diatribe of the last week or so on this list has been, shall we say,
rather........ interesting, (except for the news about Kirk Gray, that's
plain sad). It's time for something new. <BR><BR>In this month's Model
Aviation, Joe Wagner talks about experiments he has run with a trusty old
engine. He ran baseline performance data with his regular fuel and then he
added water in his fuel to see how badly performance would be affected. His
results where very interesting. Shall we say that he made chopped meat out
of that "sacred cow".<BR><BR>He also briefly touches on what really is the
root cause of bearing rust. Even the uninitiated should find that
interesting. Could a solution to all of your OS bearing woes be this
simple?<BR><BR>There, that ought to whet your whistle.<BR><BR>Matt
