The RAS at Home Despot has so many safety devices attached to it
that you can hardly tell it is a RAS. Trap doors, sliding
things.... I guess somehow, the industrial safety crowd thought it
was dangerous 'as is'. They then felt compelled to deal with the
morons and 'safety-ise' the bejeezus out of that RAS.

Morons? Two letters come to mind...


I'm going to tag on to my own post - because I'm ****ed. **** every
one of you that delight in describing "morons" and "pimple faced
kids" and all of the other terms that are commonly found here when
talking about the BORGS. Most of you are more full of **** than the
people you deride. I am one of those BORG people and yeah - I'm
spouting off because I've reached my limit. I see more stupid ****
posted here than I hear spoken in the store on any given day.
There's just way too much self-importance here in this group - and I
don't care what you've done in your career. I've seen a lot of very
successful people with great skills and accomplishments, who indeed
deserve recoginition, but at the same time, think too much of
themselves. This group has way too many of those.


I'd imagine that you're trepidacious around mirrors, eh, Mike?


Not at all Larry.
