Agnosticism (possibly spelled wrong) is very misunderstood, a true agnostic does not believe nor disbelieve anything and that includes god, far off placed and the past and future. in an infinite universe, anything is possible.

I have one of these in my factory. It's a frequency converter for 3-Phase power. It levels out the power so that some electric motors can run more efficiently. I have two shapers and I have to turn on my frequency converter before I can run them. It takes a min for the power to stabilize. I have these funky 3-phase light bulbs that slowly light up so I know the power is stable and I can turn the machines on. The real cool part is you can change the brushes without any tools, they just flip up. you can see it on this picture with the exposed ends on the on the closer generators. I've never seen frequency converters like these used on 480-volt 3-phase(common today) just with 550, like mine which is old school. I speculate that these where used to run some auxiliary motors in the factory (blowers, etc.)

At the risk of sounding really old school, I remember the early days of the internet: writing custom scripts to open a modem connection, writing more scripts to dial a number, staying connected for two days solid to download the newest release of Slackware Linux, running Mosaic to see the hottest new thing on the net. Back when the net wasn't 75% porn! Wow, I miss those days...
ThrillKill: I don't run Windows, so I don't have this reliance on IE that everyone else has. I use Firefox 100% of the time, and never have a problem loading a site. Do you have any examples of ones that don't work?

I wrote it in the words of them. They say it's cruel because they don't think of asylums as anything BUT cruelty. They think all the paitents in here are normal people abducted off the streets and beat to death. "Omfg I bet they shoved people in this fireplace while it was burning as a form of punishment"

Yeah, that's what I was going for, but I think you wrote it better. I don't see the reason why they said this was cruel. Seems to me like they went out of their way to do little things like this to help the patients feel normal...

Omg Paitents feelign normal, oh no tha'ts cruelty. I should report this place to the po-lice. Paitents are supposed to feel abnormal cramped in little rooms all day. Left to make no friends and not have a meaning in life. Not like they're ever getting out. So, this fireplace is a cruel horror. CRUEL CRUEL. OMFG IS IT BLOOOOD ON IT TOOO. BLOOOOOOD.
Anyways Jo isn't in a good mood.

It's called reasonable precautions. If someone were to get hurt inside, the owners could say they took reasonable precautions to prevent entry, including sealing the entrances, putting up a fence, and putting up this sign. They are covering their legal bases so that they don't have to pay a stupid injury lawsuit...

??? WTF??? Haven't you ever seen a multi-floor fireplace? It's not like you could jump in one to fall down and die... The only thing you could possibly do to hurt yourself is to get in when it's running, and I doubt that the staff would have let you do that. They had fireplaces to help make the patients feel normal, how is that cruel? I don't understand...

I don't know that they look mushy so much as they look well worn in. The depressions appear to be in roughly the same spot, like where someone would be walking. Of course, I'd still want a stick or something to test each stair before I went up them... :D
