From all I've heard, a few days in China, especially if you get outside the big cities, would cure you of all your problems with southern Italy. My brother and then a friend living there have cured me of any desire to ever go.

Hmm, yea, or BFE Waterford OH? Yeah . . time to consider moving on and getting out of the field ;-) ? I know you love it, though. Want a visitor in Italy over my spring break?

When is your spring break? My schedule over the next 6 weeks is really busy and my living accomodations don't really suit having a guest. Last year I would have told you to come on over.

Hey there,
It's the week of March 20. If it doesn't work then, maybe later in the spring. I'm planning on travelling around Europe in June.

Hopefully things will be calmer by June hopefully we can meet up then.

Trying to commission a plant before the motor control centers are installed ? Yep. Been there.

So, if your MCC's are in yet, that means the loop checks aren't done yet either ? IF these are >600v, hi-pot testing ?

There is such a crunch on the world right now for resources, everyone's eating into schedule float.

As for Western Europe vs. China - I'd pick China.

The success of the project is always the objective. So, if you have to play nurse-maid to a contractor - you do it.
