I’m writing about religion and have a chapter about how poor people, especially in Africa, have adopted religion as the answer to their condition: It’s all God’s will. He’s strengthening our faith in preparation for heaven…..

Your graph suggests that it’s more complex than I was suggesting.

How did you arrive at that graph? Would you permit me to use the graph in my book, and how would you like the credit to read?

Thanks.

Hello Mr Winer,
I am looking for manufacturers of a cavitation water heaters as a possible replacement for, or an augmentation of our oil-fired boilers for the purpose of reducing our oil consumption.
I am guesstimating that our current system can produce a flow somewhere around 1500 gallons per minute. I may be wrong. Our co-op is completely residential, consisting of 140 units of various sizes (studio -> 3 bed 2 bath).
