Kudos on the foes feature.
This will make your life a lot easier.

It has a lot of features that the old software didn't. A big item is it runs with a mysql database. Hopefully there will be no more lost posts. The forum software installed automstically as it was an Ipower feature. I spent about 3 days installing the old software as it was cgi scripts and Pearl. I had to set all of the file permissions on the Unix server and I had done none of that before. I'll be playing with this for a week or so and then we can delete the posts and start it all clear.

Attached is a typical day at work.

Leonard,are you the chief?

[Leonard]

I'm not "The Chief". Just one of the lower level chief's. That is until 29 October. Then it off to the pasture for me.

This picture is 2 of my guys working the 200 foot level of one of our towers. My shop does all of the city tower work.

In my younger years, I spent a lot of time at 210 feet. Most of the equipment I worked on was at that level. I climbed up to the 50 foot level on a different tower a month ago and decided at 66 years of age, I will keep my feet on the ground from now on. I have 33 years on the Denver Fire Department as a communications technician and it was the worlds greatest job. For the last 20 years I have been in charge of the communications section and I have loved it. I'm an assistant chief and with that comes a lot of department prestige. I get to work with the highest levels of management and love being with the fire department. I have a lot of neat stories that are fun to share around a campfire at prospecting outings.

can i borrow one of those pumps and that nozzle for a week end?

[Leonard]

They test the pumps at 1200GPM and over 200psi. They would work great for a little overburden removal.

Did somebody say hydraulic mining???
