Late last year one of my longest consistent friends and a brilliant engineer passed away. We met in college and remained close until the end. Today, I am feeling more sorry for myself because he was my go to for any central plant related questions I had and I have one today that I wish I could discuss with him. And to add insult to injury, the amazing Jim Coleman, who could retain the most minute information, was my go to for any TAB questions, which I also have today. I am so close to retirement where my "I almost grasp it all, but really need the confirmation" will be gladly let go. In the meantime I am mad at you two for leaving me behind without intimates to confer with. You two are probably babbling away up in the universe somewhere, shaking your heads. "After all the discussions, she still doesn't get it." To which I rebut, if I had known you two would exit stage left so early, I would have a) listened better, b) made a point of memorization or c) taken notes that I could later locate; so, still your fault.
