Thanks for the idea. But, no, all appliances will convey with the sale of the home. In the past 18 months we've replaced the washer, dryer, fridge and dishwasher. Not because we wanted to but because we had no choice. 2 weeks ago, we replaced the furnace, and half the fencing (HOA spec). The...

Again, Thanks All. Yeah, move from Hell is an apt description. U-Haul has a service we ddnt now about that Kay found. We're going to pack all items not needed immediatley into PODS style containers and store them. We will have only keys. Everything we'll need to live in the rental unil the...

Sorry for your loss... 😄

They can put them to good use chasing down the jet ski jerks not following the distancing protocols for whales in the sound.

Well, I'm a guy, so....😃 (State Farm 3 in the morning reference)

Thanks guys. Should have beeen clearer. I'm looking at 30+ reels that I've accumulated over the years in addition to the 16 already bagged and sitting in storage. Buying cases that can hold various fly reels plus conventionals up to 50W, spinning to include oceanic sizes, and baitcasters in...

Oh, no, you didn't....

As we're packing for the big move east, it hit me that I have lot of reels of various makes and styles I need to pack. I've already got 2 reel cases full but those darn things are expensive. Anyone know of a useful, viable, inexpensive alternative to pack and store multiple reels at once other...

Don't forget the big Solothurn one in Sahara, which was based on the Noor Ouarzazate Solar Complex in Morocco

We already have robotic welders and assemblers in the automotive and other manufacturing sectors. The 1st robotic farms are slowly coming online. But all of it still requires a human in the loop and probably always will. Humanity will still need a sense of purpose and belonging. Where do the 2...

That's the one I've seen too. Strangely, as much time I spent in the Fort Irwin and Twentynine Palms areas I never saw the one mentioned in the article I posted

Dude you sound like my units PA in my last days of the army.....😃

Probably severe burns if it operates like that giant array in the desert. Don't think I'd want to get too close during days with lots of sun and find out the hard way. 🫨

Agreed, it is an intriguing idea. If you're on private acreage you'd probably be ok. I've read of a guy in Idaho who has had the old school, hand built, black box solar collectors on his buildings for almost 30 years and he both heats water for a forced water system and supplies his own...

I see more and more news articles about schools pulling their students away from mass use of computers, in some instances pulling them out of classrooms entirely. I'm no adherent of John Ludd, though i do prefer trailing edge technology, but this insane rush to push a digital product that...

@Flymph Interesting idea. Not sure a person could get permitting in a lot of places. Reflectivity would probably be an issue with close by neighbors and flight paths. Another version of this is the "solar oven" idea. From experience, those don't seem to work well.

Those Lame' pants need a volume knob... I like these, too And 😃

Well at least the workforce gets paid through August...

That's nice. What company?
