I've got the following correction, sent to me privately; which I now post to
the group with Cindy looking over my shoulder with a silly grin on her face.
She seems to think that this sort of stuff is typical of engineers --
something about it being only a very uncreative person who can only thing of
one way to spell a word. :-)

Personal to Paul: That stuff is called ether, not either. Since you
spelled it wrong several times, I assume your dictionary is off by
one letter and you might confuse your readers. Otherwise I'm 100%
with you - great article!d
Thanks much for the correction. You caught me.
Now if we could just find an intelligent spell checker.... :-)

Thanks, Cindy - you found me out <g>
Something else not mentioned in this thread: I have an old SABB
(Norway) diesel that simply refuses to die. For cold weather starting
it has a special plug which when unscrewed allows you to insert a
"cigarette-plug" directly into the main cylinder. When compressed,
the hot air ignites this plug and brings the diesel to life -
instantly!!! Don't know why other manufacturers haven't copied that
idea? Old fisherman swear by it and say it even works with hand
cranking.
