Some shops still have a few items left on the shelves but we're basically down to scraping the bottom on that fine product line.
Here's a few places that are still listing some Moskit items - search these to see what they have remaining:

[quoted text clipped - 15 lines] >> > why, did they make mercury resin or some sillyness? I'm not really sure - all I know is that someone at one of my club meetings said they'd been shut down for "environmental impact" reasons because of the process used to make the metal exhausts. Probably some chemical they used to remove the cores after sintering...but that's a guess.
If I were going to make these things, I'd spray or vapor deposit powdered metal onto a core - like of jeweler's investment - and then sinter them at high heat until the metal fused.
Then you plop the whole layup into water (or some chemical bath?) and the investment dissolves, leaving the hollow metal part.
...anyway, there's any number of things involved in a process like that that could send eco-pol kicking your door in.

Actually one of the things that impressed me about Stonehenge besides the size of the *rocks* that make it up, is just how small the stone circle really is. Don't know how or why, but pictures of it make it seem much bigger than it really is.
Now for really impressive (to me at least) is the ramp at Masada...

...so I got to thinking - gas to plasma though ionization...hmmnnn...heat breaks bonds, ionizes gas, energy transfers into free space...ozone hole...big ozone hole at the top of the world, feeding the plasma...and transferring energy...
...postulation? The eco-nuts are responsible for "global warming" because they meddled around to reduce the size of the ozone hole - which probably helps regulate climate by increasing in size to halt excessive warming...

I was just commenting elsewhere on how polar bear might taste, seeing as how I've had bear meat at a restaurant in Finland and found it quite tasty.

The bear I had was sort of dine up like a beef Wellington - in sort of a pastry. It was a little greasy as I recall, and fell apart...very tender. The accompanying reindeer kabobs were excellent!

If so I'm in love :) i have a 66 yr1 yamaha. it's a 350 twin and considered a pioneer crotch rocket. 5 speeds and lots of omph. i have owned an s3, h1 and h2. the first year production h2 is the scariest bike ever. you can do a quarter mile drag on the rear wheel easily. 0 to 120 in about 2 seconds. puts out over 75 horse stock and weighs about as much as an anorexic school girl. i exxagerate a little, but not much. if you pull the baffles out of each muffler, it sounds like sooperman tearing steel sheets like paper sheets. i will find pics of my yr1. i have h2 pictures but not here.

It's that green stuff that covers the ground everywhere in summer round here. Matter of fact, at the hight of Spring/Summer here, if it's not man made, or a road or building, it's green and no other color except for tree trunks, and branches on said trees and bushes.
I did notice driving cross country last summer, that after crossing the Missouri river, ya all out there do not know what a proper tree is. Big bushes and wimpy pine trees, but no Oaks, Birch, Elm, Walnut, or Maple trees. Just really big bushes...
I did learn what Big Sky country was after being in Wyoming, Montana, Idaho and the like. I did love that ! (what amateur astronomer wouldn't)
