Ya know, after being on this List for as many years as I have, I've come to
the conclusion that you can put absolutely any liquid, of any viscosity, in
the dashpots. Cheap gin? No problem. DOT 5 brake fluid? I recommend it.

I'm going to try using some of that fancy Tahitian mineral water in mine,
if the temperature ever goes above freezing here in central NY.
