Just a quick note, while copper is great at conducting heat, It is lousy at
radiating it, while aluminum is great at radiating it, which is why its
better for cooling.... (thats why you see some computer heatsinks madewith a
copper base and aluminum fins.

Yes, you overlooked the fact that we outed you as a lying troll a scant
few days ago.

Can you reconcile the fact that you are like a dad to your one year old
brother, yet have a two year old daughter, speak of IRAs and insurance
coverage like a 40 year old, want to play Hulk Hogan in the Des Moines
area, yet claim to be 16, grounded, and in Arizona, while you post from
an Exxon account in Texas? Thanks!

Why, hello again Cal! (Note: You forgot to also call me a child
molesting devil worshipper.) However, as interesting as my personal
life may be to you, it doesn't have much to do with jeeps, so let's
try to stay on topic, shall we?

Thanks to everyone else for their input. The link was interesting.

Ya I was wondering too.

Every time this poor Joshua guy makes a post that Troll Cal Wheeler is
all over him trying to start a fight.

We don't need guys like Cal in this NG.
