Teflon tape and pipe dope are crap, JIC flare's are good but extreme temp. swings can cause/expose leaks, ORB (O-Ring Boss) fittings are excellent against leaks but you want a good compound o-ring (90 durometer is good). To soft a o-ring will get destroyed by pressure.

I have tried that one, seems like that was the way i always did it before. It should be easy but have found out differently today.
I have a relative with a pre pay cell phone in another state and we cannot contact. He calls me free anytime so i thought he had to have the same service as me, ATT. But i have contacted them three times today and they cannot find his service.
They said maybe he is using a carrier that sub leases from ATT, they gave me the main sub-lease carrier which it was not. This carrier told me if they someone was subleasing from ATT they should know who the carrier is by the phone number. No luck.

Or...pop off the back of your cell...look if the sim says att..tmobile...or no SIM at all..
another way is to restart your phone and look what comes up as it starts...cingular (att)m, verizon...If you relative has a pay as you go att...att is the only service they can talk to free...

I do have ATT Wdcisco and it has to be ATT service that our relative has unless someone signed a special contract with ATT.
ATT said that they have no record of the phone number or name and that came from both customer service and the service techs 3 different times. I am going to try again tomorrrow at ATT maybe i just need to get someone that can go beyond the basics.
The problem with the circuit (if thats what it is) has been going on for three days. Our big concern would be if he had no minutes left on the phone. That means there is something else wrong, thats why i am trying to find out. I am pretty sure it's the circuit but we have nobody close to this person that can go check on him and at this point do not want to call the police to check.
I never thought it would be this hard to find out about a possible problem with a circuit no matter who's circuit it is.
I call one time it does not ring, i call later and it says all the circuits are busy, then another call indicates it's out of service, it changes between them all day long. Got to be the circuit.

Just saw your post Tex Thanks.
oh...misunderstood...gotchya.
If you have the home address, use theultimates.com to get other addresses on the block, then reverse lookup to call a neighbor and ask them to check... maybe? I do that sometimes when checking out hard-to-reach companies, TAs, etc...

Sometimes i do not write perfectly clear. Every so often i go back and read one of my own posts and think to myself that does not even make sense to me and i wrote it. Then i go in the other room and blame my wife for not correcting my grammer. She's the blame.

Little off topic of math, but I have had some bouts with insomnia in my life time so sometimes I will play little games in my head to put myself to sleep. Well last saturday I really needed to take a nap because I was drained, so one game I got to was using the alphabet and thinking of an anatomical part in the body. ex. A- aorta, B- bracial plexus... all was good and my task was nearing completion I could feel Mr. sandman was near X- Xiphiod process Y- ??? hmmmm I started squirming around ummmm Y- wtf oh no I tried to rationalize in my mind that a Y chromosome counted because it made up the essence of anatomy but it didnt satisfy me; now I was wide awake. I did a little searching through some books and nothing except yolk sac and some diseases that began with the letter Y... my wife said, I thought you were gonna take a nap; I said nahhh I am obsessing over nonesense let's go get some food... I fell asleep that night by fooling myself into thinking Y chromosome was good enough... The next day we went to an educational toy store and as my wife and daughter played with some products I stood in the corner like a freak searching through 8th grade anatomy posters because I knew Y- chromosome didn't really work since it only works for males and not females XX anyways........ There it was my answer ahhhhhhh it was in bone... YELLOW bone marrow.... Please remind me never to try and calculate pie; I would hate to self destruct like one of the machines in the old star trek episodes...

Muah bdgee; BTW thanks, a while back you told me about using Simoniz wax it helped on 2 scratches but the deeper 1 remains... 2 out of 3 aint bad

You can still answer maybe you have a different method. Any help is appriciated. Thanks

I long ago lost count of how many times I have taught trigonometry. From the days I first learned it myself, I have never been able to remember all those identities and formulas, except for one:
quote:Originally posted by bdgee: Where so often teachers (by job title, not necessarily by accomplishment) make the mistake is teaching via what seems to them to be THE way to learn, since it is how they were successful.
Student A may have those same learning characteristics, whereas, student B simply has a memory technique such that he cannot learn by that route, thus the teachers fails with student B. Sadly, it isn't the teacher, but student B who receives the failing grade.
A good teacher learns that the old sculptor's description of his art as "I just cut away all the parts of the tree that don't look like a horse" tells a lot about art and teaching and the teacher must realize that two trees may have different horses inside, but horses, never-the-less.
Even though you and the Munchkin Man have entirely different philosophies on mathematics and what characteristics make and do not make "a good teacher", the Munchkin Man would like to pick your brain a bit with the following questions:
***Do you think a separate and distinct course in Geometry is needed in a sound secondary level mathematics curriculum?
Or:
***Do you think that Geometry can be better taught in a more synthesized manner, interspersed throughout the curriculums of Algebra 1, Algebra 2, Trigonometry, and Math Analysis (or Pre-Calculus)?
***Do you favor an inductive or a deductive approach to the teaching of Geometry?
***Do you think that "proofs" in Geometry are overrated and overemphasized -- or underrated and underemphasized?
The Munchkin Man would be interested in your replies to the questions above.
Sorry, cj, if that is intended to be Pi, it is wrong. No physical or written decimal representation of Pi is possible, since it is an irrational number.

It is impossible to know (or for there to be one you just happen to not know) a decimal representation of Pi or it wouldn't be Pi, because that would make it be a rationalnumber.

Oh..ok..well you know if he had a prepaid phone and he didn't put minutes on it for a while it gets disconnected and the number gets redistributed...GL!
