Boiling alone won't kill everything i.e. "germs" in the spore stage.  You 
need add pressure to do that.
 
Pressure canning is similar to autoclaves being used to sterilize.

I'm new - and embarking on my first real garden this year.

Hi all,

I am new to this list.

Have read some of the messages in the archives occasionally over the months 
and found some of the posts quite interesting.  I think I originally found 
the list by googling for something.

I am from a little north of the Canadian border.  My spouse and I live on an 
acreage and have a few animals, etc. We moved to the farm once we had done 
enough work on the house to live in it.  Prior to that we lived in town.

Both of us still work full-time and likely will continue to do so for a few 
years yet.  Little by little we make progress, fencing pasture, working in a 
garden, etc.  It all has to be done, including cutting firewood for the year 
in our "spare time" apart from our jobs.


Frank

"The tests come in the wake of a Jan. 1 explosion that shattered an 8-
foot wide cement slab at Norma Fiorento's house on Route 2024."

Such well houses often have poured-concrete roofs.

Here they refer to the well house as a "manhole."
