      From: charlesandmilly@gmail.com              A frequent responder here asked me about my motives for coming on here and       posting my remarks on a use net post. So, I thought I would answer that       question.              My motives are to truly offer advice to make other people safe and their       equipment work to the best or optimum of its ability. As a child, my house       caught on fire due to an electrical short circuit without electrical ground.       No one was hurt in the fire, thankfully. However, it took months to rebuild.       Remembering this (for more than 40 years now) as I was one who went       through something like this, I talk to people about proper use of appliances       to prevent fire, shock, injury, and/or other hazards (although these things       are not always talked about in my responses to these post). I am a       qualified technician and I just bring things down to a level a lot of       consumers or prosumers can use, without the use of big, unintelligible words       in most situations, following the KISS principle.       The intent of these responses is to help others, enjoy these posts, and have       the people have working, safe equipment. The intent is to do good and no       intent to cause harm. I do this on my own time.              God Bless and have a great day.              sincerely,              Charles Lucas              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
