Re: [RC] snake oil - Lori BertolucciTrust me, oil does not scare off snakes. If that was the case then why are the Kern River Oilfields so full of rattlesnakes? And believe me, there a plenty of leaks out there. Lori B. ----- Original Message ----- From: "A.

That's why in-ground fuel oil tanks are now illegal: no way to tell when they have sprung a leak, and if they do, you have to pay to have ALL the contaminated soild removed. EPA does not do this for laughs: they do it because fuel oil is TOXIC... not to mention the fact that I doubt it works to ward of snakes. ________________________________________________ Get your own "800" number Voicemail, fax, email, and a lot more http://www.ureach.com/reg/tag =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
