A neighbor told me their new AC/Furnace installer put one in. I had clogged gooseneck drain from condensation unit yesterday, gallons of watter on the floor that could not get throught the drain pipe. After shop vac time and taking cover off AC condenser unit, I found a flexible plastic pipe, fit it a few inches into top of drain and blew it clear enough to drain. But this took a long time. These days there has to be a simpler solution.

I love dogs, so I found it great to have them there. When I first saw a dog walking around, it kinda freaked me out because I thought I was seeing things. The owner, or at least I think it was, was very nice to me and very helpful. Maybe it’s because I knew how to open and close doors and like dogs. Plus the front of the “store” doesn’t look like a real store front, so maybe some of you should think it’s not very family friendly. Before going there the first time, I noticed it’s not in a very “store fronty” area, so I emailed them and asked if they even allow people there, he said yes, but it’s not really a store, but a warehouse with shelves. I expected something very different but it was a lot better than a warehouse would be. I would highly recommend this place. I’ve been there a few times and had a great experience.

I retreat to a study carrel in the basement there when I need to switch off from mobile phones and people at the client or office and get work done. Needless to say, I haven't been to Nerdbooks for well over a year now. Such great potential, such a shame. @Foo - I enjoy the main Richardson Library as well.
