Pro Tease/ SWG CYA

[CarlD]

will they claim next that their product makes the water 'wet'????

Actually, there IS a product out there called "Water Wetter"!! It's for car and motorcycle radiators and it's supposed to improve the heat transfer to the radiator. The crazy thing is the stuff actually works! Vehicles DO run cooler. In racing, I gather you cannot run anti-freeze--in an accident or a spill it causes other accidents. So they run distilled water, and ALL of the teams add "Water Wetter" to it to improve the performance.

Thought THAT would be good for grins!

And I thought a "water wetter" was my friends 4 year old?

Great rant waste! I'm with ya man. Seems that everyone and everything is driven by the almighty $$. Since we're ranting, why can't anyone else come up with a realistic "Best Guess" chart like Ben? Several people (legitimate or not) have discussed the effects of high CYA on FC yet even the CDC states FC should be between .5 & 3 and CYA should be no higher than 100. Soooooo, FC of 3 and CYA of 100 is O.K???????
