Our electricity is about 15 cents a kwh...so Kerry will need diamond
bearings in his electric meter....We have a seemingly unbreakable contract
with Canadian Hydro for some of the most expensive power in the country...
Kerry, your next vehicle should be a Morton Building...make that two Morton
Buildings... one for me... Ask Dr Deuce how important the buildings are
at the Raymond Ordnance Depot...It never did get above zero here today
..only to about 20 below tonite predicted due to the cloud cover from the
snow flurries the folks in PA , DC, and Joisy Shores are having.. RAM

Just jury rig some stuff aroud where you have to work. Throw this stuff over
it, and set up the heater. This way you don't loose any light, as with a
tent or tarp. Be sure to use a heavy gauge extension cord.

Against my preferences, I've spent the day with the toolbox under our truck
outside in -20F, I'm typing with my fists right now. The whole time I'm
thinking "How did the boys do it in Korea?" a couple minutes at a crack
holding the socket wrench is about all you can do. They must have been tough
nuts.
