    Nice.

    We had a phenomenal sunset last Friday night. I had no camera handy (and of course, those moments are fleeting, especially this far north at this time of year).

    HA! What you DONT SEE is the amount of time it took me in my inexperience to realize you need to wire the outlets in sequence if running to a secondary outlet. IE I had 4 wires, 2 hot 2 neutral and had them all connected wrong lol...

    Nice massive cut in my hand right now from a flathead screwdriver that got away from me while trying to force the bend on the side nut till I found you can use the back pinholes to secure it down lol...

    So I will for sure still need that advice and will be calling eventually lol....

    Yup, have a outlet tester and the FIRST thing I did was plug it in and make sure no juice.

    I ain't SUPER smart, but that one I know lol....

    Cool :)

    The place looks considerably ritzier nowadays than it did when I was there (76 through 88 inclusive, UG, grad & postdoc!).

    Photo above was taken a few years back after the memorial symposium for the great glycobiologist (and long time Bio Dep't professor) Saul Roseman.

    Roseman was one of the mentors who made me the intensely careful & skeptical scientist that I am -- and I mean that as a great compliment to him!

    He was a heck of a scientist.

    EDIT: Assuming they're still there (and AFAIK they are), ask your (edit: oops!) youngest to say hi to Cindy & Joan from me! :)

    EPIC FAILURE!

    Did a bearing job on a 25,000 cubic feet per minute(CFM) power exhaust fan.
    To give you perspective on that number, a typical 1,700 sq. ft. house air conditioner will move between 1,400-1,600 CFM

    My elementary school called Mt. Washington in Eau Claire, WI. It has since been demolished.

    It is a shame that such a building was demolished.
    Here in New England, such structures are, at least nowadays, often rehabbed & repurposed -- typically as condos.

    As an aside, we have good friends in MA who originally hail from Eau Claire. Indeed, one of them, Mike Berg, is the woodworker who built my Duplex and TL speaker cabinets.
