Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] A question on rebreathers and scrubbers

Could I get and address as to where to send it, I could try to vac-pak it. 
And a price for the test would be great. I am willing to fire the kiln just 
to test it if it is no good for CO2 absorbant I can use it to white wash the 
barn...
