I shopped for 3 days to find what I thought was the best extension cord (every one was Made in China and from one of your last post we already know to avoid if at all possible). Bought one at a reputable shop supply store. Took it out of the cardboard wrapper, unravelled it, tossed it over to where I was going to use it....broke the plastic fantail 3 outlet end....didn't even get to plug it in. If China can't manufacture an extension cord, how the f*** are they going to build a hydroelectric dam??<br /><br />One of the things I couldn't remember was why do we not know more about Christy's Cracks that are causing the riverbank to slough off? Surely this is all figured out or this site would have never had an engineer sign off on the plan. Just show us that original signed off document (with the engineer's name) and include how it is already budgeted to get around. No one says big projects don't have big problems, but engineers are paid to make sure they are not unanticipated. Do not hide any more information.<br /><br />I hear you that it's the plan, and like you say, we will see. Even one cancelled IPP hydro contract in the meantime (and a couple of real estate money launderers thrown in the clink) would make the wait easier.motorcycleguynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20119470.post-59062767144318881442017-12-27T22:25:20.084+05:002017-12-27T22:25:20.084+05:00No almosts about it.
