You mean white powders? Like Anthrax? Or black powders can can go boom?

Bet you would prefer a liquid, like beer. 

I know what you mean, however, an international shipment of ilmenite, for instance, would be in a plastic, x-ray transparent, canister, with all kinds of customs declarations that I would really not care to go through. It sure would not go by envelope.... where do you think I live.... Russia?? Tovarish, I am shock-ed. Spasibo! 

Da, is nichivo. My yurt is your yurt.

	There's a house in British Columbia made entirely from embalming fluid bottles, I think its in Creston. Then in Boston bar a fellow made a small building from the same bottles to house a water turbine and generator used on the property. From the Boston Bar building I sold a lot of the on eBay, most were dated from the 1930's some of the threads used for the screw cap were unique. Glass which has been embedded in mortar has a perl like sheen to it, and you can not remove it.

Remember the paper and scissors game? Well here is another part.... acid eats mortar (rock)

If you can remove bottles with mortar on them, a soaking in CLR or acid solution, should work.

Have you ever met a guy, in that area, who uses or used the alias of 'sluicebox?' Tall, skinny, big nose and feet. Let me know, if he sounds familiar.

	I used a diluted HCL to dispatch the mortar, bottles still had a mother of pearl sheen on them. Kinda looked neat. Never heard of anyone with the alias alias of sluicebox, then again there's a lot of people who have dropped out of society for one reason or another. I was missing for eight years until some nice lady found me and brought me home, and that was eight years ago. Where abouts did he hang out, we tend to be loners and have our favorite spots, mine was the Okanogan and the Yukon. Gill

He used to live in the Silver Creek trailer park, South of hope, but he has been all over the Fraser valley.... last I heard, he was at Bromley (Rock), over by Princeton. He is a gold nut and metal detector guy...

He just kind of faded into the background, one day, If you do run into him, tell him Nairb, in Dawson Creek, is looking for him, if he can tear himself away from the nuggets! Tell him how I signed this post:

	I ran a scrap yard just up the Skagit Valley Rd for 6 years, picked up plenty of old hunkers from that trailer park. Pete Ryan the world famous chainsaw carver live across the road from it. I meet a fellow from Princeton a snipper who played the river, could have been the fellow your looking for, I know Bromley Rock very well.. Best Regards Gill

Snipper/sniper, whatever!

That could be him... when did you last see him? And did he give a name.... I can give you a set of 4 initials, which are unusual as most people only have 3 or even 2 sometimes.

I have not been in that area since about 1998, when I had a shared B-day party with a friend in Keremeos.

If you see him now and  then and the initials match, I can give you a snailmail address as well as email, on the email connection here. If he has not become totally antisocial, he might send me a letter.... if it is he-who-I-seek. 

Did he use Mike as a nick name??

If it aint him.... well, good try! 

I wonder how Bromley Rock got its name.... I have Bromley's in the family tree.
