Thank you Claudie,
I have never felt more welcome on the internet then I feel here, The family like orientation on this forum is fantastic, and I am more then grateful I found a place and community I can call family and home. I have learned so much in a short period of time, and will continue to learn, and I have took heed to all the wisdom I could attain.

So thank you everyone,
Chris
 
I have learned a lot here too, and not just about refining PMs. I look forward to reading the new posts each day. I think there is a lot of honesty here that is very difficult to find on the internet today. The sharing, caring, and openness of the members is a rare find. The moderators do an excellent job of keeping the spammers out, and the members in line. This is a great place to learn and make some new friends, I really enjoy coming here. :|

This is where I lost it :( sorry for makeing it rain
 
It is my hunch that readers should vote ONE TIME ONLY. After all, if every reader votes every possibility, how does anyone win?

If this contest was mine, I'd delete any duplicate votes. Can't do that without the permission of cnbarr.

Should I?

Harold,
You were correct on the "only one vote per member"

Now for the contest portion, Guess on the total yield of the two test batches combined (4lbs total, 64 cpu's), the closest one without going over wins. The closest that goes over takes 2nd place. Please only guess in 10th's of a gram as that is all my scale measures and only one guess per person.

Yes, there was no difference in yield, but What I did find out is that the crushed batch finished much faster then the broken batch, so they seem to process faster being crushed then not crushed.
