You were mis-informed (he says with his best Bogie accent).

The magnitude rarely remains unchanged from when it's first reported. As additional data is collected it's almost always revised.

Morning all.

Thought for the day -

Are you enjoying what you are doing right now? If not, why not do something else?

Hey, before you go, a quick question. We just had an issue come up that you might know about. Someone stole the grate from our sump pump pit here at the plant. It's around 20 x 20 and was cast iron. Isn't something like that a commercial item that should be available? Where is a good source for finding that?
