My moms toyota corolla ran far better than my nissan sentra ever did.Over the years it needed a lot less work.Right now I have a prius that dh bought without my input a year ago.All I can say is hey it's new.

My area may not be high industry,but we are close to the highways,and the geo-engineering spraying daily does not help either.Eventually we will need a decent mask just to go out and garden!

I like the barley too. I have a pearl one,and one that is flat like milled oats. I like adding the flat barley to soups.
