The rest comes from a wellfield that recently tested positive for radioactive tritium. Watch the lecture, and decide for yourself! […]

- Freezing Food in GlassWhy talk about freezing food in glass in early spring, when not much is going on harvest-wise? Chicken, meat and fish stocks are still good foods for the season, and commercial meat is often wrapped in plastic and can be transferred into glass at home to reduce contamination. Other garden grown or purchased foods, such as grated garden zucchini, grated apple […]

Dear Sir/Madam
I am writing about the books i had asked you guys if can it is possible to simplify the method of getting them,specifically the books i was interested in were these two,JAMES ALLEN AND LILY ALLEN ILLUSTRATED BIOGRAPHY by JOHN WOOD COCK $ DIVINE COMPANION.These are the only two books i dont have to complete my JAMES ALLEN library.The problem is i use local book stores(wwww.exclusivebooks.com) to buy books that are not readily available in the market,i have tryed for the last two years hoping that they will soon be more accessible without luck.That is why i wrote that email asking if one wanted to buy from you from a far away continent could you make it easier for the stores we use to order our books.The sites u refer me to i already know their existence that is why know that the are such books.But when i order through my store they either say the book is out of print or their supplier from USA does not have it.
PLEASE HELP
