OK, the hotspots are all the way down on the leftside bookshelf. The right side and the various little “satellite stacks” will come later. I was just thinking how this might even be a good way to catalogue/photograph what I have in the house in case of something unforseen such as a house fire. I thought of that last night (possibility of fire) when we discovered that our outside heat/cool unit was not shutting off when the AC/Heat blowers had turned off……I had begun checking everything when we notiiced our electric bill shooting up to double of that last month (it hasn’t been much colder in December….some , but not much) so we were suspicious. It was also about 75% higher than last year in December, even though this year has been far milder than last. So it was running last night, and I was unsure about removing the big pull fuse from the box; unsure of how to properly shut things off. I figured this had been going on for a couple of weeks, so I figured one more night wasn’t going to start a fire or anything. The heat/AC guy showed up this morning and sho’ nuff, it was a “Contact” that had kind of melted together, that had kept the circuit connected when it was supposed to be OFF. THat set us back about $180, but I was afraid it might have been worse.

Anyway, I was about to say something about the Elizabeth O’Connor books. Next post.
