Title: Busy Week
Post by: Kirk Allen on February 17, 2008, 08:49:49 PM
Looks like this week will be pretty hecktic.  I have to go to Chicago Tuesday, Madisonville, KY on Wed or Thursday and Cincinnatti on Friday :(

The Madisonville trip is pending Biomizer's completion of the test units.    :-\

It sounds as though you need to put a bed in that new vehicle.

Weather sure changed up this week.  Going to Chicago in the morning, Cincinnattie on Monday, and still waiting to hear from WM on the pick up time for my sawdust burner.

Are they having issues with the burners?.  Seems like it's taking a while to get them rolled out.  Considering the crazy price of oil, they would sell awesome!!

I understand the first unit burned up.  They thought it might happen if pushed to the limit so they set one up and pushed it to the limit and it did in fact burn up.  Not sure of all the details but I am sure I will find out next week when I pick up my unit.  They have been "tweaking" several things on it to make sure its the best possible and that has been part of the delay.

Up and back to Chicago and the only challenge was the idiots between Champaign and Tuscola.  They got hammered with snow and I counted 35 cars either in the ditch or piled up with each other on the shoulder. 

Took 1 hour to go 20 miles on the interstate :o

That is what you get for living up there (Yankee land) instead of down here in the sunny south!

The unit burned up.  Ok, I'll accept that as a very good idea for delaying rolling them out.... :-\

Pretty scary, I guess they need to get that figured out pretty quick.

I figured it was a good call as well. :D

So much for the weather cooperating.  Did manage to make it to Cinci and back in 6 hours but the fog at the IN, OH line was miserable.  Still hadn't burned off at 10am ???

Over all a good trip but it never did warm up the way the said it was goign to.  Now they are calling for 4-6 inches of white stuff.  :o
