  1. What is it, do you mean bio charcoal?. And why doesn't it break down in your archeological finds, because it's bone dry and chemically & biologically sterile!. Go have a look at any bonfire after a good downpour, it's sterile & dead. I've got a garden with 60 years worth of aga coal ash and wood ash, its certainly not your panacea solution to improve soil even with a good rotavator. By the same logic, just fill a mineshaft with wood and cap it, leave it a few million years and tadah you've got coal, it's the same carbon sequestration without the arsing around.
  2. Or just grow your tree, chop it down and fill a mine shaft. Exactly same reason why garbage dumps emit methane is it's not actually rotting down and creating much Co2. Enriching the soil can only go so far, as everything rots down eventually.
  3. I know you like being the hippy type, but even your most hard core ones understands. If you burn your pot, it doesn't magically turn into fertilizer, not does your dealer want it back as bio char to sell down the local garden centre.
  4. I think the equal sign is only usable in an actual equation as we aren't accounting for the Co2, water vapour and other stuff. As your symbol was the reversible type "≠" The reason why your out if you've finally realised your bs, it's abit like the slavery with added steps.
  5. If you want to argue dried Anaerobic Digestate, yeah that works. There's a french company trying to sell greenhouses to dry the stuff using solar, they never understood its not as sunny in the UK for drying it commercially. There is a UK smoke exempt version made by Burnwell of that burner, reviews are always a bit mixed as it's a chunky monkey at like 100k for the artic size.
  6. Woodchip -> Charcoal -> Ash It's not a reversible equation as it's pyrolysis. During which you're "good" gets heated off and combusted or vented out via the chimney.
  7. Peds, maybe you could use that gift god gave you to explain how it's "different" without drum beating some hippy nonsense. Call it whatever you want it's still charcoal or fly ash and as such is just devoid of anything and everything combustible, that's actual science!. As charcoal is done to produce a clean burning fuel. Weird how you've not advocated using the thousands of tonnes of ash from drax for your pet project of arsing around with molasses, apple juice and probably hanging around smelling of elderflower. Those few hundred thousand tonnes of woodchip I've filled holes with are more alive with worms and bugs without any pissing around.
  8. It can't be charged with micronutrients, it's just carbon maybe popped like popcorn but it's devoid of much else. Nothing wrong with woodchip, works perfectly well.
  9. Just call it charcoal, personally it just sounds like BS. As you have to burn said wood to create it, using a lot to create a tiny amount of it excluding the processing, screening etc. Maybe all that stuff from drax is now worth a fortune?.
  10. You'll need 4 if it includes devolved.
  11. You're current poster boys the only one with a personal named tax law. Anyhoo, whilst radio was a bit more recent than the airplane. They had to visit each state mostly using railways as roads were not non existent but they didn't have motorways or a proper road network until after WW2.
  12. You got what you voted for. In terms of milking the system, atleast the wallpaper wasn't from some vague in the shadows donor who's upto about 1-2 million in MP freebies, so far. The reason why the US system is the way it is, is in part a system pre air travel. That's why they would use railways for best part of a years electioneering.
  13. Well that's me out, unless I can use a false one ?.
  14. Erm, is a Dutch or German accent optional or mandatory. As my repertoire probably extends as far as the Grolsh advert accent!.
  15. Well I am a lesbian at heart 😉
  16. Do they do airline pilot ?, I fancy doing the chainsaw one on summer days and flying when it's raining
  17. Just imagine the same budget delivered by the red headed Rayner.
  18. Just checking, don't really want to reword the gunpowder treason rhyme with 42 instead.
  19. Erm, petrol. What are you Guy Fawkes!.
  20. Doubtful, I'd read up on how the founding fathers wanted to run things when it was created. I'm sure you're loving Kim Jong Starmer, I'm sure the picture of thatcher he removed was replaced by a lovely portrait of Cromwell. The new poster boy for bread and gruel.
  21. Erm, I think I missed that lesson in school. What's that sort of political system called again?
  22. If he was any more left leaning it might involve a saw right up the middle
  23. I don't venture to the dark side of the brands 😉. Sounds like the thread of the tank might be the issue, guess like all plastic it does distort over time, no doubt a new tank is a kings ransom?. Just checked, about £50 so not bad. I'd be tempted to run a knife around the outer edge of the fuel tank tip, as if you've overtightened it you may have rolled the edge.
