Well here's my 2 cents worth. . . . Y'all being waaay too patient. NOONE requires 2 (I'm assuming Rubbermaid type) totes of wire - not even an electrician. That is entirely unreasonable and disrespectful. How large are these totes anyway?? He gets ONE bin, marked wire. His responsibility to go thru the two and consolidate into one --> within the next two weeks Unwilling to do so? Fine, then it will all go into the garbage truck at the next opportunity. Don't like it? Divorce me. It's one thing for you or I or our DH's/DS's . . . to keep a small amount of stuff that others feel is unreasonable, silly, pointless or whatever. However an enormous amount of stuff that will likely never be used and also impinges basically on others freedom thru its existence &/or aggravation is unfair and disrespectful. It basically says "I and my desires are more important than you and yours." All that said, I do have a couple of questions: What does your DH do with all this wire? IS he an electrician? and How often is he going in to the 'present bags of wire in totes' and leaving them laying about? Is he re-wiring the house or something? We're amidst lots of renovations but I can't recall anything for which we've needed wire. At best I'd think we'd *perhaps* need it maybe once or twice a year. So I'm a little confused why the *wire mess* exists?

I just gotta tell ya...."main man" ......that sounds like you have a dozen or so and he is just the main one....LOL I think they are all slow. From day one...almost 42 years ago....

My Mom would have loved it. Way back in the 70's she got hooked on CB radios. We had one in our 1965 Olds. Her handle way Shy Ann and mine was Snowbird. I think she may have seen Smokey and the Bandit one too many times. My Mom had cancer and getting out was not always possible, but she could get out to the car and talk with all of her trucker friends. We lived right in the middle of Los Angeles at the time and she had tons of people to talk with. She belonged to a club of some sort as well. She passed in 79 but I think she would have LOVED the internet. I also think she would have been so happy sitting here at the KT too. We have several Ham folks here. It looks like a whole lot of fun! Trish And Lindsay- I am so bummed! I hope they bring it back. It is the first thing I want if I ever get back to CA.
