I am here for some very limited purposes, because some people have asked me to help in some specific cases. I am prepared to do this. I am not intending to be here much, at present. I have not yet decided whether to start using this account actively again. No, I don't want to talk about any of the foregoing, thanks, the people concerned know who they are and how to get hold of me. This is about some ongoing unresolved issues being discussed on one or more mailing lists, when that debate comes to fruition I will take a view. Guy (Help!) 12:45, 18 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Tough day

My hot water cylinder sprung a leak. So I turned off the isolation valves and they leaked. So I went tot he loft tank and that was leaking too...

So I replaced the loft tank, cylinder and incidentally the defective bath tap that I was trying to fix when all the other crap happened. The old cylinder is full of limescale, of course. I'll cut it open so the kids can have a look.

Needless to say all the soldered joints were perfect but there were a couple of minor issues of weeping from the compression joints. Always the way. So now I'm tired and sore and going to have a nice warm bath! Hurrah! Guy (Help!) 20:38, 13 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hats off to you sir! That's a pretty good load of plumbing work. I can successfully swap out a toilet, but if I undertook the project you did, the lower level of my home would be a lagoon. :-D Vassyana (talk) 07:30, 14 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, JzG … Sorry to intrude, but since you blocked 200.55.139.212 (talk · contribs), I thought you should know that 169.158.224.133 (talk · contribs) appears to be one of the IP socks for ArleArt (talk · contribs), adding the same linkspam as discussed here … Happy Editing! — The Bipolar Anon-IP Gnome (talk) 13:59, 14 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

DRC

The same way you removed my comment here [2] Why am i not allowed to remove yours? I am simply following WP:DRC. did i do something wrong by deleting it. I have read it and saw it. I thought it was angry, but i did read it WP:DRC. I did ask in the AN/I why youtube links are allowed in one sense but not in another. I've seen them even used in featured articles on wikipedia and still allowed. Well I'm not going to dwell on it. Uconnstud (talk) 22:12, 14 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

2x hoax or worse for nukeh and gewp.org

Thanks for your note on my Talk page. Within a week or so there will be experimental data on youtube, so i think i will stop making wp entries until then. People that know me might say I need checked on calculations - because I work alone. No one that knows me would ever see me as a guy that would pull a hoax on such a serious subject. I am motivated by having a three year old son, and if there is a brighter future for his generation by one of us leaving something good behind, I would be very pleased. I do admit to being semi-nuts, and I did spend 4 years looking at W=fd. I was intrigued by systems that could do work but have unrecoverable d, like a runaway kite. Propellers, on the other hand, recover distance and do work. That struck me as very special. I was working on wind and chutes and erratic motion, back and forth. I finally got tired of the low forces in wind and looked at waves.

I'd like to know what is worse than a hoax and to whom.Nukeh (talk) 01:52, 15 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I understand your concerns here, but I don't foresee a consensus to delete. Regardless of the result I was wondering if my (typically 11th-hour) comment on the AFD makes any sense to you, as an alternative to deleting. — CharlotteWebb 18:40, 15 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey... Uconnstud (talk) 18:11, 16 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Your opinion, please.

I hadn't heard of the Jeff Merkey story until just now.

Is anything going to be done about this? As it is, there's clearly enough information for an IRS investigation.

I made a proposal here. [3]

I saw that you were one of the people on Jimmy's talkpage who agreed that brushing it off as no story was ridiculous, so I thought I'd ask for your opinion.   Zenwhat (talk) 02:33, 16 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
