WHO!!!!
Thanks guys. I'm a littel old softy some times and even tear up at weddings and funerals.
And now this Awsome responce. I need a tisue. Its amazing to have this level of support from folks in most cases I've never met.
I must confess you've all tuched my heart. Thanks everyone so much.
You know in time I'll be back to stir up a debate or 2 here.
At the time of the fire there were no wind generators on the roof. They were all down for upgrades, repairs, replacement ECT.
Hope to get some new and exsiting stuff back up on the roof. However this may take a littel longer now?
DanB now that my son lives in Ft. Collins I was hoping to see him and stop by again to see you.
This will have to wait till next sommer now.
My wife just got us setup on PayPal allthough we"ve not accepted payment this way yet we're ready to give it a go.
I'll try to find a few things for the classifides soon.
The night of the fire a Portland TV station and the Local news papper were there taking pictures.
The news papper got me abit upset. The following day the papper story read "fire started from elactrical problems" a firemen was posing and pointing to my 2850 LB. RE battery as though that was the problem fire starter. It was not.
The area around the battery was untuched by the flames and looked new, just over the firemens right shoulder 6 ft away was a very black burnt wall just above a workbenc
were a charger from a cordless drill caused the hole thing.
We fuse everthing. We have too. Theres too much liability for connecting things to batteries without proper fusing at least within 18" of battery positive.
So the Newspapper made us look inept (SP?) when infact they missled there readers.
I took this as a vote of no confidence and I take that personal. After 50 years in electronics and 30 years doing car stereo it just realy bugged me they would report the story that way.
Oh sorry guys that sounded like a rant. This is no place for that now concidering all the kind words above.
Hope your all here when I get through all this crud. Your a great bunch and wouldn't want to loose any of you guys.
Thanks again.
Best regards......................Jerry
