I&#39;m pretty sure you can shoot them if their technical gear smells bad.
New question--which is better, technical or tactical?

That's like asking if bacon or cheese is better, you need them both or you don't have a bacon cheeseburger.

Are there many small farms making it in America today? I would guess it's not the major crops like wheat and corn but rather maybe something like parsnips or lesser demand?

[Cisco Kid]

Small farm have gross sales of less than $350k making up 85 percent of all farms and 45 percent of ag acres. Was a neighbor to a small farm once. Had 6 kids. Supplemented income with a full time job with the power company and stipend for taking in foster babies until they were adopted. Town Fire Chief and towns practical joker too. Got me once with a load of manuer.

On my 30 mile bike ride from Issaquah, (a suburb of Seattle), I probably passed a dozen small farms. Probably more actually.

Dehumidifiers suck. They last maybe a year these days and cost $200-$300. An AprilAire E050 doesnt suck and will last but its like $1500.00 Worth it?

The big guys rule. For the rest its a lifestyle I guess. I once went on a quest for a mag to get some skis for the friend of said mag. Friend ran a no till farm managed via GPS with a system that treated one plant at a time with what it needed. That was 15 years back. Wonder how the farm worked out?

We have four Frigidaire fifty pint dehumidifiers that have been running for at least four years, one for nearly six. Two were Amazon returns that we got for around two hundred bucks. Used to be the Wirecutter pick, but looks like they’ve replaced it with a smart version.
