But perhpaps that is antics with semantics. However, if I am not = mistaken, glue, such as yellow woodworking glue, does not "set" or = "cure" or "dry" by a chemical reaction, but rather simply the loss of water - it = truly "dries". That is indeed a chemical process, but not a chemical reaction. = Am I wrong?</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Terry Farrell</FONT></DIV> <BLOCKQUOTE dir=ltr style="PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; = BORDER-LEFT: #000000 2px solid; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px"> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial">----- Original Message ----- </DIV> <DIV style="BACKGROUND: #e4e4e4; FONT: 10pt arial; font-color: = black"><B>From:</B> <A title=joegarrett@earthlink.net = href="mailto:joegarrett@earthlink.net">Joe Garrett</A> </DIV> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial"><B>To:</B> <A = title=pianotech@ptg.org href="mailto:pianotech@ptg.org">pianotech</A> </DIV> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial"><B>Sent:</B> Saturday, October 02, = 2004 11:44 AM</DIV> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial"><B>Subject:</B> Epoxy</DIV> <DIV><BR></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Mike said: "<FONT face="Times New = Roman" size=3>DAG when dry. "</FONT></FONT></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Mike and everyone else! Please reset = your thought patterns regarding Epoxy. The damned stuff does not "DRY" it sets, (by = chemical reaction). Glue "sets" by drying.
