What brand? MTD then it rubber on pulley worn out and not move. How sad they still use that design since 70's.

On Oct 15 I plan go to Flint for MSD homecoming first time in 11 years. I wonder how can I handle to see all buildings that stupid Michigan State sold to Development. It was very beautiful in 2000 now it TRASHED.

Don't you feel like you want knock out people in State for spend whole $$$ building too many builds then later closed because money issues then later then want demolished whole buildings expect president house that still there since 1894.


What make Flint's people angry that superintendent say some buildings which only 50 years old are very dangerous it wasn't worth to repair. They say it cheaper to build new What sad that students enroll they used to had 400 in 1969.

No wonder Michigan put everybody in debt now.

Now I am guess they only had 130-150 now.

Look other school district they still use schools that are almost 100 years old.

Well, thank you Pat !

Question is anyone here good with Computers ?
I have a Camcorder that worked fine until the last two times I tried to download it to a DVD. I un-installed and re- installed. I have windows Vista...

It wont register that this Camcorder is hooked up to the PC at all.

Ask them if they remember how beautiful Michigan school for the deaf used to be. But that no make sense when they want demolish whole buildings expect president house. They was so proud to show new schools soon. They need their eye and brain exam. What a crazy news. When they start talk about new schools that will had newest technology and green. All I can image where $$ from? Then they say Development going leasing to them. My first worst thought would they able leasing forever or afford. When they mentioned they going had best security system and guards will be patrol around property. That isn't cool. Feel it invade your privacy.

Glad to know. Better replace chains they maybe look fine to you but later it going fall off due pins worn out in chain. Like we replace 2 chains in 10 years of use snowblower on Ingersoll 222.
