Attention New Members and those new registering!
We had a lot of problems with spammers and bot attacks with the stock measures provided by the software. The 7 for registration was a fix that we came up with on our own that has worked quite well. Yes it is a PIA for both you and administration to put you onto your chosen username.
If you come back on and your login does not work retry with your username without the 7.

Thanks for joining us from the administration.

last friday we dug a hole for a basement level of a new building - formed and poured footings , friday night we got a deluge , washed out some of the work ......

yesterday we took the side off a precast building opened up about 60 feet of wall , 24 feet high , seveer storm moved thru about two houhs later , another deluge and high winds [we did not get the 80mph strraight lines an adjacent area got , but] we took on enough water that it took five of us about two hours with brooms and squeeges to clear it , got to bed about midnight and up at four to relieve the security guard at five [he was hired to do a five-to-five shift] gotta say this company has a decent bunch of guys working for it , not one grumble , last night or this morning so far ,

running on two pots of strong coffee - we shall see what today brings , still looking like its gonna storm and we are due to remove another 60 feet of wall today ,

Yup, there are a lot of trees down on both sides of us. For some reason we were in the middle and only had a few small branches down.
