    dieseldiva's deleted post

    I thought that Terry had said that he was not going to be aligned with EO as a moderator and/or administrator and that he was not going to post any more when he took the company position with FECC. Now I could be wrong, but I do believe he said being an active member of EO and working for FECC...

    Obama Are You Kidding Me?

    I might not be all that bright but I know when I’m getting the shaft. The bailout of the financial institutions, what a farce. They took the billions of dollars, stuck it in their pockets, then came back and asked for billions more, and they got it. Freddie Mac just asked for $20 billion more...

    Comfort Pro/Proheat APU's

    I just found out that the early Comfort Pro/Proheat PC5000 series units made by Teleflex using R22 Freon have had compressor failures. The failures are due to low freon. The loss of the freon permeates out through the hoses. Because the units hold only a small amount of freon, they can't take...

    We are headed for dire times

    I believe both the Democratic and Republican parties are corrupt. They are run by Big Oil and Big Business. Neither party gives two hoots about the working man. The members of both the House and Senate are for sale to the highest bidder. This country, which I love dearly, is headed on a...

    A units and toll road allowances
