The 8300 is still in the box (seemed too good to pass up) but the 8200 has been 
doing yeoman duty for many months downloading and transcoding video and

Just thought I’d mention this in case anyone is looking for such a machine.

Re: [MBZ] Bolt or Cruze?

[Mitch Haley via Mercedes]

I've got a set of 2016&2017 Cruzes. Both from Lordstown.
February was said to be the 2nd lowest sales month ever, the lowest being the 
month Cruze was introduced six years ago. March was better, but not great. Bolt 
sales seem to still be doing OK AFAIK.

Wow.  That's almost 9 years at 40 hr/week, 52 weeks a year.  I
know that no flying job is _that_ steady, especially in small
planes.  Amazing.

And don't fly crop dusters *smiles*  A quick look shows that in
2001, the rate was one death per 100,000 hours flown.

Re: [MBZ] OT high achievement yesterday

[Dan Penoff via Mercedes]

I used to work with a guy who was the same way.  Big guy, maybe 300 pounds but 
6’6”.  Deathly afraid of heights, wouldn’t even get on a stepladder.

We had a job to service a generator on top of a four story building in downtown 
Indianapolis one time.  The stairs came up in he middle of the building and the 
generator was right next to where the stairs came out.  I kept walking over to 
the edge of the roof and yelling at him, “Hey Don, you gotta see this - there’s 
some girl in the street flashing people!!!”

He wouldn’t go for it.

[MBZ] Refurb PCs

The 8300 is still in the box (seemed too good to pass up) but the 8200 has been 
doing yeoman duty for many months downloading and transcoding video and 
providing on-demand streaming.  I’ve been quite happy with the box.

Re: [MBZ] OT high achievement yesterday

I have found that when I go near such a climb I should always wear a Safety
Fall Harness, with a 20 ft rope staked to the ground 100 ft away from the
climb the 20 ft fall rope keeps me from making the climb and I keep
safe with both feet firmly on the ground..

Re: [MBZ] OT high achievement yesterday

[Dan Penoff via Mercedes]

I have scaled/climbed some of the tallest masts in the CONUS, and been on the 
top of many a tall building, but if I don’t have a solid surface under me I’m 
not going.  There’s a 1600’ TV transmitter mast about a mile south of me I 
climbed back in the late 90s in my former career, and whenever I drive past it 
I marvel at the fact that I did it.  That’s nearly 10 minutes going up in the 
little open man lift in the middle, than another 100’ or so climb up a ladder.

I did this one outside of Fargo back in the early 90s when I was a much 
younger//fitter man:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KVLY-TV_mast

I will say the view was spectacular.

I'm good as long as I'm on the ladder, what gets tough for me is getting on and 
off the top of the ladder.  Didn't have to do that yesterday, did all the work

I'm kind of like that too...I'm not afraid of heights as long as I can keep one 
foot on the ground.

I had a tough time of it when I worked as a steamfitter-rigger on a powerhouse 
in the Hudson Valley across the river from West Point. As a member of the "bull 
gang" I often had to climb ladders like that with a chain fall over my 
shoulders to hook up to a beam...crawling out on the beam to get it in the 
right spot. I did become somewhat desensitized, but never liked it.

My neighbors helped with the ladder, wife (instructor pilot) really was tempted 
to climb up and look around.

The first time up was a little unnerving, so I just focused on the task.

You need a pilots license to climb that.

If I take on no new projects I only need to live to 140 to finish what's in
the plans.. ;)))

If you want to live a long time, keep involved in what you love to do. ...
well, that, and pick your ancestors carefully.

My grandmother will be 99 in October, she has told us she'll reach 100, beyond 
that she has no plans.She's slipping a little these days but honestly she's 
always been a little wacky so it can be hard to tell sometimes.
