There's a bunch of cars in the beginning of that video that appear to have landed on rocks or tree roots after being thrown by a tornado - was that after a natural disaster, or is Philly just like that?

What you have is an additional problem. And one you now have to address before you can deal with the original problem.

Frankly, a commendable level of procrastination

What is it about spray foam that makes people think it's some sort of heat resistant structural magical material?

CommieGIR posted:

Even with my worst failure, I'd never go for spray foam. It just seems to add to the work than remove or even delay.

Definitely. The penalty for it not working (having to remove and clean that ridiculous poo poo up. Holy poo poo it is tenacious - which is why Gorilla Glue is just a very low expanding form of it.) outweighs the cost of just doing it right in the first place.

The Door Frame posted:

The difference between applying "enough spray foam" and aplying "way too much spray foam" is smaller than I'd want for anything that isn't insulation

It's amazingly difficult to judge how much it will expand, and where.


Even without sound I can hear that right-side rear tire howling.

Cage posted:

Yeah, I'm reading that to the effect that he charged someone almost a $1K for a weld that I would be embarrassed to publish. And for which he will get sued when the wheel comes apart again. Did he even take the tire off to do this?

My employer bought a much smaller company a few years ago and mishandled everything, leading to the acquisitions management basically wholesale replacing the purchasing companies management. We just recently spun that acquisition back off cause their management sucked real bad.

It's an illusion that private corporations are any different than government offices, it's humans all the way down but private companies have a greater ability to hide their incompetence.

The other problem is that Hydrogen fuel cells are just another way to prop up Natural Gas, since 96% of Hydrogen is fossil fuel sourced.

So its a dumb bait and switch.
