On a similar subject . . . an (old) friend of mine (he was a Ranger in WW2) told me that when he came home on leave he remembered that tires were in such short supply that people put ASHES from a coal stove in the tires when they no longer could hold air . . . I can’t quite figure that one out though . . . how do you get the ashes IN? Rocketman
