Where are gas stations in south west Houston that have gas? Thanks. Join or Log In to answer.
From HoustonGasPrices.com: Kroger @ San Felipe & Voss. Hope that helps.

Sorry, this does not help. There are plenty of gas stations in Houston, but 70% of the city still don't have power. Unless the gas stations are running a generator, they may have supplies in their tanks, but can't pump it. Thanks for your effort anyway.

Thanks for the KUHF link. I'll monitor that page tomorrow morning. Chevron on Beechnut @ 59 is close to where I am, but that was called in six hours ago.
Thanks again for your help.

What kind of plastic are credit cards made of? PVC? Thanks, Mosio! Join or Log In to answer.
Polypropylene and Vinyl? That's a plastic blend, the same stuff that your Credit Card is made out of. -from a luggage tag website
-ventura726 (53Q / 44A) Fri Aug 8, 2008 2:44pm


Mostly polyvinyl chloride acetate (PVCA) (and then magnetic tape, etc), but that's the plastic part.

Thanks guys. I had the same question on Yahoo! Answers for five hours, no answer. You answer here in minutes, and guess what? Someone at Yahoo! steals your answer. Scumbags ;)

Errr...that was me. I was helping to search for this, then saw the answer so I posted it there, wanted to give Mosio some credit. =)

Oh, sorry to have you called a scumbag then. Thank you for being fast and even going the extra mile, kripsonvb!

Hi Mosio! Is a consulate considered foreign soil, like an embassy is? Thanks. Join or Log In to answer.
Usually yes
-Mangangali (36Q / 6764A) Thu Jul 3, 2008 10:34am


A consulate is like a junior embassy. It's generally located in a busy tourist city, and takes care of tasks such as issuing visas. Embassies also perform this function, but have a much more significant role beyond the scope of just visas.
-modcom (41Q / 7994A) Thu Jul 3, 2008 10:42am


A country will typically have one embassy in every country, along with several consulates in different regions of that country.

My landline phone won't ring. I can make calls, receive calls if I'm psychic and know someone's calling RIGHT NOW. DSL is fine. What's wrong? Join or Log In to answer.
Have you tried a different phone? Phone company is responsible for repair if you are not receiving ringing voltage.
-modcom (41Q / 7994A) Thu Mar 13, 2008 1:15pm

Comments:
Tried three different phones, same problem. Also made sure their ringers were on ;-)
It's the phone co's problem up to the demarcation point, the NID (network interface device). After that, it's either landlord's problem or mine.

If the phone wiring inside my walls between AT&T's demarcation point and my wall socket needs to be repaired, who pays? Landlord or I, the tenant? Join or Log In to answer.
Your landlord owns the building, but as a renter it is your domain. If you wereon ATT's cable plan, ATT would have to do it for free.

Comments:
I'm not on AT&T's monthly InLine(R) program, so no free inside repairs for me (or my landlord) :(
-htowninsomniac (44Q / 64A) Thu Mar 13, 2008 1:27pm


In california since about 1998. For residential housing intended for human use. LandLord must provide at least one working phone jack.

Cost of doing business.

Hope that's true in Texas too.
