Can we get a sticky on the closing of the Doe Run primary smelter?
Since nobody seems to read either thread type we may as well maximize our efforts and ignore two birds with one stone!
Oh, we also need a sarcasm font. I mean really, really need a sarcasm font.
Gee.......did you hear it is shutting down and lead will become unobtianium in 2014?
Lions and tigers and bears.......oh my!
Never mind..........just kidding. Where IS that font???????????

YES, now don't ask me again!
I heard it is going to cause a rimfire shortage....oh, wait...
Do you think we could get a sarcasm font embedded with lead to remind us of the good ole days?
No really.....I am being sincere, why do you ask? And BTW, I put on fresh tin foil last night! None of it matters because the debris field from the dearly departed comet ISON will destroy the earth on 12/28/13.

STOP! STOP!.... I'm dying here....
Yep. Turns out they couldn't find an EPA approved sawdust for flux. The EPA suggested wax but we all know that can't work......Doe Run is closing?

Has anyone tried good ol' ****e for flux?
If dry, it burns and there sure is an excess of it in DC these days!

That is good ole American ingenuity at its finest! Now I'm thinking if we can clone a few democraps and give them substantial dietary iron they might start deficating a usable alloy for boolit casting and because they will be clones we can have a lifetime supply for generations to come cause I'm sure their usable lifespan will be shortened by the supplements.Has anyone tried good ol' ****e for flux?

There shouldn't be too much of a shortage, the military is changing over to "green Projectiles" without any lead in them. Someone mentioned that 3 million plus lbs of lead will be back in the market soon.
