siege day 18

Today I learned that the main ingredient in pvc glue is tetrahydrofuran. We've been thinking the stuff coming from the base was one of the aromatic hydrocarbons, but for all we know, it could be a whatever tetrahydofuran is. For that matter, they could just be painting with enamel paint on a large scale, and I haven't bothered to figure out what solvent goes in enamel paint.

Whatever's going on, the base isn't saying, and I haven't figured out how to word a Freedom of Information Act request yet. If we can pin down what the base is doing differently, maybe we can find out when it's going to stop.

The only upside here is that since I mostly can't go to work, I have lots of time to figure out the FOIA request.
