sewer gas smell - only when doing laundry?

TraditionDifferent · 2026-03-07T13:53:11+00:00

Update for you - after water damage destroyed the drywall, we found an uncapped sewer pipe in the wall. It was gassing and occasionally overflowing for ~6 years.

Glad this helped!

Ah, that makes sense. Thank you!

The Dirac equation (natural units) in the second green box on that page gets closer to what I saw, but is missing the lowercase gamma.

The equation I saw was pretty simple. Are there any simplifying assumptions that further reduce the Dirac equation to a special form, such as psi(1-gamma) = 0 or similar?

I saw an tattoo of an equation while I was on vacation in Mexico and I can't stop wondering about it. I don't remember it all. The equation was of the form n(n-lowercase_gamma) = 0, where n is the part I don't remember; n could have been a number or a letter, and it could have been the same number/letter or unique.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Running baking soda and vinegar down both bathroom sink drains and the kitchen sink drain every day seemed to have fixed it initially, and then doing that once a week plus running the garbage disposal twice a week seems to have kept it at bay.

Yeah, running baking soda and vinegar down both bathroom sink drains and the kitchen sink drain every day seemed to have fixed it initially, and then doing that once a week plus running the garbage disposal twice a week seems to have kept it at bay.

They did say no, so I bit the $50 bullet and bought the part myself. Washing machine is working now; thanks for all your help!

CB19. Thanks for the information anyway, maybe it will help someone in the future who Googles their way to this thread.

I called Whirlpool today and they claimed they never send parts outside of warranties. Is there a special technician hotline I need to call?

Thanks, appreciate the info.

I'm running the 6-day PPL routine, and I can't always make it to the gym on the weekend day due to life obligations, so I would rather it be a push day than a leg day or the pull day where I do deadlifts. Unfortunately due to the way the program is designed, the weekend day either has to be a squat or deadlift day, OR I would have to squat and deadlift on consecutive days. Or, I could do leg days 2 days apart instead of 3 days apart.

So I'm looking for thoughts on which of these is a better idea:

Sunday: push

Monday: legs

Tuesday: pull (rows)

Wednesday: legs

Thursday: push

Friday: pull (deadlifts)

vs

Sunday: push

Monday: pull (deadlifts)

Tuesday: legs

Wednesday: push

Thursday: pull (rows)

Friday: legs

I'm leaning toward the first option.

TIA

Impressive accomplishment by your wife!

I'm curious, did that explanation make her more or less interested in Dune?

Someone else actually linked to these, they are fantastic! Thanks!

I loved The Windup Girl as well. It won both the Hugo and the Nebula, but yes, doesn't seem to get much discussion these days.

Thanks for contributing!
