replies: text: I'd have thought so, too, but both OED and Websters use the hyphenated form. Elf | Talk 15:43, 4 Feb 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: "By-product" is thoroughly outmoded in modern English, so no matter what old dictionaries say, eliminate the hyphen. Common examples: coal byproducts, peanut byproducts, petroleum byproducts, soybean byproducts, byproducts of ore processing. In the latter case, the primary  ores for copper & nickel (such as in Ontario) yield byproducts of silver, gold, antimony, selenium, and so forth. The processing of uranium ores yields the byproducts of polonium, radium, protactinium, francium, etc. The reprocessing of nuclear-reactor fuel rods yields more radioisotopes as byproducts that can be easily listed.47.215.180.7 (talk) 03:22, 20 February 2018 (UTC)

replies: text: It would if it were put to some useful purpose, such as in an electrical co-generation scheme. The use of waste heat from motorcar engines to operate heaters/defrosters in vehicles would be another example. K7L (talk) 13:06, 7 September 2013 (UTC)

:I think that you are being completely ridiculous because there is such a thing as COMMON KNOWLEDGE. When the humidity gets high, and the temperature goes down, then we get rain, snow, and sleet. Furthermore, this water falls because of gravity. In the world of legal systems, such things are called "judicial notice", and they do not need to be verified by expert witnesses and evidence every time that they are mentioned.47.215.180.7 (talk) 03:43, 20 February 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: "Judicial notice is a rule in the law of evidence that allows a fact to be introduced into evidence if the truth of that fact is so notorious or well known, or so authoritatively attested, that it cannot reasonably be doubted."47.215.180.7 (talk) 03:46, 20 February 2018 (UTC)
