Also, tell my younger self not to buy the lifetime subscription to the local BBS and just pay yearly, because this Internet thing is going to get faster and less buggy.
In my case, it was that our local HVAC shop literally only sold one solution. I couldn't even talk them into a more powerful A/C despite having both a grow op (at the time) and server farm in the basement.
Our A/C struggles to cool the house on room-temperature days, but that's beside the point. Heat Pumps will really take off when the small time dealers start stocking them.
Yes. I have nothing to back it up but a gut feeling, but it strikes me as something heavily influenced by media south of the border would say. You know, someone who operates under the impression Canada has a two-party system following something other than the Westminster Parliamentary system.
To be fair, sometimes a press deadline is just unreasonable. My dad was called for comment on a recent corporate acquisition. At the time, he was driving to another province to pick up my older sister who had three days' notice to head back home to fill a spot in a classroom. She was on a waiting list and their vehicle even broke down during the trip. This was during the age of car phones, but airtime was so costly, we never used ours. The newspaper made it seem like he didn't want to comment.
Sometimes life just happens at an inconvenient time.
