    If I fail something because its not up to code, more often than not they cry to the engineer and pressure them to let the work continue. The only thing I can do is write it up in my report and divert the liability to the engineer.

    That’s definitely a P9. The box underneath it is the premium motor power supply. It’s “hand matched” to the table, so it’s a separate piece in name only.

    prevent such occurrences = sudden death from cardiac arrest
    I spent half a century in medical device R&D including AEDs for use in the chain of survival when someone has a deadly cardiac event.
    Steve Albini died of a heart attack.

    They probably got separated from a package surround system at some point. When I think Definitive I think more of their bi-polars, of which I am a fan. Hope you find a good use for them, for that price should be hard not to.

    Yeah, they were part of a home theater speaker set. The set goes for an even grand. I think I’m gonna take a look around at the other Goodwills in town just to make sure I don’t see any other parts of the set since they centralize a lot of donations.

    The usual thing is to have all the foreign characters speak in an English accent. But if the movie has many prominent English characters, it would be better for the French to speak in American accent. Bah! Just make the movie in the languages the characters spoke, and use subtitles.
