The USA manufacturing dilemma
My $1200 Frigidaire Oven has a plastic sheet over the control "push buttons" which has now unglued and is floating behind the metal frame.
This plastic sheet has the lettering for the setting for temperature, timer, etc. and covers the settings buttons. No way do I trust the "warp speed" production of vaccine batches which require precise mixture of ingredients. |

I've been in both plants and have seen the differences. Frigidaire has been a customer for about 12 years, some pharmaceutical companies much longer. They have very high standards and don't use household appliances for batching. |

Has it melted and warped over the last 13 years? Yes. Is it still functional? Yes. It front the heat coming up out the oven vent directly underneath it. https://i.postimg.cc/pXF6ZQMT/Ocen-Front.jpg > No way do I trust the "warp speed" production of vaccine batches > which require precise mixture of ingredients. Vaccines don't use a "little of this" and a "little of that" (except eye of newt). It doesn't work that way. The Frigidaire vaccine hasn't even reached Stage 2 trials yet and is at least 7 months away from any emergency approval. So what the **** is your point? That's you're not gonna vaccinated and put everybody else in your vicinity art risk? Dumbass. -sw |

Get a better stove. I have a 1950's Chambers oven, back when they made things the proper way in the USA; built to last. |

If the lawn needs to be mowed, I wet down a long-sleeved, light-colored shirt and wear it while I race around the yard at 6 mph. Cindy Hamilton |

The guitar was dirt cheap and just plays fine and dandy out of the box. How often does that happen? Never. The guitar is so easy and comfortable to play that it inspires me to play better. Guitars are like that. Sometimes they make you play better than you ought to. Guitars like that typically cost thousands of dollars, not a couple of hundred. How often does that happen? Never. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xdPzsNhFLVo |

I'd lose my mind if I had to switch back to an electric cook top. I much prefer a gas range. Electric self clean ovens use a ton of electricity, and can start a fire. Not to mention, it kills the element much faster than normal oven use. I wipe my oven quickly while still warm after using, and I've never had an issue with built up gunk or garbage; my oven is always clean. You probably wouldn't like my oven... it's match lit. |

No, I have a gas range. They've had self-cleaning gas ovens for decades. I bought my first one in 1990. > I'd lose my mind if I > had to switch back to an electric cook top.

My mom won a thousand dollars worth of furniture in 1953 or 54 and she could choose whatever she wanted. The refrigerator and a Hotpoint gas water heater were two of the things she chose. Until that refrigerator died many years later, defrosting the freezer was the one chore my dad did every single Saturday. |

Lowers temperature, removes humidity You mean you don't have a swamp cooler attached to one of your car windows, Ed...??? https://www.curbsideclassic.com/blog...-swamp-cooler/ Cold Comfort: Firestone Thermador Car Cooler (Evaporative €śSwamp Cooler€ť) BY PAUL NIEDERMEYER €“ POSTED ON JUNE 30, 2020 "Ive been hoping to find a vintage automotive €śswamp cooler€ť for quite a while, since I remember these so well from our annual trips to Colorado. And its on a 66 F-100, no less. And at an antique plane show, even. Maybe later€¦ But lets take a quickie look at the way to keep cool before air conditioning, provided you lived in the western half of the country. The technology of an evaporative cooler was certainly simple and reliable enough: A canister with a ram tube, some kind of pad of porous material, and a reservoir of about a gallon of water to keep the pad wet. The cool air was then routed into the interior. The drier the air, the better they worked, so they were particularly popular in the South West. Im not sure where the cut-off point was in their sales; Nebraska or Kansas, maybe? There were several main manufacturers, and Thermador was one of the biggest.. This one is Firestone branded, undoubtedly sold through their one-time huge chain of stores. These swamp coolers were first made in the 30s, and finally petered out in the late 60s or so, although one can still buy new ones for that typical overdone look, with every available and conceivable accessory that so many restored old cars sport... COMMENTS on the above article: nrd515 Posted July 2, 2014 at 11:52 PM If I could run a swamp cooler for free, I still wouldnt have one. I worked in a place that had one, and it was horrible. Yeah, it was cooler than outside, but it was humid as hell, and were were soaking wet with sweat almost instantly every morning when we arrived. We complained and complained, and finally the boss (Whose office had a normal A/C unit) had to work with us and out came the swamper, and back came the fans. A couple of years later, a friend of mine bought a house with a swamper on it, and within a week of moving in, he was getting estimates for real A/C. His wife was the only one who liked it. I was in it for a half hour and it was almost as bad as it was at work, and it was only 90 or so outside. I would hate to think how bad it would have been with the temp up another 10-20 degrees. Reply avatar64DartGT Posted June 30, 2020 at 3:54 PM Two thumbs up for your post, nrd515. Here in Utah there are still thousands of houses with rooftop swampers. While they do put out a certain amount of nicely cooled air, they dont cool the whole house. If you happen to be right under the thing, youll feel fine, but if you are a few rooms away or on a different floor, a swamper wont help you much. A few years ago, my sister and brother-in-law came back from church to find that the ceiling in their kitchen had collapsed, strewing wet drywall and insulation all over the place. The culprit? A leaking swamper. It was at that point that my sister insisted that they get central air€“which shed wanted for years. Swampers are also noisy and prone to breakdowns€“not fun to fix when its 100 degrees-plus outside (you have to climb up on the roof, where its even hotter). When we moved back here from the humid Midwest, we let our real estate agent know that AC was a must..." </> |

Years ago I had mister nozzles that were on a long thin hose that could be tacked onto the patio fence and connected to the garden hose. Just turn on the spigot a little bit and it did a great job of cooling down the patio. Worked quite well unless it was July or August. No fan involved. These days, when it's that hot outside I don't want to sit and get misted. It's not going to cool anything off in Southern South Carolina. I sure as heck don't want to use something like it inside. I've got central AC for a reason. Jill |

It is pretty humid here in the Niagara Peninsula and we start to melt when the temperature gets into the 80s. When I was in southern California was in the 90s and I found it quite comfortable. When we headed up towards Monterey we stopped at Soledad where it was about 111. It wasn't too bad. Only problem was when my wife leaned on the metal edge of a table and burned her arm. That humidity has a similar effect when it is cold. When it drops below freezing it is pretty raw. If I go a couple hundred miles north it gets a lot colder but the humidity us much lower, and it feels much more comfortable. |

These modern ovens with circuit boards, not so much. Also, the Chambers ovens were heavily insulated, and they can "cook with the gas off"... literally, the company designed a cook book where you can cook a roast on say, 500 degrees for a half hour, cut the gas, and it cooks on retained heat for hours afterward. When the gas is shut off, it closes a damper in the oven so heat can't escape. It has a nice deep well that can cook with the gas off as well. |
