Nor, does George seem to contribute anything other than his definition of
'days of autonomy' and his harping on Wayne about it. George might consider
some help since his 'days of autonomy' mantra seems to have taken over his
entire existence and pushed out any other helpful contributions.

The subject is 'workshop in an alternate homepower environment', but it has
degenerated to YAWVGM (yet-another-wayne-versus-george-match).

The OP might as well just start a new thread to ask any new questions, these
two guys will not contribute anything more to the discussion, and most of us
recognize the YAWVGM and ignore the thread from here on.


You're mostly right, but don't discount the lesson served up by
George's setup. It's a perfect example of tunnel-vision design,
decreased utility, and how to spend less in the beginning, but more in
the long run. For those considering hiring an installer, it also
demonstrates the importance of seeking out one with well-rounded
experience, as opposed to someone with what I call "contractor's"
disease. That's where a tradesman can't see the forest for the trees,
and continues to make the same assumptions and mistakes for an entire
career.
