Alcohol: What are the chief differences in the various types of non-beverage alcohol?
I like to add a little alcohol to my winter-type windshield washer fluid. Keeps the windshield ice free in really cold weather. I drive a truck which has a huge front windshield. The factory prepared winter blend washer fluid usually freezes during winter storms. Adding a pint of alcohol to a gallon of fluid helps, but that gets expensive. I'd like to purchase my alcohol in a gallon size can. There are several types available at the big box stores, but in varieties I'm unfamiliar with. Could someone tell me the difference between isopropyl and denatured alcohol. How about rubbing alcohol, wood alcohol, etc.

I've tried running the update troubleshooter, and I've changed my settings to automatically check for and install updates. No joy so far. Help!

3 AnswersChemistry1 decade agoLate 1960's/Early 1970's film "Friends"?
Where can I get information about this movie? I don't know who made it or who acted in it. Elton John recorded a soundtrack album from it, also entitled "Friends". It was about two teenaged friends who experimented a little, got pregnant, and slipped away from their parents for a time. I remember it being a nifty movie.

Often when I use the touchpad to move my cursor around, and my finger trembles a little, or if I raise my finger, then touch the pad again, I get the same result as a left mouse click. Often this occurs at inoportune times and I wind up selecting something I don't want to. Helpme, helpme, helpme!!
