Dear Larry, You are absolutely right. Trans fat laden margerine has and will continue to kill people prematurely by the millions. Let me point out that I am not one of your American nutritionists, in fact I don't even want to talk to these people with miserable bachelor academic credentials, following guidelines set forth by their "American Dietetic Association" which is basically preaching the wisdom of big (processed) food corporations. I am a nutritional chemist and had to study for my degree for 8 years at the University of Berlin. Unlike American nutritionists I know how margerine is made and if anybody knew what they were eating they would puke. A roach is more intelligent about eating healthy. Put a blob of margerine on your windowsill and it will still be there in 2 years untouched by any insect. So if margarine was so bad for you where are your lawyers, why has nobody appologized including your American Heart Association, the American Cancer Society, The Harvard Institute etc., all advocating to eat margerine instead of butter? As a member of the Weston Price Foundation my fat hero is Dr. Mary Enig. She was the first to fight the vegetable oil/margerine industry for promoting rancid fats. You would be well advised to read what this foundation stands for, click on the link below. Fortunately Europeans have always been suspicious of junk food science spread in America. Every single modern trend is a killer: Low fat - absolut rubbish and responsible for the high degree of diabetes in your country. Fat slows the absorption of sugar into your blood. Low Sodium - Again killing millions of people prematurely and responsible for millions of people suffering from astma and high blood pressure. Sodium in balance with Potassium is the most important mineral to stabilize your blood pressure. Drink milk for Calcium - what a joke, milk will deplete your body of vital Magnesium and CAUSE osteoporosis. US milk is full of puss, eat French cheese where puss count is regulated. Pop multivitamins and rest easy when eating junk food - people on multivitamins are 10% more likely to die early vs. people who don't take multi-vitamins. Eat soy - good luck, you need it. etc. etc. By the way beer is healthy but make sure it's additive free. I lecture at community events, my theme is "Challenging politically correct nutrition". You get the picture. Here is a link that might be useful: Weston Price Foundation

cpartist- When I was younger, my parents--especially my father--worried about *everything.* I hated it. And I swore that I would be different when I grew up and had kids of my own. And true to form, I was pretty carefree in my youth. But now that I'm a parent, I find that I am more like my father every year--worse in many respects. Funny how the patterns are so engrained, isn't it? Anyway, thank you to everyone for the advice and wisdom. I sincerely appreciate it.

Most decorative applications with stained glass to include a supporting wood frame and chains. The glass and caming isn't that strong so you need to support it in total.

Your choice of remover is fine, but cover it so that you’re “working wet.” I’d still wear gloves and a mask (better safe than sorry), but if the paint and remover are gooey when you scrape, dust exposure won’t be an issue. Clean with rags and water (not a vacuum or a broom). Dispose of cleanup materials as specified in your area (hazardous). In an older house, unless you test, I think it’s best to assume lead, asbestos, etc.
