    sorry

    i ran this through spell check and i'm still having trouble understanding what you are asking.please don't think me a dick!----------------------------------------------------------I must have asked at least two dozen people, just say the same question, duct size, or say tonnage, and they all say something different every one of them. I can see if you ask the question, and they all say the same answer, but to have that many people say different things, is it that they don't no what their doing or is it that they all have different views on things?

    As in any trade Pro opinions are going to vary. Everyone does things differently,sometimes one way is the "book" correct way, sometimes it's the "field" way. Sometimes we're wrong.....just don't tell anyone.
    If everything was always done "by the book"....the book would never change.

    Translation:

    You will be told by at least two dozen peaple (not to be confused with people), the same answer: duct size.

    Or you say "tonage" and they all say something different.
    (problem is that none of the peaple know how to spell tonnage)

    Like "0of". Synonymous with "Get Off".

    You can see when they answer the question (the words are formed in a steamy cloud as the speaker exhales), and you hear them say the same answer: duct size.

    It's so hard when that many peaple say different things, though the answer is always : duct size.

    They all know what they are doing.

    Despite having different views on things, then answer is always : duct size.

    Can also vary from town to town and state to state.

    The one with the right answer is right.

    The ones that got it wrong are wrong.

    Sometimes people get different answers to the same question because they ask it differently each time they ask.

    If it's a duct question the answer is either QUACK! or Afflac.

    Tonage(sic) issues...locate a weigh station and make sure you have adequate trailer brakes.

    instead of "tonnage" lets just say BTU'S.as in 12000 btu's equals 1 ton. i think we can all spell "btu". just a thought.
