somebody was talking about cutting larger diameter pvc pipe into sections
and sticking those in the pond. well I want 8" diameter and they only sell
it in 20' long (120+ bucks) pieces I wonder if anyone has found shorter bits
online that dont cost more than about 6 bucks a foot? Ingrid

Well, you don't even mention what this is to be used for.. a drain? some
kind of filtering?

You can get septic pvc for pretty cheap at lowe's or home depot.

Why do you need 8"?

Hi Ron - all of your responses are still on my server, but yeah, I also
noticed the traffic seemed to be dropping off
Gale :~)
Are you still using reader.greatnowhere.com? They may be having a
problem getting or retaining the messages. Two of them were from me.
I'm going to include both of my responses below.

On the other hand, I'm also wondering if there is a problem
somewhere else in the system. The number of postings has dropped
dramatically in the past couple days. The past 3 days have had 15, 6
and 8 posts. Before that we averaged 25-35 per day. (Our high day
was 67). The past 3 days have been the lowest since we started.

Never mind. Its not necessary to email me. I thought you were
reading from greatnowhere.com, but you are using Newsguy, so there's
no way to test a theory I had.

==============================
Can I help? I have a greatnowhere.com account.

Talk to some of the local plumbers (especially commercial plumbers) and see
if they have any "ends"...
