Fall Cleaning

in THE MAIN WALL
I was self employed in the 80's , 90,s and 2000,s ( not continuous ) I recently started throwing away old paper work . I came across stuff I had printed from the wall, area 51, Oil tech talk , fire dragon , etc. Stuff going back to the late 90,s

That is when I realized why I had become a fairly competent technician . What I learned from Dan Holohan , George Lanthier , Alan Mercurio , and all of you here on the wall. There are people who work in the trade who have never been here . I am truly grateful for everything I have learned here over the years and all the friendships. I wonder how co-workers and other tradesmen are not aware of something's ......... now I know why , they were never here ! Thanks again.

    By any chance, did you find a printout of "The Day the Wall Went Dry"? That was one of the most hilarious episodes ever!

    Was that when Dan was away and every one posted scorched air stuff ? I didn't save that but I think I remember.

    It's a good thing I wasn't here then I would've probably had a stroke.

    Single pipe 392sqft system with an EG-40 rated for 325sqft and it's silent and balanced at all times.

    If you were in the know, you would have laughed so hard your whole upper body hurt. Just ask Dave Yates :D

    I agree ... I also get on all 3 sites.... I have learned about recalls before my supplier... problems with new products and so much more yet other guys feel unless they are being paid .. at nite they do

    How about I copy and mail it to you Frank? One of these days I have to spend some time in the office...Seems I can't get out of the field with this heat wave and AC work, then right to heat work. I'm putting together a bid on a new 10,000 sqfter, in the truck yesterday. Architect is in NYC and Beruit- the mechanical spec is foreign, with foreign products and techniques for whole house radiant/hydroair/cooling...very um...challenging
