  • i just had a new asphalt driveway put in front of my house about 10 months ago, last sep.,?

    as soon as the weather became WARM any car that is let to sit in the driveway leaves tire prints 1/4 to 1/2 inch deep...there are faint tracks left just from pulling the cars into the driveway..the "kickstand" on my bike made a hole after just a minute or two as did a close-drying rack that ways no more than 2-3 lbs even with the cloths on it.....in one are where one car has sat for an extended time[ 1-2 weeks] the asphalt has all but collapsed...I KNOW THIS IS NOT NORMAL EVEN IN HOT WEATHER: you dont see such problems in our asphalt street nor did any of my neighbors have such issues..Q QUESTION: what can be done to correct this short of spot patching? and if it is re rolled could this cause further problems..thank you...

    ps. the driveway sits in the shade a good part of the day not that that should be an issue..i know many driveways that sit in the sun all day and don't have this problem... thank you..

  • i am trying to raise money to help a few children in viet nam that have a disease called EPIDEMILYSIS BULLOSO:?

    it is a generic disease that manifests itself by leaving the children with open wounds, scabs, blisters all over their body..part of the continued treatment is bathing the child in vinegar , salt, and bleach..[ that's right..]...most viets i know do not have bath tubs...SOO ..what i would like to do is provide enough money to build a small 10ft by 10 ft room , very clean with ceramic tiles all around, a sanitary place for the child to stay...i would like A/C.. another part of their treatment is to bandage the child completely [ some children refuse this treatment because they are too hot...as you can imagine]... also in the room a little divider with a bath tub... what do you suppose this would cost.again; build a ten by ten tiled room with a bath tub and A/C.... ALSO VERY IMPORTANT...HOW much would the electric bill be for an small A/C unit to run 4-6 hrs a day?

    thanks for your input.. PLEASE CHECK OUT [GOOGLE] "EB"...EPIDEMILYSIS BULLOSO... it is a world wide disease... incurable PAINFUL and fatal..
