I found I like Legend best later in the day, evening the best. Through the day my taste is different. Legend is a relaxing vape.

I'm vaping some now. This is nice stuff for sure. Love the cherry tobacco flavor.

Yes Robin, as Dusty says. The original thought was to keep the thread open so that participants could catch up with info regarding the move off-forum. We all figured the ECF thread would eventually drop and fade away quietly after that happened. Silly us! Of course the interest in the juice stayed way up there. The vendor's original intention was to have a small concern, and it became a monster-sized one. So the consensus was that we close the thread. And, as the OP, I sure don't wanna be on the other end of the "No soup for you!" list. LOL

Speaking of Ahlusion (I posted this on another thread), I just completed sampling 12 different Ahlusion flavors and, sadly, there wasn't a single one I would reorder at this time. I know Ahlusion is a very popular juice and has a loyal following, but it just missed the target with me. There is a lab-like base flavor to all their juices that simply does not sit well with me. I'm not trying to knock A+ because there are many who like them. I'm just not one of them. There are three vendors I vape (I've tried a whole lot more than three), HHV, GeJ, and Quicknic. I enjoy all three with HHV making up 85% of my vape time.

Water, generally. It's most common application will be with hydronic pumps in HVAC systems for chilled an hot water.

I worked at a company that was the leading producer of sewer cleaning equipment...those truck-mounted vacuum tanks with the large hose reel on the front?? Know what I'm talking about? We designed our own pump that hooked up to a fire hydrant and served as the energy behind the jet nozzles that went down the sewer lines to scour the insides. There were two blocks on each end about a a cubic foot full of every kind of machining capability you could think of. Took approximately 36 hours of machine time for each block and God knows how many different tools. We outsourced these blocks but I was bringing it back in-house. I started the process of buying the machine tool and necessary tooling for it (a big ole 5-axis horizontal mill). I got transferred before I could finish the project. But it was fun doing that while I did. No one picked up the project after I left. I think they were afraid. :) It was daunting. You break a tap off in one of those blocks and you have 30+ hours into it and people like to hang it around your neck.

Impressive write-up Lion!!!

Well Done Mr. Lion and congratulations.

Okay, so I had a pretty cool day today. I just found out that my article I submitted on behalf of my firm got published. I thought it might since one of the writers had called me and fact checked my article/method. Anyway, it brings glory to my company and me so I like it (not particularly surprising to anyone here). So here is the link. I do not expect anyone to read it because it is long and pretty damn boring unless you happen to be really into variable speed pumps (what is sexier than that?). But here it is:

Yes Hula, I tried SC. Just not my thing. I didn't want to sample DD because of the reason you said. I'm not into cross eyes. :)

There were three I thought were just OK..Vurley, Caramel Pear Black Tea, and Smokin' Cherries. But I wouldn't reorder them. I was disappointed as I thought for certain there would be some flavors I would enjoy from them with all the hoopla over A+. Maybe I need to appreciate the personal touch, exclusivity, and how you have to squeeze the 'A' on the bottle more than I did. :)

Awww, you guys are too kind. Thanks, Excellency. Your compliment means a lot. These pumps just move water, in a redundant pump system (lead/lag equal run time) but they tend to pump for 100,000 to 90,000 hours per year, at 300-600 GPM. So if they are set and balanced this way, they use about 30% less energy. Well if you reduce that consumption, it is always part of the peak demand, so you are saving the facility hourly consumption and peak demand (which can be VERY pricey in certain rate markets).....

Never mind, I am babbling on in industry speak. It saves money and wear and tear on the pumps. It saves energy, too. Also, it makes predicting flow easy without a flow meter which can be very expensive. No more tech talk, I promise....

And many of you thought there was no topic I could speak about that would make you miss the cheerleader pics!

Lion, you and Biv both do write-ups. That's Biv's profession.

Actually, I just wrote this cause it was a thing I started doing that not many people knew about to help my customers. I don't write for a living, at least not papers. I do write lots and lots of reports so the graphs and the graphics are what I do all the time, so they came naturally. The math is also something I do almost daily.

That is one of the longest things I have ever written, other than movie write ups....

What are the top two or three markets you sell to?
