I'll second that. I've had much more happiness when my reservoir is 2qts and is only partially sealed.

It's easier to deal with respiration than to try to prevent it. Exotic materials are fine, Bill, but the better answer is to just have a large quantity of reserve coolant and use cheap tubing. This is a lot like the Prius: great idea but the cost/benefit just doesn't seem to pan out.

On the other hand, when have any of us used a cost/benefit analysis to really justify our watercooling? Hah! OK, I'll shut up now.
