Re: Weird question: Attic fans

 

Thanks, Katherine. I was thinking along the same lines. In past years, the fans self-managed, and would turn themselves off for the winter. I found a few articles, and there doesn't seem to be any clarity around off or on.

<>?
<>?

When the first fan burned out, we did have some moisture problems in the attic, so I'm worried both about having it run 24/7/365 but also about not having it run at all. Meh. OTOH, I'm learning that there's more to winter maintenance of the fans than I had ever imagined!

Re: Anyone ever had a package go all over the US?

 

I noticed this a lot back in the day, when I would order things from Woot (before Amazon acquired it). They shipped cheap using something called ¡°SmartPost,¡± where my order would?go in a circle around FedEx hubs and then at some point be released to the local USPS.

More recently I ordered a case for my Steam Deck from dbrand last week, that started out in Mississauga, ON, then went to Depew, NY; York, PA; Glendale Heights, IL; and is now in Detroit. I think it¡¯s supposed to arrive today.

It¡¯s like a lot of people with particular skills say: Cheap, quality, on time ¡ª you can¡¯t have all three but you can usually pick two.

Re: Anyone ever had a package go all over the US?

 

It could also be bugs or "false positives" in the tracking system.? What real proof do you have that it ever visited those places?? As a software engineer with 37 years experience, I don't trust the data that much.? ?It's not impossible that a tracking ID gets duplicated or data gets mixed.

I'll second Dan's observation. There was a point in time during the pandemic when USPS was doing FedEx's "last mile delivery." (They may still be doing this.) Anyway, I likewise had packages make it to Detroit, but never make it here to A2. I've also had packages sit for a long time in one place a few hours away, but never something like Roy's experience!

Re: Anyone ever had a package go all over the US?

 

It's been better this year than during the first year or two of the pandemic. Yours looks like it was put on the wrong truck by accident. I recently got a package that also stopped in Indianapolis on its way to me. It took 5 days to make it from there to Detroit and the tracking gave contradictory info about what day it actually left Indianapolis (which might mean it was put on a truck but then returned to Indianapolis at least once before finally being sent to Detroit). An extra 5 days is nothing compared to times in 2020 and 2021 when the USPS had a few sites that were black holes where packages arrived only to sit in a trailer in their parking lot for a few months before escaping.

This is the most extreme example but I see this kind of thing periodically.

Either weather or equipment breakdowns I suppose.

The two weeks after this have both Xmas and New Year's falling on a Wednesday, and the group decided we should skip those weeks rather than pushing the meet to another day.? So, this week is the last meeting for 2024.

Thisweek, we return to Dalat Vietnamese Cuisine?in the Busch/CVS shopping center on Ann Arbor-Saline road.? The last time we were there was on 18 December 2024. Please RSVP if you know your plans so we know how many seats to save.? Menu available to peruse in advance at?You can't order Bi-Bim-Bop, but there are lots of good Vietnamese dishes.
