Re: Do you visit this forum with a mobile device? - 19 days ago
Quotecbelt3 iPhone 4S right now . Autocorrect is the very bane of my existence . Mobile version ? No, please. Most are too dumbed down . :agree: The biggest problem with most mobil versions that I've tried is they are locked in the vertical mode or can't be stretched. I normally go horizontal and stretch the screen. Fredby Fred_Also - Tips and Deals

Re: Money transfer-- trigger amount - 6 weeks ago
From yahoo answers. Federal law requires that all banks report any cash deposits made in excess of $10,000 in the hopes of discouraging money laundering, rather than tax evasion. I'd worry more about the FBI/FDIC instead of the IRS. When the deposit is taken by the bank, they will ask you for a photo ID, normally a state or federal ID, and write down your name, address, ID #, etc...along w/ thby Fred_Also - Tips and Deals
Re: Is Apple making a mistake? - 6 weeks ago
Quotedavemchine I think Apple's biggest problem is the accumulation of such a stockpile of money and having no apparently plan of what to do with it. I could offer many suggestions: 1) Finish the damned campus if it makes room for more developers. They clearly need more. 2) Rewrite the GUI standards book, how much could that cost? 3) Refine and expand the OSX development team. They are oby Fred_Also - Tips and Deals

Re: [Paging Appliance Pros] Gas Furnace but Electrical Question - 3 months ago
QuoteMikeF Usually, it's gas and flame go on first to get it heated, then the fan comes on to blow the heated air, then the gas and flame go out, and the fan continues blowing until it's cool. At least that's how ours works. If you have some special thermostat/fan control, it could blow periodically regardless of the heating cycle for an air circulation or cleaner or other...

Is there any electrical wire grounded to the water pipes anywhere in the house? I fixed one a couple of times on the same house & finally found a wire grounded to the cold water line by the water heater. Removed the ground wire & attached it to a driven copper ground rod and the pipes quit getting pin holes. I think it's called electrolysis. YMMV Fredby Fred_Also - Tips and Deals
