This would be a good time to be able to search the archives.
I know we have been around this block many times re:
anhydrous v. 20 Mule Team. My own not that well informed
opinion is that any water in 20 Mule will be soon enuf gone
when put in the fire. Sure it foams up a little but if your material
is hot enuf the 20 Mule covers it like glass.

The way it seems to me.
