The thread below about feeding the cows reminded me of the time I was probably as close to hyperthermia as I've ever been in my 79 years. I was in HS about 1956 or '57. We had about two rack loads of alfalfa hay yet in part of the last stack in a hay field about 1 1/2 miles North of the farm. WNAX radio station, about 65 SE of us in Yankton, SD reported -30 that morning. We figured it was colder at the farm, but the red colored mercury in all of our thermometers was clearly at the bottom of the thermometers bulb so we couldn't tell. Hooked two hay racks behind the old H with the Farmhand on it. Road gear was out, so 4th was as fast as it would go. The wore out canvas comfort cover full of holes didn't offer much protection even with engine heat headed toward you in the wind. I am sure that I've never been so close to hyperthermia as I was on that trip! But I was young & foolish then. I guess I thought I was bulletproof at the time.

Let�s examine the purpose and design of these fasteners in order to ensure their proper use. Fasteners are probably one of the aspects of mechanics that is given the least amount of thought.
