I am starting a new thread that is about other threads. You can talk about other discussions taking a place in Archinect and make cross references to a particular link, picture, response and whatever else you deem necessary or entertaining or thought provoking about the other thread. thus the name: Thread Central
here are some examples of comments that comes to mind:
* hey did you read on --------- thread ------- thinks frank gehry is good. hahahaharhar..
or,
*i can't believe he said that. how stupid of him. asshole.on top of it he is got hundreds of posts. gimme a break.
or,
* this is the best thread.. fuck the others..
or,
*****Thread Alert******
read the -----thread yet??? there is a dog fight going on between ----- and-----.it is about gondolas and pollution in Venice..see you there.
or,
* yeaah, i don't read that thread either. its kind a boring.
or,
*i am thinking about starting a discussion about ------------- ---- ---- will you guys in Thread Central post in it and say wow it a great thread?. it was about time 'somebody' (insert my name please) picked up on it.. and discuss it?
like whatever..

The archinect overlords have put their foot down.
I had an amazingly good class last night. My poster was at least as well recieved as any of my architecture has ever been, and I've got solid ideas for the next assignment. Unfortunately, I can't tell whether this is because a) exploring a new medium is always exciting, and therefor it might fade as it gets older to me, b) it's a cont. ed. class which is populated with not only architects and photographers, but with accountants and other randoms, and therefor I look great due to lack of competition, or c) this is genuinely the right fit for me. I know, only time will tell, but I can't help but wonder.

It would be nice if you could still pull it up to read, but you couldn't add anything to it - like a pdf. Then, if we have one of those "Great Moments in 2006" threads, we could reference some good writing or something.

i sort of like the ephemeral quality that the thread has once it's completely gone. it transcends direct accessibility and only exists in the collective consciousness of archinect members. and it wasn't anything but a bunch of electrons. how fascinating!

1. Javier (duh)
2. vado

well, here is my predicement. can somebody help me caculate the
# 166 "total load of new service panel. electrical code check is required if load exceeds 400 amp, 120/240 V, single phase."
this a plan checker request, i don't think it will exceed that. but is there a chart i can use to plug in to get it. this is for a +,- 1400 sq. ft. house with washer and dryer and ref, and d/w. with nothing more than required number of outlets, two ceiling lights in each room etc.(3W per sq. ft.?) i feel little rusty already. how do i do this? i've seen sample ones in internet so i did some homework on it. my problem is i never did it before.except in forgatten exams.
i don't think he is asking big deal but is there a "load calculation for a dummie?". i get dyslecsic @ amps, Watts and V's.
or should i directly e mail it to el jeffe even knowing he'd chew me up about it, before teaching it to me in two words. but hey, i know there are other brothers and sisters out there who can give me a little jolt to figure the service panel. i am willing to read all the necessary literature on it, if it is going to take me to correction-corrected level.

shorty has to use word fuckin' before every sentence he uses. if the sentence is long, he uses 2-3 times. he goes to tijuana a lot. thats where he is from. an original tijuanian for three generations. a real california guy. he use to work for g-man around the corner. g-man is okay mechanic he is mexican too. g-man gonzolo brings his 10 years old son to work during summer holidays. this tiny guy, jessy, has a mechanic's uniform (blue shirt and pants) just like his dad. i did as build drawings of g-mans home but the project stopped. i am also working on rodnick prasad's home. he is gonzolo's (g-man) partner and is from fiji. an indian surfer dude. shorty thinks g-man is alright but aamco pays more money. aamco is just bought from kamal, by n white guy ross, who is a wheelchair handicapped person but runs the place better than kamal who was clean handed rich pakistani disco guy. everybody agrees with me on ross' hands on management and success.. richie, the white guy who was fired on last ownership change, (kamal wanted to cut his pay by 200$ and ritchie left) , briefly came back but he was too far into heroin this time. he told me he is going back to brooklyn where he is from. nice guy one of those macho gay guys who had a great sense of humor. good luck to ritche.

he is right across the office too.
shorty has to use word fuckin' before every sentence he uses. if the sentence is long, he uses 2-3 times. he goes to tijuana a lot. thats where he is from. an original tijuanian for three generations. a real california guy. he use to work for g-man around the corner. g-man is okay mechanic he is mexican too. g-man gonzolo brings his 10 years old son to work during summer holidays. this tiny guy, jessy, has a mechanic's uniform (blue shirt and pants) just like his dad. i did as build drawings of g-mans home but the project stopped. i am also working on rodnick prasad's home. he is gonzolo's (g-man) partner and is from fiji. an indian surfer dude. shorty thinks g-man is alright but aamco pays more money. aamco is just bought from kamal, by n white guy ross, who is a wheelchair handicapped person but runs the place better than kamal who was clean handed rich pakistani disco guy. everybody agrees with me on ross' hands on management and success.. richie, the white guy who was fired on last ownership change, (kamal wanted to cut his pay by 200$ and ritchie left) , briefly came back but he was too far into heroin this time. he told me he is going back to brooklyn where he is from. nice guy one of those macho gay guys who had a great sense of humor. good luck to ritche.
