I'll reply to your email since you cover the Canadian system well in your response. In the past few years, I've had three surgeries ..... one dealing with a huge swelling on a testicle (called a hydrocoele), and then last year colon cancer (cut out a chunk of my lower large intestine) and most recently I had a full knee replacement (just 7 weeks ago). Cost to me was nothing .... not five cents. Sure, I waited for the knee replacement but went to the head of the line for the cancer (like a 3 week wait). Wife and I are both retired and pay not a whole lot of income tax anymore. Don't believe all the bad press you hear about our health care system ..... do you wait for certain procedures? Yes you do if they are not life-threatening. On the other hand, you can pay up front and get it done pretty quick if you want to spend some money on things like my knee replacement and don't want to wait. A friend of mine flew to Europe and got a partial knee replacement (they don't recommend doing that here much anymore) and he didn't want to wait. I won't shock you by telling you what he paid. You can get that stuff done through the private system up here too or down in the US or elsewhere should you choose to do so. You know the old saying, if you wanna dance you gotta pay the fiddler (or something like that).

Today's Featured Article - Earthmaster Project Progress Just a little update on my Earthmaster......it's back from the dead! I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
