Cool... never heard about the antifreeze fill before.. good to know..

You can find mineral oil in just about any supermarket in the health section. People take it as a laxitive. Usually about $2.50 a bottle. Besides using it as the liquid in a compass it's also used as the fluid inside a liquid filled sump pump. Very high dielectric strength.

If God didn't have a purpose for us we wouldn't be here, so
Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly.
(Leave the rest to God)

Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
