    Sorry, "The Onion" is a web site. It's all fictitious stories, but come off as real news. When I read your post it made me think of them. I am not saying your article is not real news.. it just struck me as something they would do. Here is a link to the site to see what I mean: http://www.theonion.com/?ref=auto

    Hey Thanks(I think?), I was hoping ya all wouldn't notice!! I got elected to keep an eye on all you pellet stealing trouble makers. Pays not so good..... But I get to hang with the best crowd money can't buy!!!!

    imacman is still the treasurer, He just passes me a brew once in a while(if I let him drive the van). Can't drive if I'm all loopy ya know!!

    Smoke was the first to notice. I had to pay him to keep quite!!! Didn't want a fuss about it!!!!!!!!!

    I will congratulate him again as well. I feel petty in his presence, as far as knowledge goes. He is a long time burner that has tested many brands and put countless hours into pellet reviews! Glad to have you aboard Jay!!

    I have a feeling we will see a pretty big spike in membership this season. @Grizzly Adam is really making strides in getting us to come up higher in a "Search". Also, with the addition of our T-shirts and possibly some business cards :) that we can hand out and put up in places of business. We should do quite well! :thumbs:

    We just need to keep posting new threads with stove names, and any other valuable info we can think of. Instead of "Look at my new stove", the title should be "Look at my new Harman P-43" (I know, I know... I had to give the Harman lovers and ego boost ;) Hehehehe)

    We are all here for the same reason (or reasons) :)

    Jay has been the pellet man for as long as I can remember in either forum.
    We need more pellet burner members. Hail to the Pellet Pigs, Oink Oink and beyond..............

    If you do not know what the onion is,check it out always good for a laugh.A lawnmower that not only powers itself but creates fuel for other uses,total scam,got gov. subsidy written all over it,like electric cars.Now that jay is a mod guess I will get in trouble here also(unless I can bribe him with beer or an elk hunt!).

    I did a while ago/Full electronics and electrics(drive,steering,gps,etc),cutting/conveyor system for fuel,controlled burn system,pellet compressing system(takes immense pressure),and the fact that the fuel has to be dried before gassification,on top of that,grass has very low output.Unless I see more,what I see is college ed. people living off our taxes.

    Yep and what I saw said they were going somewhere(s africa?) to be tested under powerlines,as they said it would only be feasable(sic) on a large scale.Still sounds like living off taxpayers money,and free vacation!

    Canning later and then a trip to the hardware store to get some metal strap and some bolts, lock washers, nuts, and lag nuts so I can mount that garage door opener to the finished ceiling in the garage. I managed to get it all together, its gear and motor unit is now resting on the top rung of the step ladder..

    Mr jtakeman a moderator? damm there goes the all the thread derailment fun.

    And a new homepage that is ready to be linked up, not to mention the long awaited galleries, which are quickly expanding. Went to bed with a pretty good migraine last night after getting those galleries done in about a 12 hour period. But you should see a nice new tab on the navbar that opens them up in aseparate window. Today I rest ( on web design anyway).
