Dear Tom and Ray: I am really bad at keeping up with timely oil changes on my 2005 Ford Windstar. When I do change the oil and filter, I write the date and the odometer mileage on the side of the oil filter. The last time I changed the oil, I had gone 13 months and 10,000 miles since the previous change. To make up for my lack of timeliness, I drain the oil out of the engine, pour a gallon of diesel fuel into the crankcase, start it up and let it idle for five minutes. I then shut it off, drain it again, replace the oil filter and add new oil. I have been doing this for the past 100,000 miles, and the engine still runs great, with no leaks or burning oil. Is flushing the engine like this OK, or am I eventually going to trash it? -- Paul

He asked Lozoff to come up with a proposal for teaching yoga-meditation classes in federal prisons, and within a month Lozoff was flown to Washington, D.C., to meet with the head of the Bureau of Prisons. "I can still remember," Lozoff writes in his book We're All Doing Time, "sitting at that long table with all those big-shots, and marveling that just a few years earlier, I sat around with revolutionaries arguing about how to blow up those very buildings. Life is very funny. They considered several possibilities, including gourmet peanut butter; then an acquaintance encou...
...) He discovered, for instance, that Rudolf Diesel designed his original engine to run on peanut oil,...
