    I never did and still don't see the value in a debit card. They have nothing to offer and more to lose as in the example given above. Maybe if your not creditworthy to get a credit card? As for going to the bank to cash your paycheck, consider yourself "lucky" as many companies now hire a...

    Yeah, I saw that on the news. With all the breaches of security you hear about, nobody is safe. Be watching for fraudulent charges on a few of my cards.

    Fall/Winter Stone Searching 2019/2020

    Now that you mention it along with the blowup, I tend to agree with your latest interpretation.

    11/29/2019 hike through West Pine Plains

    I read that as 2 separate hikes on 2 different dates at 2 different starting locations. The Dec 21 hike appears to mainly explore the burned forest area while the Jan 1 hike explores the unburned forest on the East side of Red rd.

    Fall/Winter Stone Searching 2019/2020

    Appears the recent forest fire made your search a little easier. I think I have a general idea of where you're searching for Webb state park. Unless you have a reason for keeping private, would you show on an aerial map? I have nothing to offer, just curious.

    Bass River Fire Tower proposal

    I was wondering what was going on with that. Despite the protests, I think we all knew what was going to be the final outcome, shame.

    MS, thanks for the picture of the fuel pump. Based on the picture I'd say it is mounted about half way in the tank. JG, I used to enjoy, now, not at all, just lost interest, stiff joints aren't enjoyable when sitting on a stool, laying on the ground or creeper or bending over the engine. I...

    Thanks, that debunks the cooling issue shortly after a full tank unless the pump is extended down into the tank. I'm NOT picking on anybody here, just debunking internet gossip that just isn't totally correct, some mechanics are even drawn in. I used to be a motorhead in my earlier years.

    My fault for not being specific, I meant where in the fuel tank is the pump located, at the top, middle or near the bottom? These pumps rarely but do crap out, and a reason for pulling the fuel tank and if you don't do yourself is $$$. The reason I'm asking is to address the pump cooling comment.

    That idea has been around since the invent of fuel tanks. I'm not going to dispute but logic defies that idea. The pickup is maybe an inch above the bottom and is fixed, it is not floating like the fuel level sensor. Being that as fact wouldn't the contaminants still be drawn in? I suppose the...

    Actually, I did read that. I guess you can not see the card skimmer. Not likely on a name brand station but possible. I think that is more likely on small off brand independent stations. As for the quality of gas, again off brand no name stations quite possible. As for Wawa, Quickcheck and...

    Fall/Winter Stone Searching 2019/2020

    Isn't that always the case, you stop blocking the road for a few seconds and.... yet if you pulled over initially you could be there for an hour or more before somebody comes through. Odd seeing a SxS and a bike together but maybe adults in the SxS and a kid on the bike? A bike that is...

    Bob, I usually use 2 local stations, Wawa and Quickcheck. I hand the attendant the credit card, they swipe and immediately hand it back. Even when I sometimes go elsewhere it's the same, I've never had to wait for the card. I'd advise asking for the card if it's not immediately handed back...

    Oops. I put wiper fluid in coolant.

    Pennsylvanians to Be Allowed to Paint Trees Purple to Warn Trespassers

    There's always those that take advantage. I've seen the same with the signs, some signed, others not. For example, say a sign is signed and you dispute it. You contact the signer. It's your word against his, the only way to prove is to hire a surveyor, which is really the responsibility of the...

    No, but as a member of a group that has permission to use his land I'm aware of what he has done and his property.

    Road Closure

    Lodge your complaint in person with the superintendent of Wharton Rob Aurmueller. He is closing roads at his whim using his authority which he is able to do. This is not yet a State authorized closure known as MAP which is coming in the future. When implemented you will see many closed roads. As...

    Oops. I put wiper fluid in coolant.

    No, nothing will happen, rest assured. Wiper fluid is mostly water with a little alcohol for freeze protection. The amount you used is minimal. You could even fill the entire system with washer fluid, but it's not suggested as there are ingredients in antifreeze for water pump lubrication...

    Pennsylvanians to Be Allowed to Paint Trees Purple to Warn Trespassers

    Bob, Haines has already done so by having all his property surveyed and cut survey lines which he did post. There is no imaginary line, but a physical line. Most of the signs have fallen down, paint is much longer lasting. During the winter months, his full time workers are not that busy and he...
