Open Question: Could anyone help me to correct the article below?!!!?

December 31st, 2009 admin No comments

I’m French and I’m dont speak English…!please help!

—————
A month later, the women had taken a decision : They would build a sort of swimming-pool to contain the sulfuric acid. They thought this could save them within these ten years but it was without counting the enormous quantity of sulfuric acid released every day. I came back and I knew very soon that was not a good idea, I told them. However, it was too late : the construction had already been started.

In fact a year later the freight was full, and overflowed. Thus they decided to release their wastes in a pond but every second some of the sulfuric acid went into the ground and so it polluted the water table. It caused a scandal because the city of Pendoria (3000 inhabitants) watered from this one : the water factory Veolia Water who is in charge of clean and distribute the water stopped. She said that she was not able to certify his water quality : the treatments to balance the pH at 7,3 was too dangerous for the population because the products usually utilized was only to raise the pH at 0,1 closed and like now the pH from this water table was at 4,5 so it was impossible to restore the pH 7,3 without jeopardize the inhabitants health and like they don’t want to be sue Veolia Water decided to stop his water production. Finally Veolia Water accepted to give the water and the inhabitants signed a paper who said that they are agree to receive acid water and they promise that they will not use water to drink: they will have to buy bottles of water.

The state of the water table could not rest like that. The factory was in a dead end: she released a time more his tailings in the river. The diabolical wheel was engaged. Then the water table had anew a pH stable: 7,3 contrary to the river. I came back to see the women in order to warm her: the women would have to do something otherwise the penalties would be very expensive and restrictives. The women were disappointed: a purification station would be too expensive and restrain the factory to close but it was the only solution.

While the factory was building a Greenpeace militant Chinese scientist who have worked during ten years about the pH, decide to meet the women. He have heard about this project because Greenpeace went to the factory in order to denounce her activities. He explained their that he found a very rare seaweed who can put up the pH. He proposed the women to stop the construction of the purification station and build 2 big swimming pool: one to grew up the seaweeds in order to put them after in the river and another to store the acid sulfuric wastes during the seaweeds grew up.

Because this project is ten times minus expensive, the women accepted.Finally all return in order. The river pH was normal and I observed a sample of water: the usual microscopic things present in a river came back. I went a last time to see the women to congratulate them.

!!!Thank you so much!!!

Open Question: why is Girlfriends mom undressing in front of me?

December 31st, 2009 admin No comments

A little while ago I came into town to visit and invited my GF mom to come to the Hotel which I had rented out for the night. Well….The next morning my girlfriend ran out to get some things and we were planning on going swimming when she got back. when she was gone her mom went into the bath room and came out in a bikini. Nothing was unusually wrong with this at all. She was wearing like a mesh sash around her waist. Ill tell you in a minute….

Anyway my girlfriend got back and we all headed to the pool as we were down there she took off the sash right in front of me and to my dis belief she was wearing a thong…..shes 56 yr old. Well anyway after that we go up to the room to change and her and my girlfriend are in the other part of the room changing while im in the bath room. Well i was done changing in there just cleaning up che called my name. As soon as I turned the corner and made eye contact she drops her top. I turned and went back into the bathroom out of respect for my girlfriend there. But she didnt even ask me anything…… But anyway her mom always beatin the bush and throwing subtle compliments out there.

Why did she expose herself? Is she trying to hint to me she wants me or competing with her daughter?

This is strange to me and bugs me. Any answers welcome
I invited her because Id thought it would be nice for them too see each other…Like I stated earlier we came into town…..Which i thought ppl would realize we dont live there
