        That is NOT the issue. The point is that, without driving energy, it is IMPOSSIBLE - David F Mayer - 2/27/2009 5:19:05 PM
      - I recommend that you do mix boric acid with some mineral oil. - alcaray - 2/27/2009 3:33:38 AM

        Any of the polymers mentions will hydrolyze in water at room temperature. - David F Mayer - 2/27/2009 12:11:45 AM
