I have a fancy poolhall and restaurant. Check out the 'virtual reality' 360 degree shots on the website. And if interested in James Joyce, the page "art in the bistro."

"Rapid motion through space elates one; so does notoriety; so does the possession of money."
This quote comes from "After the Race' in The Dubliners by James Joyce.

I'm glad someone understands the lost art of Algebra.

Never made it past the FOIL method.

Algebra is entertaining

Trigonometry and calculus are just bananas

Maths are easy! Few have suicide trying to solve fermat's last theorem

You got to love it.

Still trying to formulate and solve the odds of those using the sticky 10W40 oils and putting 11" wide wheels on their Boxster. I'm a begginer

Fun thread.

Founder of Norway's second largest craft brewery. So I make people happy for a living.

Pretty sure Haz's paper has written about us a few times.

Isn't that a single pass multi-section hot water boiler?

Yes, but steam. All boilers are sectional. Some big, some small. Same BTU in hot water is a much bigger boiler.

I'll bet. Our bigger brewery has a 750kW boiler which is probably good for 900kg/hr steam. We run 1 bar or 4 bar pressure depending on the application. Since all our power is hydro, its also a reasonably green way to brew beer! :-)
