some
places but colder than I want. Today was in the low 40's, and tonight will
be in the mid 30's. I don't want to be cold, I want to be warm and wear
shorts in December, so we're moving in the morning. We had ...

Is there any way apart from taking the awning apart to tighten the
spring on an A&E Awning approx 18 feet long?  I know it can be done but
from what I have read it can be hazardous because of the spring letting
go.  But figured I would ask anyways  maybe there was some way of ...

I ran across this site while hunting more dope on macerators.  It has
a bunch more good stuff, valuable to newbies and old hands alike. I
particularly liked the section on traveling in Mexico, which is pretty
near dead on target.
