Nothing like having the heat go off on a day like today.
Thankfully the fire is blazing and the gas guy is now on the way.

I hope the problem can be fixed quickly. No heat or no power populate my nightmares about winter storms.

Suitguy is not bitter.
feels he represents the many educated and rational onlookers who believe that the hysterical denouncement of lay scepticism is both unwarranted and counter-productive
The problem, then, is that such calls do not address an opposition audience so much as they signal virtue. They talk past those who need convincing. They ignore actual facts and counterargument. And they are irreparably smug.

Re: No Heat
Here is another view
http://wattsupwiththat.com/2011/02/02/w ... n-wyoming/Arlington, WY – avg annual wind speed of 31mph, gusts above 110mph, seems like a great place for a wind turbine ….right?
Combine cold temperatures that make steel brittle along with gusty winds, and you have a Titanic recipe for disaster.

Re: No Heat
It's -16°F in Parker (SE of Denver) right now!
It is 63° here right now; it actually warmed-up while I was playing trivia last night.
It's supposed to be only 48° tomorrow and just 41° Friday though.

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

My triumph for the morning is having thawed out my frozen pipes with a hairdryer.
Lizbit thought it was very strange that I was halfway into the cabinet space beneath the kitchen sink. She kept sneaking up on my feet.

Re: No Heat
Glad you got it fixed. Don't you have the heat on? Maybe that really nice landlord of yours needs to insulate the wall abit. Or keep the door to that cabinet open a bit.silvercamaro wrote:My triumph for the morning is having thawed out my frozen pipes with a hairdryer.

Re: No Heat
The heat is on, the cabinet door was open all night, and a substantial drip was left dripping while I slept. More insulation might be nice, but I doubt there's a structure in the entire state that was built to deal with single-digit temperatures that go on for days. I exaggerate only slightly. Our high for today, with full sunshine, is projected to be around 12. We should make it back into the 30s on Saturday.christie1111 wrote:

According to a tv meteorologist, we've had only three storms this wicked in the history of the state. One, I think, was before I was born. The second was the Christmas blizzard of 2009.
I didn't get as much snow as many people, and I can see the sun. I'm not complaining.

We have had about an inch of ice but the power is on so no complaining now that the furnace was repaired.
Work is officially closed.
I made a pot of Chicken Calabrese for dinner and am planning to make a loaf of bread this afternoon.

The problem, then, is that such calls do not address an opposition audience so much as they signal virtue. They talk past those who need convincing. They ignore actual facts and counterargument. And they are irreparably smug.
