How do you know there is no asbestos?

Does Canada have a law forbidding sale of products containing asbestos?

The United States does not. Products containing asbestos are for sale in
home improvement centers today.

Re: [MBZ] OT - Network Wiring Day!

I just stripped off that popcorn crap from the ceiling in my laundry 
room yesterday.  It scrapes off easily but it is a mess and now I have 
to do some skim coating of the old joint compound that was underneath

Messy job, but the answer is to strip the ceiling and paint it. Stipple 
has sort of gone out of fashion. However, if the ceiling is rough 
stipple hides a lot of imperfections. If that is the case, strip it and 
have it resprayed with stipple. If you do the strip it should not cost a

Re: [MBZ] OT - Network Wiring Day!

[Dan Penoff via Mercedes]

As my situation was mid-session, I just picked up where we left off the next 
day and they got screwed out of a day of training. Too bad, as the latest stuff 
for new products and the like was on the last day. We always kept that open for 
specialized training unique to the customer or for product updates.

They got a nasty letter from my boss afterwards (I called him the day it 
happened and he called the service manager and bitched him out) but I didn’t 
mind as it gave me a day off to go up and hike in the mountains. I was there 
for the duration anyway, so it was nice to have some “me” time.

Re: [MBZ] OT - Network Wiring Day!

[Curt Raymond via Mercedes]

 I had that happen one time doing training at a predominantly Muslim facility 
in the US. I can't remember what the holiday was but they had booked 3 days of 
training and day 2 was some super important holiday. They all assumed I'd know 
about it. I turned up for class and the facility was locked tight. They figured 
3 days of training meant I'd stay another day. In the end I stayed but we 
charged them for 4 days of training AND a huge change fee for my flight having 
to get moved.
They were flabbergasted that I didn't know about some holiday for a religion 
I'm not a member of. A holiday which I guess is only recognized by their 
particular sect. I can't remember which one but in the aftermath they did the 
"Well I guess those guys don't recognize this one..."

Re: [MBZ] OT - Network Wiring Day!

[Dan Penoff via Mercedes]

It’s only happened to me once, thank goodness.

Fortunately, it was in my garage. I didn’t have any decking on one side of the 
folding stairs I had installed. I stepped to one (wrong) side of the stairs 
when I was above them with the intent of moving towards the house portion of 
the attic without thinking. I went completely through the ceiling with a rafter 
ending up under each arm(pit) and my torso and legs dangling.

If adrenaline hadn’t kicked in and had me pull myself up almost immediately, I 
suspect it could have been worse. And yes, my arms hurt like the dickens for 
several days after. Since it was the garage it was an easy fix.

Re: [MBZ] OT - Network Wiring Day!

[Curley McLain via Mercedes]

no.   It was quite interesting in the 70s when the LDS began buying up 
parts of Nauvoo. The RLDS already owned many of the historic sites, and 
had a visitor's center.  LDS sent individual families to buy up the 
places they were interested in, basically undercover.  I don't believe 
any of them let on that they belonged to the LDS church.   When they 
controlled what they want, they unmasked and built a huge visitors 
center.   The RLDS was not happy over this.


When I climbed the tv tower under construction, I think before 80'  up I 
could see Nauvoo.   I quit at 160 of 200' because I could see from 
Burlington to Keokuk and most points in between.   Probably now 40-50' 
would be enough to see the new temple.   When I climbed, there was no 
temple.   Apparently there was some friction between my ancestors and 
the Brigham young group somewhere between late 1844 and 1846 when a 
group came up from the Montrose encampment to expropriate certain property.
