Page runs off screen

On many pages here, I have to scroll to the right to read all the text.

Is there a setting that will wrap the text to eliminate the need to scroll?

[mikeschn]

Many times that's my fault... If I do a screen capture, I sometimes forget to resize it to 640 width (or less)... when that happens, scrolling is required.

I'll try to do a better job keeping my stuff under 640 wide...

Just want to let you know, you guys are in big trouble, now.... I'm setting up my favorites on my laptop for my trip,,,,, and this site is at the top of the heap..

I'm off to Simsbury, CT airport... site of an annual 'fly-in', with home-built, antique airplanes....... One of the last, unfenced, local, airports in the state.... and the weather is great.

Looking for comments on good, easy to use pottie units?... between the trailer and van, I could set up a temp spot for those 'necessary, unplanned' moments..... but would like a good quality unit to start with, especially one easy to dump...

Another thing, I bought the first wood on 9/7. My tear Will be done in less than one month, of intensive labor. I do not recomment this type of building schedule... it is draining, mentally and physically. And, it was only possible because of a string of great weather, warm, not hot, and low humidity...

So, back to potties, all comments are welcome..... and thank you...

Arne,
ONE WORD!!! PETT!!!
http://www.thepett.com/

I use mine whenever we camp and it's by far the easiest way to go. Compact and easy disposal. The "wag bags" as they are called, are expensive, but if you're not going to use it all that often, they are the greatest.
I have made up my own bags now with some fancy kitty litter stuff inside and write "caution, waste" on the outside of all large freezer bags I use for the disposal bag. I don't have the "make-your-own" down to a fine art yet... but it's getting there.

Why not save the sawdust from the construction of the tear? At least for the first few trips.

I like the pett idea. Too late to order one, but will keep my eyes open... A portopottie with its tank, pump, etc., seems a bit clunky to me.... though maybe a necessity.

Being able to 'go' and 'dispose' is very appealing.

My Pett is in the mail. After seeing one along side a Camp-Inn at Spamboree 5 in Aug I ordered it from Sportsmans Guild. They seem to have the best price on that and other camping related stuff. http://www.sportsmansguide.com/cb/cb.asp?a=121819

If you are going order much, it is worth it to join their Club and 10% off. I ordered enough stuff to pay the Club fee but neglected to join then. At least I got 10% on the Pett. Someplaces you really don't want to cut corner and a comfortable seat is one of them. :wickedfart:

I like the pett, but my 5 gallon bucket does me fine and I have a lid for it.

I think Mike got this at Sears. They are not the cheapest but they dump completely and do a great job of keeping smells out.

If you make your mattress fold up you should have enough room in the tear while traveling. So much better than some of the public places.
