Yes, absolutely you can use that 554 phone set on your landline.

Telephony lingo may be foreign to most - but chemistry jargon would mesmerize me.

My grade 3 teacher wanted me to become a doctor. Then she bought me a Radio Shack kit. (I delivered the London Free Press before school - age 8 - she was my best customer and an instrumental influence looking back.) Electronics became my passion, with a lifetime of learning using technology. From humble beginnings, I've had a charmed life.
Probably a much more rewarding career than trying to deal with the medical system and the mountains of paperwork to get the simplest things done.

Luckily I've forgotten most of the chemical jargon and can almost talk like normal people now. :)

I'll have to find that splitter and see about getting this phone working. Another winter project to add to my list.

:peace:

The 12 row head on this JD combine made short work of the field of corn across the road. It looks like gold from afar. The yield was good but prices are low (no contact) and vomitoxin is present, so not that great of a crop.

How beautiful, I sat here thinking what a descriptive name for a mycotoxin and wondering if Regalia would work. I am very high. I always enjoyed when they'd harvest the alfalfa on my cousin's farm, especially the baling machine. I was too curious for my own good so that only happened a couple times.

They use Prosaro, Caramba or Proline during early flowering to try to prevent vomitoxin. Lots of corn is used for ethanol here, then blended with gasoline. The feed byproduct goes to pigs/cattle and the vomitoxin remains present, even after fermentation, and isn't healthy for them.

The field beside us caught fire, got dangerously close to the house, and had to call the FD. Lucky we were home at the time.

Another correlation study looking for causation funding.

Of course there are negatives to daily use of anything, including those things we see as healthy ie running etc... but what is the mechanism of action. It's nice to see they are looking at funding for actual mechanism of action research but until then I'm still running and I'm still using.
