Window ac units

I think i understand the code names and what you are saying. The powers that be certainly have made a mess of things. The healthcare system in this country is a train wreck. The local healthcare monopoly here in Eastern Maine is getting ragged around the edges and teetering on the edge of collapse. I was just reading that it's top three executives either quit or were fired last week. The thing is that this was a long time coming. It began fifteen years ago. Even back then ... i could already see what the eventual outcome was going to be. All those years of intensive training in chess taught me to see thirty moves ahead. The reason i abandoned the thing i loved was because it had become so heavily tainted with AI chess bots operating under on-line human accounts. Even international grandmasters were using bots to help them cheat during on line tournaments. The AI sees all possibilities and winning strategies in the blink of an eye on the chess board. We humans are simply outclassed by the computer when it comes to doing this one particular thing.

Anyhow .... i'm rambling here but i'm touching on different ideas that you might be able to relate to because of your past experiences.



The point i'm trying to make is that you have to think longer term. The effects of government policy put into practice today might not be fully realized for another five,ten,or twenty years. You can't really say that Brandon,Barry,or Mike made things better or worse for you. You can't trust anyone to make a better life for you because they all have their own personal agendas and aspirations for power.

It's always been your own personal responsibility to deal with whatever comes your way and make the best possible life for yourself that you can.

• The thing i've found with the ac & dehumidifier coils is that the steel ends are bent different ways depending on how that particular unit was made. Sometimes it's better to cut the noodles off from the outside and knock the steel end off with a hammer. Sometimes you have to cut the steel end off from the inside. You're right though T. A close cut is best. An inside cut that grabs a few layers of aluminum makes the noodles much harder to pry out.

I try to remain neutral Gil. I'll try to explain why. I work within local government with my regular day job. The morally right thing to do as a servant of the community is to leave any political leanings at the door when i walk into work in the morning. As someone who has taken the oath to support & defend ... it's best to remain non-partisan. You have to rise above all of the political bull**** both center right and center left. Most media outlets are slanted one way or another. They're running their game on you. It's the power of the press.

Another factor in the mix is foreign influence in U.S. elections. There's every good reason that you should stay out of this as well.

You know the forum guidelines here. It's best for us to self moderate and avoid the subjects of religion, sex, and politics.

Try to stay focused on the scrapping trade ... ya know ? It helps keep the peace.

If you look back on one of my recent posts ... i was saying to CD that i view economics and politics as being two completely different fields of study. Pure economics are non-partisan. That's probably an okay subject of discussion. The politics ... not so much. It's a fine line to walk.

Of course ... it's completely up to you guys. It's been years since we've had anyone running around with the mod rod. Seems like they pretty much left us to our own devices.
