[TheForge] Need Coal

[Tod Estes]

Stephen,

Phoenix Coal Sales Inc.
Vinita, OK  (The mine is actually near Oologah Lake city of New Alluwe)
(918)256-7853

I bought a ton of this coal and am burning it now, good stuff. Cokes nice
an low sulfer. The have several grades of coal there and they have a
"blacksmithing grade" The guy operating the loader can direct you to the
right pile and he will load you. My shortbed truck weighed out at a even
ton. Took me 15 min from weigh-in to weigh-out. Took the rest of afternoon
to scoop out coal and clean the truck bed out.
If you are in the Oologah area on Sat. the 11th of Feb stop in and visit
the Saltfork Craftsmen N.E. group meeting.

Time enough for sleep in the grave.

"Prometheus: I took from man expectancy of death.
Chorus: What medicine found'st thou for this
        malady?
Prometheus: I planted blind hope in the heart of
           him.
Chorus: A mighty boon thou gavest there to man.
Prometheus: Moreover, I conferred the gift of fire
Chorus: And have frail mortals now the flame-
        bright fire.
Prometheus: yes, and shall master many arts
            thereby."
