Hey Turtle.
You can spell however you like! I happen to like the way you
spell.
I also appreciate the good honest answers you have always given to
the home owners here and over on the 'other' board.
Over the many years I've been reading these groups, you far
surpass all the other professionals in helping the home owner. I'm
not saying that you any smarter than the others, I'm just saying that
you give good advice and the advice is given with a sense of caring
that doesn't come across with the others. I don't think you carry a
'red tag' in your heart or your truck. For the uninitiated,
several(most?) of the hvac people take great pleasure in shutting off
the heat to the elderly or economically disadvantaged on a cold
freezing night..
We have all seen the 'hidden camera' news shows and know what the
general character traits are of the people doing hvac repairs, so you
are a beacon of light in the dark dingy underworld of foul mouthed
dishonest repairmen.
Enough well deserved praise. Now let me give you some advice that
you can take or leave. Do you remember the phrase "Turn the other
cheek"? It doesn't apply everywhere such as when someone is
attacking your kids or spouse, but it certaintly applies to name
calling on these usenet boards.
Let me quote someone smarter than me that points out the phrase:
" The pacifist ethic to bear insults without complaint and to turn
the other cheek is related to the ethic to love one's enemy. Here the
emphasis is as much on the individual's internal attitude as it is
upon the other's welfare. If a person responds to evil in anger or
self-defense, he becomes attached to the evil and it can dominate him.
The anger and hatred of his attacker is transmuted into his own anger
and resentment at being a victim, and he loses his balance and
spiritual strength. But by bearing and accepting insults and abuse
without diminution of his own goodwill and mental concentration, he
can stay above the hatred and preserve a foundation of spiritual
independence and self-possession.
Ultimately, it is only by preserving his spiritual subjectivity in
the midst of the insults that a person can have the strength to love
his enemy and win him over. We include several striking examples:
from the Lotus Sutra of a monk who is victorious through never
disparaging his abusers, and the prophet Isaiah's servant of the Lord.
The concluding passages also deal with the justice of turning
the other cheek. They assume an inexorable principle of Divine
Justice, pp. 183-91, which will set things right and even vindicate
the victim's passivity. Paul argues that worldly retribution would
mitigate the punishment of God, hence, by not acting, the believer
will heap burning coals upon the head of his adversary. The Sutra of
Forty-two Sections likewise speaks to the demerit which will come to
the evildoer when his insult is accepted without responding. The
victim, on the other hand, gains merit through enduring persecution
and building the virtue of patience.
Let there be no injury and no requital. ....."

We have a Kitchenaid refrigerator with an ice maker in the freezer
compartment. Recently the ice maker stopped producing ice and I am
wondering if there is anything I can check to determine the problem. A
few weeks ago it did the same thing and suddenly it started working
again for some reason. I am not sure what we did to cause the change,
if anything. Now it's back to not producing again. I would appreciate
any tips you may offer on how to troubleshoot the problem.
Sometimes the filler tube gets frozen. Use hot water squirted on it to
free
it up.

In Over 90 % of the time when the filler tube freezes up, it is the water
cellinoid valve leaking that is doing this at the back bottom of the
refrigerator. Now 10% of the time it is not it.

40 years in the HVAC and R Business. You would think you would
get allot closer to solenoid. Just seeing them at the wholesale
house after forty years in the business. Just reading any kind of
literature you see the word solenoid over and over again. You would
think the word would be so ingrained in you that you would hardly miss
spell it this bad. It would be like a heart surgeon misspelling
heart.

Spelling is not my better quality. Also i type with one finger and only look at
the key board and try to proof read it after I finish. Now i like spelling words
a little different than most and have some different ways to spell stuff in my
own way.
Figure ----- Figger.
Solenoid -- Cellinoid.
Short ------ Shirt.
Now I do get a lot of my words from Blue Collar TV for my words.
Also One thing here. Do you want a spelling lesson here or do you want me to
tell you what it is. Also I'm Now a Surgeon and here is one for you to thunk
about. Albert Einstein could not add or subtract numbers 80% of the time. When
he wrote anything it was in Albert's own note writting and very few could read
it. albert was ask one morning when he got to work on the new york project .
What was 2 + 2 and Albert could not tell him for he was looking at 1,000 ways to
look at it and would not answer. I'm not Albert but i just don't care much about
being exact exact with everything.
