  • How can I send (or fwd.) saved conversations from yahoo messenger to a contact?

    I would like to send copies of some of my saved conversations in messenger to the person I had the conversation with.... either by email, or return IM. These were video conversations, but the text was saved.

    I do not see an option to send or even fwd. these conversations as there is for regular emails. This concerns a visa (immigrant, fiancee) application so would be very useful in proof of our relationship. Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thank you.

  • will epoxy ultimately cure even if you do not have the optimum 50/50 ratio?

    Will it act as polyester resins act, with less of its catalyst and just take longer. I realize they are two totally different type reactions, but this has never happened to me before, I ran out of what I guess would be part "B" so I was wondering if anyone has "experimented" either intentionally or accidentally and knows if the "less than optimum" ratio will cure over time

  • If you could only purchase a vacuum or shampoo machine, which?

    For basic home carpet maintenance would you purchase a vacuum or shampoo machine. I am leaning toward the shampoo machine. Most machines have more suction than regular vacuums, CAN be run dry, they are basically a vacuum with the ability to vacuum up water. Good machines have brushes, you wouldn't have to go out and rent it. Which would equate to faster response to spills and the tendency to actually use it more often, giving better carpet maintenance, therefore longer lasting carpets. Does this make sense to you?

  • When polishing silver, to remove tarnish?

    when polishing silver, to remove tarnish, do you actually remove a small amount of silver (silver oxide, I should say) or is tarnish something that collects on silver and the base metal is never really affected. I think the metal does oxidize and each time you polish, you are removing a small amount. Is this true?

  • Why are bicycle helmets shaped the way they are?

    The area they cover is only about 1-1/2% of your total frontal area. Motorcycles go much faster, and none of those are aerodynamically shaped. I've heard that you have to travel much faster than a bike is capable of, for the aerodynamics to be effective. For example a car has to travel in excess of 140mph for its' "wing" to have any effect. I know 1-1/2% is better than nothing, so why doesn't someone design some type of "body" air foil?

  • Why so many shades of color?

    I'm a guy, and a builder and I was wondering why women need to have SOOOO many shades of the same color? I'm not trying to be a jerk or wiseguy, it just seems that so many of these shades are so close it's almost undetectable. Is it a female thing (literally) are female eyes more able to detect these differences? I know guys could get away with a lot fewer colors. Thanks for your sincere answers!
