The files would get to full if it saved before you typed lol We would just be jammed packed with 0 bytes. I found this one by accident after I worded a big reply and my computer powered down for an update. I was grumpy and started clicking on things and it saved it. Art

When you want to type a reply to a thread in the "reply to this topic" such as the one I am using right now. Look in the lower left hand corner and you will see "last auto save 9:05:14 AM " the time will change but that is what is there at the bottom of mine right now. Now left click it and a explanation of what it is will pop up. If you blank out return to the thread go to the "reply to this topic" and click on the auto save it should bring it back up to the last saved point. I am using Chrome with no issues. Art

Shoot man we feed them things to the birds when they are that small in TEXAS. Art

This may help you in the future Mike at the bottom of the reply to this topic box you will see where it says last auto saved click on it. We have auto save enabled so if you reload the page it will call up from the last saved point. It usually resaves every minute or so. Art

they fish well with a look that is similar to a senco in movement. It lacks the flavor and consistence that makes sencos such an awesome lure. They also have poor hookup because of the way they are attached hook in front of the lure and if you get a hook up they can be easily thrown. Get a few packs of sencos on an unweighted hook and you will be miles ahead. Art

Wind chill is a myth made up by man to exaggerate cold weather. lol I actually can do weather both warm and cold but I try to avoid outdoors when the hair in my nose freezes when I breath. Now let it get up into 90s F plus and I am good all day long. Good luck with the cold cold cold weather. Art

I hear you I am not a fan of oil fired water heaters. I have avoided them like the plaque. The big issue is the smell of the diesel fuel and the soot. It gets all over the place and it never can be removed completely from the house. The HE water heaters are usually around twice the cost of the old style heaters but will pay for themselves fairly quickly. The only advantage the non HE has is it does not pump the surrounding air out of the room it is installed in and in most cases it is air that has already been heated by a furnace. The more often the heater runs the greater loss of heated air occurs. The newest generation of Air heaters have raised the efficiency of the heaters by drawing cold air from outside for the combustion chamber thus not sending heated air out the flue. The water heater has not been able to be designed in this manner that is cost effective. Art

There are two styles of gas heaters. One is the high efficiency which uses a power vent (a blower motor) on the top that takes surrounding air and mixes it with the exhaust from the burner to cool it down so it can be run thru PVC. The old style or non high efficiency unit has a steel vent because it can reach temperatures that would melt plastic pipes. The liner is needed if the flue is in poor shape and decaying from acids that occur as flue gasses cool.It is not a big deal to do it is just running B vent pipe thru and up to the top of the roof. You are using the flue as a chase for the pipe. Art

We have a saying down in Cajun Country. When water gets hard you have gone North to far. I get grumpy here in Virginia when it gets below 25 F and really don't like it when you feel the hairs in your nose freeze Art

While my lab was good at the cabinet noises I have a red tick coon hound that really tests the limits. I can put the dog outside eat a few jelly beans, let him back in and he will come over and look at me and then check the coffee table for his jelly bean. He has one heck of a nose for sure to watch him run the farm for scent is a pleasure to watch. Art

The drain valve is located at the bottom of the heater. There are mainly 3 types. 1 Is a draincock that has a screwdriver head on it. 2 is a draincock that has a round handle on it. 3 is a white plastic roughly 3 inch around that has a hose thread on the end of it. The third one is my guess as to the one you have. Put a garden hose on the threaded part of it and run it to a drain. By turning it counterclockwise you will be opening it go 1/2 turn past where you hear water running (Go to far and it will pop out of the heater ) thru it. Let it run till clear or 2 min. which ever comes first. Then close the valve in reverse and hope it closes and is not now full of debris. My personal guidance is if you have not been draining the heater from the start you are asking for trouble. While draining the heater will extend the life the first time the valve malfunctions due to debris you will then be paying a plumber to come out and replace the valve. I have not drained my heaters but instead replace them every 10 years so far never flooded and never fixed my own heater. Art

AVG is a program you installed for security it is the freeware version so it will continue to ask you to buy the whole program. I personally us a purchased copy of norton for my security some like it others don't. Art

Download these two programs they are freeware and run them. Malwarebytes and CCleaner. They are designed to sweep your computer manually and remove malware and clear all of the caches your computer can get a program stuck in. They will not erase anything that your computer uses to run itself. You will lose any cookies that keep you signed in on websites so you will need to reenter the name and password for this and similar sites. Art

Why is it science keeps proving some of the best tasting things our parents got to eat get taken away from us. WELL NO MORE I am going to eat lard till it kills me because it makes things taste that good. Art

My favorite was the creepy crawler maker. You poured goop into a metal mold and put it on a hotplate as you leaned over it so you could smell when it was done. You then used a cheesy clip to lift it out and dunk it in to a bowl of water. Man I still remember the smell of the goop and the burn scars on my arms. Now that was a toy. Art

Sencos and live target mouse are my go to lure to catch LM bass lures. My smallies still fall to tubes and Sencos. Art

A pressure temp relief valve( the only safety) can malfunction and become clogged with minerals. The hour it takes to generate the pressure needed to blow is done in silence you don't know when the hour started. Once the heater gets to 212 F you got steam and that is the driving force in the explosion. It is really ugly and the generated energy is very destructive. Art

BFW you are a genius I will pass this on to the computer section to keep it alive. Thank you for the answer. Art

Glad to see you are able " Dan lol. Art

Since it appears you ran out of N's here is a couple extra ones I had laying around NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNnnnnnnnnnnnn. Lol Best of the day Art

Very dry it is scorched air so the humidity is 0. The ability to evaporate is greater the further you are from 100% humidity. See when you exercise you and generate body heat which you bleed off by sweating. A person who is at 50% humidity will have a slick or small beads of sweat while the same person will have sweat all over themselves at 75% humidity. The cooling effect is the evaporation not in the actual sweating. It is possible to be in a high humidity place and have heat stroke.( overdressed in the winter). You also can have heat stroke in a dry place if your body can not cool off by evaporation. Art

Idling will cause a build up of gas in the oil but you also are running it in cold weather and if the engine does not come up to temperature it can not evaporate the gas that gets by the rings. Art

Glad to hear Cliff. If they did put a valve on the hot and the cold line as you wanted make sure the gas is off to the heater before closing both valves. The reason we don't and down here it is against code is if you close both valves and the heater tries to generate heat it will expand the water as it heats and hopefully just trips the blow off valve. If it doesn't do that you have a bomb in the basement. Bradford white is a good heater you should be fine with it for many years. Good call on the rental with such a small amount for the repair as needed costs it is worth it. One service call down here is 100.00 for the first 1/2 hour plus parts you can burn up the 240.00 in a hurry. Art

Talks like Yoda yes he does..... Art
