T&T: Adding salt to a Lectra-san

[Ric Bergstrom]

*I used to keep the boat on the rappahanock river and was adding salt to the
lectrasan and started blowing fuses.**
*
*I called and spoke with Vic.*
*
*
*Told me to back off on the salt.*
*
*
*I did so by about half and never had a problem again.*

'A government big enough to give you everything you want, is strong enough
to take everything you have.'
~Thomas Jefferson

'Those who would give up Essential Liberty to purchase a little Temporary
Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety'
~ Benjamin Franklin

'The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt
should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and
controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest
Rome become bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on
public assistance.'
~Cicero 55 Bc

If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better
than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not
your counsel or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands of those who feed
you. May your chains set lightly upon you. May posterity forget that ye were
our countrymen.
- Samuel Adams
