About 3/4 of the way down the page. "How to fix a motor".
Tells me:

"Your small electric motor works by having electricity flow
through bare wires to generate magnetism. This magnetism
rotates a motor shaft. Motors can go bad and need repairs.
Repairing a motor can be complex, but it's not so bad if you
follow simple."

Hey, I'm so happy to find that motors use bare wires. Now, I
can take all that left over ground wire I've got, and wrap
it into motor windings. Don't have to worry about insulation
or anything.

And, how's this one?
=======================
By their nature, a furnace will remove the moisture from the
area that it heats. When the circulated air from the living
space flows over and through the heat exchanger, any
moisture may be "flashed off" by the contact of the hot
metal tubes. To replace...
=======================

Wow, a running heat furnace removes moisture? So, at the end
of the 15 year life span, I have this big furnace full of
moisture that it removed? With nutty advice and incorrect
loony tunes like this, I'm not eager to read any more of
this web page.

http://www.diychatroom.com/content/how-to-clean-a-central-air-conditioning-unit_f6b3d447-fc37-ff51-d913-bc0308ea9d2d/

Things You'll Need:
a.. Screwdriver
b.. Vacuum
c.. Soft brush attachment
d.. Filter
a.. Step 1:
Shut off the electrical power to the unit before you
begin.
b.. Step 2:
Start outside by cleaning the condenser. Unscrew and
remove the metal box on the outside of the unit. Be careful
not to bump the metal blades as they are easily bent.
c.. Step 3:
Vacuum the metal blades, known as fins, using a soft brush
attachment. You'll see debris such as leaves, dirt, grass
and cottonwood, all of which block the airflow and reduce
the air conditioner's ability to cool.
d.. Step 4:
Unscrew the fan to vacuum further inside the condenser.
You can't remove it since it is wired in, but you can lift
it a bit in order to clean more thoroughly.
e.. Step 5:
Replace the fan and the outer box and move indoors to
clean the evaporator inside the house.
f.. Step 6:
Locate the evaporator which is usually found inside a
metal duct close to the blower. Vacuum its fins the same way
you cleaned the fins on the condenser.
g.. Step 7:
Clean the blower using the same vacuum attachment and then
replace the filter. Turn the power back on and test the
unit.
========================================
You have just simply got to be kidding. Locate the
evaporator, and vacuum it? This web site is really going to
make more money for us HVAC techs.

A blonde moved into a new housing development. So new, that
the fire department map didn't show the street. They day
they moved in, she managed to burn the food on the stove.
So, she calls the fire department. The conversation went a
bit like t his:

FD: Fire department. What is your emergency?
Blonde: My stove is on fire!
FD: What is your adress, maam?
Blonde: 123 Birdbrain Lane.
FD: (sounding a bit confused) How do we get there?
Blonde: In a big red truck, d'uh.

Those things are a lot of fun to use for revenge.
Just make sure you have a friend who is completely
unknown to your target buy them for you. When we
use them for an air leak test, we call the fire dept
first to let them know what's going on. Otherwise,
you know what happens.
