It just occurred to me that there must be potato goo all over the insides of the microwave. I opened the door and what a mess! I tried scrubbing it off to no avail. I thought about a solution for a long time. I decided to take a bowl and put half a bottle of Dawn in the bowl and run the wave on high for an hour. I reasoned that the vapors from the Dawn would clean or at least, loosen the crud. Well, about half-way through the cycle, smoke starting appearing. Next thing I know, there goes the smoke alarm again. In a few minutes, I hear sirens. Wait, da*n, there is a knock at the door. See y'all later. Have a feeling I am going to jail for a second offense.

Talk to your buddy Pio. JK. I just wanted to ensure that there was no understanding with the women in this thread. It is very important to me.

2much is not a night owl. Neither is nams for the most part. Or Luna. Larousse will be here before long. Apparently, she spends an inordinate amount of time putting money into gumball machines these days. B comes and goes. And Jen, I don't know.

I guess to me I feel less able to offer opinions and advice because I haven't experienced the full horror if you will. I take the opposite view. I think you are more qualified because you have survived.

I stick to what I know and I'm fine. I'm sorry - point of clarification: are we talking now about marriage building or geopositioning of heavy mining equipment (or both)?

and hey pio, get off of my cloud. Typo or Freudian slip? I like your cloud. There is a great view from up here. Your cloud seems to be higher than most. Could it be the hot air?

Okay so now that you have consented to give advice on it, why on earth is it so important to position a 20,000 ton piece of equipment with that much accuracy? I thought you guys just set off big explosions and then went about picking up the debris. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

Ah. But exactly where do you want it to go Bang. And how do you set that out? You can use a Surveyor of course but where's the fun in that.
Also, if a Excavator for instance, is uncovering an ore body, it helps them to know how far they need to dig and where. Again, they could use a Surveyor, but really, anything that minimises the Light Vehicle/People/Heavy Vehicle interactions in a mining environment is superior, not to say cost effective.
Or say, perhaps, you want to know the productivity of a Dozer - press a button and you have it.
We are talking high precision GPS here - 2" accuracy BTW.
