    Nice Podcast. Funny how even back then unions had some crazy rules.

    There was an error rendering this rich post.

    Great story. This story makes me want to thank my old employer for not supplying me with a "wheel" instead of a service vehicle. Pittsburgh to Breezewood on a bicycle in the winter, SCARY.

    @retiredguy, that would be one hilly and chilly trip. Glad you've got 4 wheels.

    Awesome knowledge as usual. I couldn't imagine carrying boiler service tools while riding a bike. Dead men were tough guys.

    Dan: you always have great stories. I miss you coming out to ST. Louis for ASHRAE - you always did great. Guess what I found a week or two ago? My "Stevie's Team" t-shirt !
