Well, he is from commiefornia, what did you expect him to say? It's probably a term of respect and endearment

Yes, that's why I said a reactor went down, and not a plant......

On post #145 you said....
Feed water froze.
No way 567F water is going to freeze like you said it did. That’s why I asked why you would say something like that? You threw an answer out there that is impossible, inaccurate and misleading to the readers on this post.

I’m going to go read about dampers now, at least it’s more believable. ?

But still full of idiot morons!:crazy:
Don't worry Terry you're losing hundreds by the day... They're all moving here! ? One realtor I work for said 80% of her customers are from CA and they're coming here and driving up the prices like crazy. They're offering $20k-$30K over listing. The last house I did in January she listed it for $355K and it went for $382K sold the same day as listed. Great for me as mine has tripled in the last 6 years but I'm not ready to sell just yet. But it sure is tempting with these prices.

My family has been in and around the Bay Area for over a hundred years. California is a beautiful place with great climate when it’s not burning. The flames don’t get everywhere but smoky air gets old during a bad season. Regardless you can have your tornados, your hurricanes and the 6 months of ice. I’m good.

That's why I left MA years ago. Sick of the snowstorms, ice storms, gloomy days for sometimes weeks on end and we've even had a tornado come through back in 2011 and left a 39 mile path through several towns which is pretty rare. It came within a mile of my house and that was enough for me and I high tailed it outta there! lol

Not many natural disasters here in AZ unless you count the summer heat. It's not for everyone and even I get a little sick of it by September. All I need to do is think back of the 250 feet of driveway I had to take care of every winter and that doesn't make it seem so bad here.

Sorry for you. Probably be ok if they didn't take politics and OTHER stuff with them and try and change the local envornments so much to what they left behind...but c'est la vie :dance:

I have a friend in Kerrville, she lost power for over a day. Fortunately, she has a couple portable kerosene heaters so her and her four pooches were okay.

She's always giving me the biz about Grand Junction Colorados weather (she has a trike too), so as long as she is okay, I've been rubbing my mid forties to mid fifties weather of late. I guess what goes around comes around. :blush:

And here I was just talking about how my Ranger did so well in the snow that we don't get a whole bunch of down in SE Texas...

But still it is fun to read. :D
