This is gonna' be awesome....
"Forget pounds and ounces, I'm figuring displacement!"
If we accept that: MBG(+)FGSF(=)HBG(F1)
And we surmise that: BG(>)HBG(F1) while GSF(<)HBG(F1)
Would it hold true that: HBG(F1)(+)AM500(x)q.d.(=)1.5lbGRWT?
PB answer: It depends.

I think Bruce will make a perfect MC. I guess he'll find out when he reads this or gets here, whichever comes first! TJ said he wasn't coming, but when he heard Bruce was coming, he's a maybe.
Yesterday was busy, I didn't get home 'till 10:45 p.m., and then I was up and outta here @ 6:00 a.m. These next 7 days will fly by!
Bryan, you will be missed!

I think that after lunch we'll all sit back down and have all the speakers up in the front and take questions. I think that'd be the best way to handle them, don't you think? I think there will be a LOT of questions that don't get answered after each speaker is done, and that may be the best way to have everybody hear the answers. I'll be there will be a LOT of questions on weeds in ponds - they seem to be having a banner year up here. Bruce, Ted Lea, etc. will be thrown to the wolves.  Haven't heard from Brettski....

Coming to drink, huh?
looks like this could deteriorate into a buncha damn drunks just like the NE meetings at Sunils place.
It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

Could be! There's a pretty well stocked "package goods store" that is about 10 minutes away. The temps will be in the upper 80's to low 90's depending on what weather station you look at. I don't know how popular a campfire will be in those temps.

That's the miserable part.

That's the miserable part. "feels like" 78�F in the late A.M. and 87�F in the afternoon. Depending on what weather site you look at, there's 10% to 50% chance of rain. But, this is Indiana, and weather can change rapidly day by day.

The saying in Michigan is "Weather Happens".
It was beautiful outside earlier, but now the clouds are rolling in. Lake Michigan can change conditions pretty quick.
Early last week the humidity was terrible. To top it off, I had to spend a couple hours in one of the water filtration buildings up the road. Pretty near dripping wet and re-routing some live stuff for further safety enhancements.
Trust me, when this thing gets cranked up to make the waves, you don't want to be in the building without some really good hearing protection!

I love that saying, "If you don't like the weather wait a minute." Funny thing is just about every part of the country says the same thing.
If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.

I've been watching the weather. The reports are all over the place, but the local weather seems to be more reliable than many of the on-line ones. Just tonight they said cold front should slip thru Friday evening, 65% chance of rain Friday evening, 20% chance early Sat a.m. High in the low 80's with a low on Friday night in the 60's.
I suppose I might be splitting some firewood for the campfire Sat evening?

The stuff that I have to split normally requires hydraulics. River Birch good enough? Or do you want Oak? There's some Sycamore, Maple and some assorted other flavors too.
