When I wrote this, all pages were available, but the more I accessed it, the less became available…

I ended up getting a pdf of it through the uni’s interlibrary loan when parts of it started to disappear. If google’s preview isn’t sufficient, and you can’t get it otherwise, I’ll forward it.

“Luckily, the entire text of the article is available online.”

Erm, seems the last two pages are missing, but if you know otherwise, I’d appreciate hearing about it.

It should be noted that Keebler graham crackers are less porous than most others – I recommend submerging them for 5-6 seconds.

Comment on Wiping Data (or Secure Deletion) from Linux by nexis

oh yeah… for secure deletion of everything in a hdd without screwing your warranty go with dod kill disc or active@ kill disc… dod kill disc fills the drive with the alphabet in binary and then fill with all 0’s… active@ has a few different variations but all of them affective enough… i like the dod because i have done a thorough search of every bit on a disc when im done and there is nothing but 0’s

Comment on Eating Aloe by Mark Judd

Hi David, interesting post on aloe. You may be interested to hear that you don’t have to actually eat an aloe plant (of the Barbadensis Miller variety) to get the full benefit, you can get essentially the same benefits straight from the bottle and you might like to check out the proof document at :http://www.aloeresearch.com/docs/ProofAll.pdf

This is not a blatant attempt to advertise where you can buy this from but if you would like a link to my online store then please email me and I will forward you the details.

Comment on Directions to the Bloomington Caves by davidhilton

You shouldn’t have any problems going the Ivins way, at least up to the point where both turn off toward the caves (the little triangle island), and a half mile is certainly walkable if you don’t feel confident about driving that part.

Do you think a car can make it the back way (highway 91) to the caves? or is it too rocky? please let me know
