The quote I got for delivery and installation of 4 post was $750.

She actually died from dimethyl mercury which is far more lethal then methyl mercury which is commonly found in fish.

The last I heard the clean up of this spill was up in the mid 6 figures. http://www.cincinnati-oh.gov/cityofcincinnati/news/clean-up-nearly-complete-following-mercury-spill/

I work for a environmental and industrial service company and deal with mercury on a regular basis. As others have said the vapors are the biggest hazard and as they have also suggested contact your local authorities for help in disposing of it. Hopefully they have household hazardous waste...

New cars seem to take increasing large and often odd amounts of oil. The Cadillac SRX we had required 7.5 quarts of full synthetic. That meant buying 8 quarts at a costs of $55-65 depending on the oil. Throw in a decent filter and you're at $70+ or more.

I couldn't agree more. There are somethings I am willing to do myself and others just aren't worth my time. The perfect example is changing the oil in my wife's Toyota Sienna. At $75 with the dealer ship actually charges about the same or a little more to change the oil and rotate the tires...

The funny thing about this thread (and a lot of others) is that I was in a Sears Hardware store not more than a hour ago and every hand tool I looked at from hammers to wrenches to screwdrivers said Made in the USA. It is sad when someone can't even change a tire but I can't blame folks not...

I got around to unpacking mine yesterday and everything was there and accounted for. The finish on a few sockets could be better but for the price I won't complain.

I was in the market for a decent sized set of tools to keep in the house so my big tool box stops looking like a train wreck all the time. Now if only the 540 pc. set would be offered for 54% off.

Ah, lookeythere. I sure didn't see that thread this morning when I looked to see if had already been posted.

I was looking for a tool set with case/tool box that I could keep in the house so my tool box in the garage doesn't end up with any more missing tools. I found this and thought it was a pretty good deal and worth sharing...

Man after watching the video I realize how sad and pathetic my detailing skills are.

The moral of the story is read everything you are signing and if you can't get a copy of the rules and regulations before buying that should be a HUGE red flag. For those that say they don't like being told what you can can't do with your property, if you live in an area that has building...

Wait, you are telling me these board members get compensated for their time? Man I feel cheated having served on our town's board of zoning appeals for most of the last 10 years as a volunteer. Of course we have much much lower application fees too...$125. I honestly don't see any reason they...

That's kind of what I was thinking. The two quotes for epoxy were $5.00 and $5.50 per square foot and the quote for PAP was $5.40.
