Posting in the rain...roll on summer.


As long as we don't get another Summer like last year!

Last summer was nothing, this was before either of our times and before our parents times, but, there was the years without a summer, otherwise known as the Little Ice Age, so it could be worse I'd think. Just saying...

I'm a bit bereft of where we are supposed to be now, but I expect someone will remind me ...


I'm in the winning thread, not sure where you are

Yesterday was winning for photography even with the gloomy skies and the mud I walked through. Today was sunny and I stayed home and took a winning nap. And cleaned the kitchen a bit. It looks better than it has in at least a couple years, but it's still a disaster zone.

It's good to be back amongst friends and colleagues

Morning win, more or less.

Work won't be too bad this week, and then I have a week off.

The question is, should I clean the cat boxes this morning? That's never winning, but neither is poop on the rug when I let them go too long.

In at least one other lab I'm aware of, there are several circuits with their hot wires running through a chase so the computers aren't all on the same one... but I think (not sure) all the circuits share a single neutral wire. Sometimes I'm surprised the place hasn't burned down already.

I'm sure you are aware that there are two hot wires available in antiphase, so that the load on one cancels the load on the other as far as the neutral is concerned. That's why the neutral only has to be the same gauge as each of the hot wires. More serious is extending the hot from the other phase across the room so that there is a 240v hazard (hot to hot) where there shouldn't be (I used to know the rules on that but haven't kept up with the code for the last 20 years or so).
