[pct-l] ANWR drilling - BLOCKED!

They may be sociopaths that are attracted to the positions, but it is the voters, or lack there of that get them in the position of power in the first place. That is the true driving force.  Only 64% of the eligible voters are even registered, and of those, only 54.7 actually vote.  No wonder so many of these Sociopaths get in office.  Its our own apathy.  I would like to take a long hike myself, but I want to make sure my trail is going to be there to take that hike.  Vote the bums out, and save our beloved wilderness areas.

Hello David.  Jeff Zimmerman made the stove and I made the  windscreens.  
Can't tell you much about the stoves... have never used an  alcohol stove.  The 
windscreen works well with a quarter inch or so space  between it and the pot.  
The windscreen should be tall enough to cover a  bit of the bottom of the 
pot.  Amount is not critical.  Ideally the  windscreen fits in your pot.
