Semi_Hemi_Demigod , 9 days ago to Home Improvement in Options for equalizing temperature between the basement and the rest of the house in summer?

When I was a kid some family friends had put an air-moving fan in the floor from the basement to the first floor. On hot summer days it would pull the cool air from the basement, and in the winter it would circulate the air from near their woodstove in the basement to the upstairs.

Maybe that would help? Wiring would be the hardest bit to figure out. After that it's just cutting a hole in the floor.

If cars got the same level of maintenance as planes and drivers got the same training as pilots I'd believe that.

The best way I've heard it put is that society values women for what they are, and values men for what they do. This is bad for everyone, of course, but it's how things have worked.

People always complain about Altimas because they're unpredictable, but the absolute worst offenders I see are Honda CRV drivers specifically because they're trying to be polite on the road. I'd take some busted Altima weaving through traffic over a CRV who decides to be nice and stop at the end of the onramp so they don't cut anyone off.

They won't listen, but I'm glad it's at least in the record so future generations know we weren't all assholes

As a man, I don't even like men. So I wouldn't blame anyone for hating them. As a whole we're right bastards.
