didn't have anything to do with it. All I did was take it out of the GH,
try to take the gas valve assembly off (all connections were rusted solid,
too) and give up. Then a friend's husband said 'let me take a look' and
after honing out the corroded pilot light and getting the new gas valve
assembly to hook up correctly it fired right up! There's something to be
said for knowing people who own every tool known to mankind, as well as
how
to use them! Now I just have to soap the connections to be sure they don't
leak and its done. Just in time, its been getting pretty cold out there.
Anyway. Life is good.

Good for you, Kath. Now I understand how you found my first e-mail, and
I've
sent you another.

OK Tom, I'm sitting here at my computer trying to figure out how Kathy
getting her heater working again (congratulations, Kathy) resulted in
you understanding how she found an e-mail that you sent.

It's complicated, due to my excessively compartmented brain and limited
understanding of computers! How deep is your snow, so far?

Steve's snow angels eh?
I was laughing at what he wrote btw, not you. Cheers Wendy

Snow? Yeah, we got that. ;-)
Our typical December is some snow fall early, it melts again and then
returns just in time for a white Christmas.
Last winter, we had some snow but it was still hitting the 40s and 50s
well into January. Lots of talk of global warming.
This year, it's mid December and we haven't had a day over 32 yet this
month. At least a foot of snow on the ground. We got another few inches
today. There is talk of maybe a big storm on Sunday.
