  • How do I get Permanent Marker, black, out of a a polyurethane finished wood surface?

    My wife was making posters, evidently the paper stock was thin enough to allow the maker to bleed through. Now one can read what she wrote on the polyurethane wood counter surface.

    I had refinished the surface last summer and am hesitant to do the project again. We have tried alcohol and bleach neither has removed the letters, although the bleach seemed to cause the letters to fade a little.

  • How will the $600.00 check for each tax payer effect the economy?

    I am concerned that the $600.00 check for taxpayer designed to stimulate the ecconomy will do little other than deflate the value of the dollar. It seems to me if the average family income is $60,000 a $1,200 rebate will simply represent a 2% increase in the rate of inflation. Will these checks actually help us out of the current resession?
