Hi,

Does anyone know what I can use to remove anti-freeze from asphalt?

Thanks.

Bill

Water. In large quantities. antifreeze is, by design, *VERY* water
soluble. It should give you no trouble at all. If it does, perhaps add a
brush that has long, stiff bristles to the mix. Don't forget to actual
scrub with it...

Then again, one COULD just leave it for the neighborhood strays to lick
up, thus eliminating two problems at once...

Wha? Huh???? Did I say that? Gawd, I'm such a hideous person. Somebody
stop me before I ignore the rules of being PC again!

Hopefully one of your children do not emulate the strays. Monkey
see.... monkey do. ;-)

Ah, but sir, you have clearly mistaken me for someone who has, wants, or
cares even slightly about children. ANYBODY'S children.

Don't get me wrong... I positively adore the shrieking, leaking,
stinking, disruptive, obnoxious, destructive, annoying, distracting,
unmannered, sub-sentient, untrained, disrespectful, and generally
useless little things.

As long as they're *FAR* *FAR* away from me.

I figure about 15-20 miles is optimal safe spacing, but "out of my
perception at all times" will do fine. Failing that, I'll stay happy if
you keep your brat on a leash shorter than the distance separating me
and it, and either train it to maintain absolute silence unless
addressed directly, or keep it gagged.

No, I *WON'T* pretend to like your (or anyone's) offspring, and I don't
really care if that damages your (or their) fragile little ego.

Do your kids normally suck on the pavement?
