[Alberg30] Water tank - Use cheap vodka for anti-freeze

[Neal Jackson]

If vodka isn't good enough for a good Spring snort or you want an even more
effective antifreeze, use Everclear.  That's the stuff that fraternity
houses used to put in the punch when they invited the sweet lasses from down
the road to come up and be entertained.  It's 190 proof ethyl alcohol or so.
You can usually buy it at your friendly lower-scale liquor store.

I have had good results in upstate NY with a bottle of the cheapest
vodka in the water tank. The advantage is very little cleanout effort
and no aftertaste! In upstate, NY, where it gets pretty #$%@% cold (-25F
at times), I've never had a problem. Pump all the water out first, and
be sure to pump the vodka through. I learned this from the previous
owner, Jerry Raugh, 17 years ago. He had it on lake Michigan.
