    there is no end to the lengths humans will go to create something to entertain others with.
    I swear I don't think that I am part of the same species at times.
    It completely escapes me as to why anyone would want to convert a perfectly pristine smooth surface into a turbulent wave action it is hardly big enough for any kind of serious surfing
    Never try to tell me it can't be done
    When I have to paint I use KBS products

    My thinking, too. Why would anyone attempt to climb onto the back of a horse to use it for transportation? :-)

    When I bought my first motor scooter a lambretta similar to the Sears alstate when I was 14 the only thing I could find my horse good for after that was fence line repair of the occasional rounding up of a lost calf the motor scooter didn't cost nearly as much to feed. But the horse always knew the way home when I was too tired after working all day. the scooter required me to stay awake.

    I would suspect it is to keep the water from having algae grow in it.... Look at a pool pump.... It is better for the pool to be used by people or you have to run the pool pump.
