Re: BigAl's slow chronicle . . .

For the most part they went away over time. I adjusted flow in all three areas (fuge, return, DT Drain) and found a balance that finished them off. Mostly it was just time.

Re: BigAl's slow chronicle . . .

I suspect that Al stayed up late just to tell us that it's too late to post pics. He is working the suspense angle. I can see right through this.
