Zero emissions, too -- take /that/ stupid Vortex gasoline-powered weed
whacker blender shaped like a blob of Prell shampoo and NOT like a gun.
Chris Parker says that he "used this on my boat this summer - - really

Which I reckon is pretty true if you expect to use your drill for anything
more than playing cops and robbers with. BTW, no, I have no idea who Chris
Parker is.
