I filled 4 better bottles with water for drinking, and filled the bath tub with water for non-potable uses. Setup the propane camping stove on the covered porch, and set the NOAA portable radio. Drained the the sump pump pit prior to the storm, and secured all loose items. I thought I had everything covered and then......
Several hours later I came down stairs and the carpeting was wet. The rubber boot on the sump pump piping broke loose. Had my own little water feature coming out of the slab. I have everything tightened down and all the water swept up. Need to make a run to Home Depot tomorrow. We are expecting 5-10 inches of rain tonight and right now the wind is howling. Woo Hoo! reminds me of living in Florida.

Great pictures and commentary, I have been to Europe in the past but never to England. We are planning another trip to Germany and the Czech Republic in a couple of years, but now you have me thinking of another side trip. Thanks for the post

General Homebrew Discussion / Back to the obsession
« on: October 19, 2012, 05:58:58 PM »
Well I have been away from the forum for a long time due to family business, but I am glad to be finally back. I'm a little behind on the learning curve on all the topics, but I will use the search option to catch up.
I do have a question that I could not fine. I have two tubes of WLP 830 that have best buy dates of January 5, 2013, and November 25, 2012. That means that the newer tube is 68% viable and the older is 38%. Should I make separate starters for each tube, or should I average the viability and make one starter?
Thanks!
Bill
