[UC] Chimney relining question
hi all. I've searched through the archives, so now I'm turning to the list. We need to find another chimney relining person to come in and give us not just an estimate, but advice re whether the chimney itself needs to be taken apart near the roof line and rebuilt, or just lined with a steel liner, or something in between. We've had F. Lotierzo and Sons, T. Kada and Bob Hughes all come in; their advice and estimates were so divergent that we feel like we need to talk to a 4th person (I'd be happy if any two of them had similar advice.) Anyone else that any of you have used? or heard good things about? Someone had recommended Barnes, but we couldn't find a phone #, and Bocca never called back. Thanks.

Re: [UC] Chimney relining question
There was a recent discussion regarding the lining of chimneys. I think the concensus was that lining was the way to go and was probably now adays code. My chimney was recently taken apart at the roof line and rebuilt. There is now a large slate cap over the chimney (they did a nice job) but I still get water (lots of it) in my furnace vent (the liner is now rusting). So, oddly enough I had the 3 mentioned chimney guys out to my place to give me a recommendation on my chimney. All 3 also gave me different answers. I find it odd that there's no concensus in the field about what seem to be standard problems. Eric Kassab (47/Baltimore plumber) recommended I call Andy McNally (215/836-5330). I haven't dealt with it further but you might want to call Andy. Good luck, Stephen [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: hi all. I've searched through the archives, so now I'm turning to the list.

RE: [UC] The Great Pizza Eatoff
You guys are in luck - you can order online using campusfood.com. there are several pizza places that use it, including varsity. I ordered allegro pizza once using the website, and it went pretty smoothly. it might take a little longer than calling directly, but you get the added benefit of no human contact ;) --- Christy Bracken [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Well, we've really only been ordering from PJ's because they let you order online.

What was odd was that we'd been ordering from papa johns, which turned out to be the worst of the bunch. Price/value wise I think we shall be using Varsity, which is only several blocks away. -Original Message- From: Wilma de Soto [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, October 05, 2004 10:28 AM To: Dan Myers; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; UnivCity listserv Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [UC] The Great Pizza Eatoff I also would like to know was it a thick versus thin pizza taste-off? I am very partial to the Sicilian style pizza I grew up with and LOVE Franco and Luigi's in South Philly or Pica's on West Chester Pike in Upper Darby. I try to take one home when I can. No Sicilian pies were tested I take it, only Neapolitan-style, right? Wilma You are receiving this because you are subscribed to the list named UnivCity.

[UC] Crime Map
http://ellingsworth.org/crime/University_City.htm This map shows the locations of various crimes throughout UCity from May 24, 2004 through September 26, 2004. Some days the data is unavailable; when it is, I will add it to the map. You can view a csv file of the data used to create the map here: http://ellingsworth.org/crime/summercrimes.csv The incidents are highlighted based on date: Black pushpin = September 2004 Green pushpin = August 2004 Blue pushpin = July 2004 Tan pushpin = June 2004 Red pushpin = May 2004 Some of the pushpins overlap, making it difficult to determine how many crimes took place at that time; use the data file to get a precise answer. You can mouseover or click a pushpin to see the type of crime; the info will display in your url address bar and your status bar. The information used to create the maps comes from the University of Pennsylvania's Almanac Crime Statistics Index, which is based on reporting by the UPPD the Philadelphia Police 18th District: http://www.upenn.edu/almanac/crimes-index.html I make no claims for the validity of their information or any information portrayed in the map. In other words, don't count on it. Good day. You are receiving this because you are subscribed to the list named UnivCity.

Re: [UC] The odd behavior of my neighbors
In those two glorious years when the Flyers won the Stanley Cup (get out the history books!), the kids took trash can lids to bang on and announce the news to the neighborhood.

WHAT does one do with collections of stolen garbage can lids, In suburbia rock fights. The lids make excellent shields. Not an event in which smart girls participate. In Philadelphia trashmen used to throw them in the back of the truck with the trash, so they did not have to waste time trying to put them back on the cans. If the choices do not match your UPenn concept of how the world should work, you can believe the wind blew them away. You're showing your age Craig ... :) Who has metal trash-can lids today? The plastic ones simply do not have either the hand-holds or robustness of the old metal ones. A single sword blow can shatter them, especially in the winter. (Although they do withstand paint-balls equally well, they just don't have the same satisfying tink to inform your opponent that they missed.) Which is also why the plastic lids don't make good sleds either. However, that doesn't stop folks from trying. However, the plastic lids do float on the breeze and make much more aerodynamic and quieter Frisbees than the metal ones. Which gets back to the fact that, since the trashmen were corrected from throwing the lids in the truck, they simply drop them on the ground, where they tend to land handle down (just like buttered toast) allowing them to soar on their own, frequently on the breeze generated by the always within the speed limit vehicles bopping up and down the streets.
