  1. Bit more sophisticated than that. While this is for variable speed and multi cylinder ICE induction systems, the theory is the same. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/326440306_A_STUDY_ON_THE_DESIGNS_OF_THE_RESONATOR_FOR_REDUCING_RESONANCE_NOISE_OF_INTAKE_SYSTEM_IN_VEHICLE
  2. Is there any way, without violating the warrantee, to baffle the intake. Induction can be one of the noisiest parts of a pump.
  3. But still deadly. There used to be very high incidences if lung cancers down here. Mines closed and better radon control and they the dropped to almost national averages. There is still a lot of lung disease in the St. Awful region to do with the old china clay production facilities.
  4. I have often wondered about that from borehole water down here. Our background radiation is too high to have a nuclear power station apparently, though that story has been told to me for 50 years, so no idea if it is really true.
  5. one irresponsible farm worker can change that in seconds.
  6. It is a bugbear of mine as well, and has got worse since CAD became ubiquitous. I have, in the past, seen drawings with no datum points or lines.
  7. Not the 300 quid they were talking about. https://www.techradar.com/home/smart-home/first-plug-in-solar-kits-get-regulatory-green-light-in-the-uk-ahead-of-legal-lift-off-on-august-27-and-theyll-start-at-gbp699
  8. Has anyone thought of putting a UV light, or ozone generator into a harvesting system? It may not make it potable, but as they are a cheap way to sterilise water, then may help keep odor down and kill those nasty pathogens that we wash out of our bodily cracks. Don't matter now, it's raining hard.

  10. Which should also include persons that think they know better. I think it is like driving. We have rules and laws, and experience teaches us behaviour, then you get the twats that think they know better and cause mayhem all over the place. They often only do such minor damage that it is not, in their eyes a problem, occasionally though, it has long lasting effects.
  11. There is a saying that 'bad things happen when good people do nothing'. You are doing nothing, but feel entitled to criticise. To me there is a disjoint in thinking there.
  12. Real ones do it themselves.
  13. But you are not going to do it. Seems like a fear of failure.
  14. My parents looked at a house for sale, was owned by the son (Michael Telling) of one of the Vesty family. Michael had murdered his wife and dumped the body on Exmore, but kept her head in the freezer at home. House was being sold with all fixtures and fittings.
  15. Where do you get your alternative truths from?
  16. Loads in Dorset. Wytch Farm is the largest onshore oil field in Europe. 110,000 barrels a day in 1997, 50,000 B/D in 2002. It is estimated that there is 479.6 million barrels left. There is also 4.73 million tonnes of natural gas liquids and 1.42 billion cubic metres (50×109 cu ft) of natural gas. So why is this not being exploited then? it is already a production site with the infrastructure there, locals are used to it.
  17. The French copy no one.
  18. "I've searched all the parks in all the cities and found no statues of committees."
  19. Lloyds Underwriters https://www.independent.co.uk/news/business/profile-two-men-who-lost-a-billion-names-in-the-lloyd-s-syndicates-run-by-anthony-gooda-and-derek-walker-are-facing-ruin-richard-thomson-relates-a-tale-of-two-incompetents-1494224.html
  20. Yes, like Yes Minister, why we are still enjoying it now.
  21. I forget you don’t get irony.
  22. I take it you are unaware of the concept of civil war. Here is a potted history our ours. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_Civil_War
  23. Will be no harder than us leaving the EU. That was all sorted out over a cup of afternoon tea wasn't it.
  24. Don't say that, the anti-RE brigade may have to face some home truths that they spout nonsense out of their arses, or worse, do some research themselves.
