Yes, I talked to the building owner today about renovations. There were a few problems on move in, but I wanted to get a better feel for the building. Having this hot spell has helped me get a better feel quite literally. So I brought up basically what you said, but they wont let me touch a load-baring wall.

The answer I suggested was a vent from the floor to ceiling in the closet and install a roof hat or vent at he peak of the roof to let the heat escape. Not just for the machines, I didn’t bring it up at all. Just so when the roof is 200f, the rooms below don’t try to follow suit. As the eve vents are the only way out for the heat and they are too low to help much.

He liked it. Will he do anything........ I'll find out in the next few days..... It's ok... I took my med's.... I feel fine... just fine... fine... ah fine.. yes fine.............. eating, drinking, sleeping and thinking I’m a work unit. Its ok, its been over a month of this now, I’m getting use to it. I just have this overwhelming desire to manically laugh in a highly uncontrollable way, but the med's are kicking in. I’m fine, really, im just fine.

Well yes, but the answer isn’t the problem. The problem is will they let me answer it. It is like every landlord has the notion that the renter is going to destroy the building if they release any control on modifications.

Normally, in the past, landlords loved it when you are so concerned about the welfare of the building. Now I have to wait again for them to figure out I'm really on their side. Because I have to live here and the effects of poor air handling both in the ceiling and the interior heating would be easily offset by the power bill decrease, even if we as renters do it. I just need then to admit that it would be seen, in writing, as addition. Otherwise, I will be charged to return the original condition of the closet if I need to move. If fact, its breach of contract for doing it without any approval anyway. So I would be almost asking to kiss my sweet deposit goodbye.

It's ok, I'm getting quite use to this.... eat, drink, sleep and think I'm a work unit.... while psychotically sitting in a mountain of boxes. Taking my med's so not to notice the insanity. Now, if im good and i mean very good, I may get my life back up shortly. Just until then, i have only half the systems up that i normally run. And since you know how I am about the sound of victory, i mean i mean, cpu fans; then you can understand my grief in so many of my personal best are not on the front lines.

Now, tomorrow I find out if I have a chance to turn them on with the door open for testing. Since the monitor is outside the closet, I can track the temp of the systems with the door shut, as the hot weather clearing. But the heat the closet traps on a hot day is incredible. Not because of no vent, but due to the wall being heated by the sun for so long during the hottest part of the day. And on 2 sides, right next to the driveway blacktop.

Well, do I start manically laughing now, or would it be wise to wait for the med's to wear off first. The way things are, I could blow a fuse if i really let go. So I think I will just sit here, in the boxes, eat, sleep, drink and staying focused on that im a work unit. Because the other things that have happened recently are far more insane than I.

she could always get a noisy pump...LOL

Jo just looked over at me with that "is there a number I should call?" stare. With the words "Livingston I presume?". She said that because of the safari she had to take, just to wake me up this morning. She also remarked that 2 sherpa's were lost while traversing from the Dresser Peaks to the Nightstand Plateau. The passage over Mt. Boxes to the Headboard Range, then final into Bed Valley; was also filled with peril, but she had reported also that all had made it safely. Then she included the next remark: "WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO FIX YOUR ROOM!"

Our captain certainly is.
I’m game addict, but not for MW, not games at least, maybe because I'm very sceptical about bipedal fighting machines, but I really liked trilogy about Aidan Pryde of Clan Jade Falcon.
Right now I’m high on “Fallout 3”, before that were both S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games, “the Witcher”, "Fable"; “Warhammer 40k. “Unreal”, “Dawn of War” and “Spellforce” series, Syberia quests and “Dreamfall, the Longest Journey”, “Samorost”(it’s free quest game in Flash with beautiful design), StarCraft and WarCraft 2 and 3, “Majesty, the Fantasy Kingdom Sim”, “Tropico”.
These are my favourites, there were other games of course, but these has nice story or are just fun to play.
