PhxDT

i bet a deal gets done to move them to DT Phoenix in the next 10 years. Should have been there to start with.

because they don't sell out- ever. More operational costs when there are more seats. Also, a stadium feels alot better when its full.

incredible stuff. They must have their chiro on speed dial.

Here is a pic on the way.

well, sometimes things don't turn out how you'd expect it. I went towards Perlite Rd, only to find out that this was on the only road closed with the work they are doing on the 60. Instead of trying Picket Post Rd, I tried to work the back side access by driving down some rough roads. We then hiked in two miles to get to the spot, only to find our that my GPS coordinates weren't the same projections (pushing me to the wrong spot). The good news: - we found some nice pieces of common opal, and the kids loved picking up other pieces, including schist. - my 4x4 works just fine - 4 miles of hiking with my 4 and 7 year old boys. Waay better than playing on the Ipad. Thanks guys for the ideas. The boys are begging to do it again.

Thank you all for your advice. I am talking my two boys out for some rock hunting tomorrow. They are super stoked. I'll post pictures.

how do we delete the thread- haha.

i kinda like the waiting game. Its fun. Who is with me?

Not interested in getting into argument, but genuinely curious: Why Trump?

Just had something hit my credit card: AZ Wilderness. 1/2 second I was excited, then realized that was the bar I was at last night... bah.

wife just asked me why I am exciting about the draw results when my chance is less than 10%. "Just because it is elk hunting" isn't cutting it for her.

wait. you married?

I was tired of taking out my SUV that couldn't get the job done while elk hunting, so I finally got a proper truck to work: '04 F350 6.0 diesel with the off-road package. Question is now: did I just guarantee myself a tag for this year's draw or did I guarantee tag soup? Success or soup?

wow, that is impressive.

why is digging season closed? rain exposing the rocks or something like that?

brilliant stuff. thx

call 190k miles low or just right? Found out it had the full bulletproof.

ahhh, nothing yet. ughhhhhhh. I thought this was for this year, and heart pounding to check credit: Sad when nothing there. Then, noticed it was last years: Happy. Back to waiting..

any worthwhile mods for better gas performance? guessing that's a no.

Similar to Bismuth crystals. But Bismuth are square pyramidal crystals, these are triangular pyramidal. And Bismuth is multicolored, this is black. But fantastic eye for similarities. Good call. have you taken this to the material science engineering group at ASU? That is was my major and I could put you in touch with guys over there to characterize it. PM me if interested. I hope you do this. That is just crazy looking. Let us know what they say. My father in law and his father ran sluices in the Yukon for a while. I love seeing the stuff they came back with. Good luck. i ran it past my professor. He actually remembered me after 13 years. That a good or bad thing?? Confirmed: it is Bismouth. The interesting finish is either a sulfide compound, or the natural oxide of the bismouth. no way to tell unless you do some destructive testing.

Thank you all for the tips. Love this forum.

Brilliant. I'll set it up. Thx

nevermind- I just found the link. http://www.bulletproofdiesel.com/Articles.asp?ID=148

EGR work was done. It's got 190k miles, but didn't hear about the 'bulletproof' work. Anyone have a link to that so I can see and confirm? Thx guys.
