Thank you Todd,
If you come to me with questions about energy transmission and comfort in buildings, I am quite prepared to stand up against the 95% of architects, engineers and others who do not know what they are doing. When I suggest vegetable chain saw oil, I am not on the same strong footing. It was therefore good to get your view and it made me LOL. Now when everybody knows what it means.
