@loresjoberg I'm soooo glad you're making things again. There are so many lines from the old Brunching Shuttlecocks that have stuck with me through the years (these are entirely from memory, as a test of my recollection). "A Picoboy is one one-trillionth of a boy. Well, one one-trillionth of a boy tastes a bit like a stale cream puff. That darn metric system." Also, saying of Darth Vader: "He's the 700-pound gorilla of the Force. He's got the snazzy mask, the flashy cape. I don't care what Obi-Wan says, this is a man who's made some good career moves."
@Chigaze the heat pumps thing really surprised me. Big force-air heat pumps have been around for 30-40 years... A/C for even longer. It's very odd.
