Even if the man's bladder had been full, it wouldn't amount to more than about a quart of urine. Since urine is approximately 95% water, the contaminants in the urine measure out to about 0.0125 gallons by volume. Mix that in 38 million gallons of water in the reservoir, and the contaminant level comes out to less than one part per billion. The EPA allows larger levels of many other much more hazardous substances in drinking water, so why dump this reservoir?

A full-size pickup truck has an 8-foot bed and can easily accommodate 4' x 8' sheets of plywood, drywall, etc. with the tailgate closed. I have carried 30 sheets of 3/4" drywall in the bed of a half-ton Ford F-150 before. Sure, the front-end was a little light and I had to keep the speed under 35 MPH or so, but it hauled it just fine.

24 of 170 here. Some I have seen and agree with totally, especially "The Conqueror" starring John Wayne. I am a big Duke fan, but there was never any role miscast as badly as the lead role in this movie!

Phillips Screw Company introduced the Phillips ACR bits years ago with ribs on the bit similar to this. It's a nice idea to modify your regular screwdrivers if you have the means to do so.

Back in the mid 80's I rented and lived in a house in Pekin, Illinois that was owned by the parents of Dan Lloyd, who played the boy Danny Torrence in the film. His mom loved telling my wife and I that her son had starred in the movie.

@Jeff Bowen - I have fond memories of watching Earl Anthony Jr. bowl in tournaments televised on ABC. I can even hear the voice of Chris Schenkel in my head!

@Miss Cellania - I love to bowl, and used to regularly league bowl. It's no longer the inexpensive family entertainment it used to be. If the alleys had left in the scorer's tables and not spent all the money on the fancy auto-scoring equipment, it might have stayed affordable to take the family out to bowl once in a while.
