    These are not a substitute for the grid and shouldn't be run 24/7.

    That's right, unless you've got some serious bank. There were 2 of us that worked in New Orleans for Norfolk Southern in the aftermath of Katrina as their maintenance guys. We had (2) 250Kw Gensets + one 125kw providing power for a kitchen, dining room, 2 doz campers, and power for reconstruction of yard tower, RR motel, etc. Each month the number one expense was power and it was by a landslide. Other expensive stuff was portable toilets, handwashing stations, on site laundry service, fresh water that was trucked in, etc.

  2. That photo looks like Crystal Meth maybe, not Mt Dew LOL. Of course if you "bath" your teeth in anything like soft drinks it can't be a good idea.

     

    Mountain Dew soda, a product of the Pepsi Company, has been deemed the culprit in creating a high incidence of severe tooth decay in children from extremely poor regions, such as Appalachia, where there is often little resources or opportunity for routine dental care.

    making money for the college at the players/fans expense

     

    Absolutely, but it's not all bad. An instate all in 4 year college degree from Alabama cost $125,000.00, so lets not feel too sorry for the players.

    Bama will lose quite a few to the NFL this year I'm sure. 

    A lot of players and coaches as it turns out. Interesting that Saban added 2 just fired NFL head coaches to his stall in the last week or so. All this turnover, all these changes, yet Alabama is preseason #1 for next year. :) The man has built an empire.

    on your other structures did you use a tensioning system in the foundation or loose rebar?

    Those systems are usually used on bridges and parking deck type applications, right? Never seen that used on a backyard garage.
