Abraham Lincoln) and Canadian authorities<br />off the coast of Newfoundland in October, 1995. (The radio<br />conversation was released by the Chief of Naval Operations on<br />10/10/95 authorized by the Freedom of Information Act.)<br /><br />Canadians: Please divert your course 15 degrees to the South to<br />avoid collision.<br /><br />Americans: Recommend you divert your course 15 degrees to the<br />North to avoid a collision.<br /><br />Canadians: Negative. You will have to divert your course 15<br />degrees to the South to avoid a collision.<br /><br />Americans: This is the Captain of a US Navy ship. I say again,<br />divert YOUR course.<br /><br />Canadians: No, I say again, you divert YOUR course.<br /><br />Americans: THIS IS THE AIRCRAFT CARRIER USS LINCOLN, THE SECOND<br />LARGEST SHIP IN THE UNITED STATES' ATLANTIC FLEET. I DEMAND THAT YOU CHANGE YOUR COURSE 15 DEGREES<br />NORTH--I SAY AGAIN, THAT'S ONE FIVE DEGREES NORTH--OR<br />COUNTER-MEASURES WILL BE UNDERTAKEN TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF THIS SHIP.<br /><br />Canadians: This is a lighthouse.

All you got to do is make sure the box is level and the resin will level it self. Pour the bottom last and it will seal around the drain and pretty much guaranteed no leaks so long as eash side overlaps the previous pour just a little. About 1/8 to 3/16 thick should work just fine, and that stuff is tough enough to stand up to a lot of wear and tear.Bob from Athenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14124078025732286371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6120586935905234915.post-48126796339980786332009-11-10T21:26:08.240-06:002009-11-10T21:26:08.240-06:00poor refrigerant got evictected.
