[AT] @$#@$#% Cub - red engine oil

[David Bruce]

Somewhere in the recesses of this tired brain (and in my college 
textbooks) is the concept of an azeotrope - a physical combination of 
two components that has properties quite different from the individual 
components and is quite hard to separate by simple distillation.
Water and ethyl alcohol form such and I'm thinking water and ethylene 
glycol (the major component in many antifreeze formulations) would do 
the same.

The various reference books that could answer are packed away but the 
answer should be somewhere on the web.
