    Sprinter insulation

    Many years ago I used Great Stuff instead of stuffing fiberglass insulation into the gaps around my basement windows before sheetrocking. This was my first time using Great Stuff and figured the triple expanding foam had to be way better than the regular expanding foam. Maybe even 3 times...

    Hazmat question?!

    Turtle, I'm still reeling from our Thursday afternoon phone debate. Sorry about the elevated decibels from my end, but hey, it really was the airplanes overhead, being just north of O'Hare and all. Give me a few more days to digest all of this. As of now I'm still sticking with the if it's...

    Yeah, there's a reason why a company breaks the top 3 list in revenue and it ain't all marketing.

    Top 3 Expediting Companies in the US?

    If you are referring to revenue generated solely from expedite shipments and define expedite shipments as time sensitive, exclusive use shipments, my guess would be Panther, FedEx C.C. and ???

    Need advice on a 'supposed' seat belt ticket in Texas

    If you were issued a ticket then the State of Texas or whatever jurisdiction should have the original ticket with your signature. Politely request a photocopy of the original ticket. Better yet have an attorney request the photocopy.
