BF>> What are you doin'g with your waste?

 SH> Some people might not want to know.:-)

 SH> So far we only separate into "pure garbage" and recyclables but the
 SH> recyclable stuff does not go into methane.  Wine, beer and liquor bottles
 SH> go to the recycling depot for refund.

In a couple of years I think you will follow us.

 SH> Three hours is what my block heater is set at.

When it's about -5 I only plug it in for about 1 hour.

 SH> Very eloquent but even if I don't plug in my block heater, I never drive
 SH> off immediately after starting.  As for engine wear, we don't put on a lot

That is the second best to do, to let it bee a bit warm before driving off but the
damage is aldready done.

 SH> of miles.  My last Honda only had 110,000 km on the odometer when I traded
 SH> it in and of those kilometers I only put on 80,000 km in 10 years.

Here we say that a normal car runs between 10,000 to 15,000 km per year.
