Hi Trop. The door of each bin has a circular screen on it of about 4 inches wide for either air circulation (if it's facing out or up) or drainage (if facing down). For additional air circulation, it also has a circular screen on both ends. Before I turned it today I opened it and stuck my hand inside and the air felt pretty warm but it was not steamy. All in all, I'm pretty happy with it.

I've shipped many pkgs via Priority mail using the e-mail notification feature. I've received many more but am extremely fortunate in that we have the nicest mail lady, Tina. Being in the country, she delivers via a mail vehicle. Knowing how to butter up people, I give her an ARS rose calendar every year and often leave rose blooms in floral tubes in my mail box for her. When we get a package, she brings it to the door along with the other mail. If she knows we're not feeling well she'll bring our mail to the door. I ship roses and on one occassion a little water leaked through the box. I had taken it to the post office to ship and the counter clerk noticed the wet spot. She helped me repackage it right there. I've lived in smaller towns all my life with post offices that employ people who know of me and my rose hobby. I'm always treated well and they seem to go out of their way to assist me. Fortunately, I've never had an experience like yours. If I'm not going to be home, a note in my mailbox and/or on the door will get any package and the mail delivered to my neighbor's house.

behaviorkelton -"I have ordered prescription drugs (w/o a prescription) online about five years ago, and was pleased with the speed and quality of service. I'm thinking of doing the same thing with my migraine medication (Imitrex). Imitrex is expensive, but there is a generic version available overseas." behaviorkelton-Though it isn't related to the original topic, I thought you might find this article of interest. Magnetic stimulation blocks migraine pain June 27, 2008 A hand-held device that painlessly sends a magnetic pulse into the head may offer some migraine sufferers relief, a small study suggests. The device delivers a therapy known as transcranial magnetic stimulation, or TMS. It sparks a magnetic pulse that, when held against a person's head, creates an electric current among the nerves cells of the brain. This, in turn, disrupts migraines in the "aura" phase, before they trigger pain. Though migraines strike without warning in most cases, some people experience an aura stage, which is marked by visual disturbances, like flashes of light or zigzag lines, or other sensations such as tingling or numbness. For the new study, researchers recruited 201 patients suffering from migraine with aura, then randomly assigned them to use the TMS device or a "sham" device the investigators used for comparison. Patients were instructed to apply the device over the site of the migraine, at its onset. The researchers found that two hours after treatment, 39 percent of the TMS patients were pain-free, versus 22 percent of patients using the sham device. Dr. Yousef Mohammad, of The Ohio State University in Columbus, reported the findings Friday at the annual meeting of the American Headache Society, underway in Boston. "This is very significant," Mohammad told Reuters Heath. "This is a much better response than is achieved with any other method or medication that we have." By interfering with the aura phase of migraine, Mohammad explained, TMS essentially interrupts the "electrical storm" that culminates in migraine pain. In some study patients, the treatment also eased migraine-related symptoms of nausea and sensitivity to light and sound. "This is very highly significant," Mohammad said. "We have never received this kind of response" with any currently available migraine medication or device. Sunnyvale, California-based NeuraLieve, the manufacturer of the TMS device used in the study, funded the work. Mohammad serves on the company's board of directors.

20 minutes is my upper limit for waiting for a table at a restaurant. I live in Houston and there is ALWAYS another option just next door or down the street. But the reality is, if I were in a situation where I was hungry and it was wait an hour or eat at MickeyD's, I'd go to MickeyD's. I have, in my lifetime, been forced into situations of waiting 1.5 hours+ for a table and I'm not exaggerating. And when I say forced, I mean, I had no choice as it was due to circumstances over which I had no control. I will not do it again. Period. There is a BBQ spot in Austin (I can't remember the name of it but it's apparently pretty famous) that cooks a certain amount of meat every day and when it's gone, it's gone. People line up an hour or two before it opens to make sure they can get some. Especially on the weekends, but even on weekdays, if you don't get there early enough before they open, you just won't get any. I've never had it but would be willing to try it -- if someone else did the waiting!! Can it really be that good?? amck's seafood place reminds me of Ivar's in Seattle. It's actually the opposite of waiting in line. It's been years since I was there so I don't know if it still works this way but there is no line. Everyone just bunches up at the counter and works toward catching the eye of one of the order takers. You could be there for a minute or two or forever if you're not good at getting their attention. The salmon there was cheap and delicious and you could eat on the pier next to the restaurant so it was lots of fun. You just had to be agressive (no problem for me!). Since maxmom mentioned Krispy Kreme, it reminded me of when they opened here in Houston several years ago. There was a lot of hype and people waited in line for their donuts. And ummm... yeah, they were ok. (I didn't wait in line but a guy in my office did and brought some in for us to try.) But we already have the very best ever donuts here at a place called Shipley's where you never have to wait. KK lasted about four years or so before they all closed up. Just goes to show you. Novelty & hype aren't enough to overcome competition of a better product. On a final note to my loooong post, I have waited a long time for a burger - an incredibly delicious burger & wonderful fries - at a place called the Petrol Station here in Houston. However, it's a very pleasant bar with out door seating and lots of beers on tap. So you go, you order your burger, you drink your beer, you hang out. An hour later or so, depending on how busy they are, your burger arrives. Not the same as waiting in line and well worth the wait. Problem there is their kitchen is teeny tiny and I think they can only make four burgers at a time. Someone told me that they are currently expanding their kitchen so I only hope the quality doesn't suffer once they do. That is a darn good burger. Bun is good, toppings are perfect and fries are homemade and fabulous.
