Thanks for sharing.

"Their" works for "gets their panties in a bunch" but not for "their
doing". That would be "they're", "knows what they are (or they're) doing."

Maybe you've been doing this too long?

Is there a little switch that turns off the fan a minute or two after
the heater has turned off? That's what seems to be hanging. Would that
switch be in the little relay on the side of the blower case that has
two wires going to the motor?

If you knew how many Homeowners came in here asking stupid questions for
the umpteenth time you may better
understand the attitude. And no ignoring the posts isn't a reasonable request.
The regulars here have been here for
close to decades. Sarcasm and raucous exchanges are common. Lose the attitude
and read the replies carefully and most
questions are answered however the answers aren't always the HO's want to here...

I'm familiar with newsgroups where they discuss Windows XP, spyware,
photoshop and general internet problems and I see people asking
questions for the umpteenth time and people still try to help.

To start off a reply by questioning my service record and the way I
maintain my automobiles doesn't seem to really help?

I'm not here to hear what I wanted to hear, I'm here for some help. I
apologize for being a HO in this newsgroup. I guess I need to find a
newsgroup for HO's?

Here's what you need to do...

1. Locate a phone book

2. Look up "Heating Contractors"

3. Locate a working phone

4. Call the number and schedule a service for your furnace

5. Be home when the repairman comes and show him the way to your furnace

6. Then let him do his job without your input on what you "think" is wrong
with it

7. Pay the man after the repairs are completed

8. Enjoy your comfort, knowing the job was done by someone competent and
familiar with Heating systems

Good enough for ya?

Dog-gone-it Jethro, I can't find the danged phone. Elly May thought it
was out by the concrete pond but now it looks like Cousin Bessie has
hidden it. Funny thing, when Granny went to apply her potion to the
heater she found one of Elly May's raccoons in there. Once we got that
critter out the heater, it worked just like it used to.
