    Will a metal vacuum mug beat a cooler bar with 300mL Ice?

    I guess the question is also when. If you have some food or liquid to store. If you use a low quality cooler bag with 200mL to 300mL Ice pack at what point will a Vacuum seal with no Ice beat the cooler bag? I guess at the 10 hour mark or 24 hour mark or at some very long period of time.

    Family of bus-slaying victim sues suspect, Greyhound, authorities

    IMO it would be more dangerous. Id be more concerned about getting stabbed waiting for a bus with no protection than getting stabbed on the bus. It is more so when you are on your own at a quiet bus stop you are more likely to get attacked. You have to think of the greater good.

    Keeping a gun safe at optimal temperature and humidity

    I put in the dehumidifier inside a remington thing you charge up with power up. Would you think having a fan blowing on the outside of a locked safe would have any effect on keeping the guns dry?
