Screen houses in florida have screen roofs, sides...it's all screen and

concrete....flowers grew up through
them. Best to bend the bottom edge of aluminum up a tad or drill holes
through the aluminum.

The guy lost his house 4 years ago when a lightning strike set the house on fire and it burned down. Florida has a lot of lightning and back in 2011 there was a lot of lightning activity. ^_^

Don't you love it when someone jumps into an 8 year old post
and starts giving advice for solving a dead old problem? I'm
sure ol' Jack has been scouring this group ever since hoping
someone like Marvin comes along with a solution.


Oh come on, I'm never mean to them because I've also posted an answer to an old post without first checking the date of the original post. Me and a few other folks will tease each other and anyone who isn't paying attention to the dates.
I'm away from home and my big Windows machines with real newsreader software at this time and I'm stuck using Chromie, my cute little Chromebook and the only way I can access Usenet is via Google Groups. For some reason or other, very old posts show up in Google Groups and are responded to by us hapless Chrome users and Google Groupies. ^_^
