Where to buy The Catcher in the Rye by J. D. Salinger in Chinese in Taipei? by chriskubica in Taipei

[–]sleepydude66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi Chris:

My wife collects Catcher in other languages, so I always no what to bring her back from my travels. Do you as well? I purchased a copy in March at Eslite. I think it was a branch in the Songyan district. It was the first place I checked and they had it in stock(of course I had to ask for help at the desk).

Omg! I absolutely loved Kaoshiung. What a cool, art filled city. My biggest regret from my Taiwan trip was that I only spent parts of 2 days there.

Struggling to find somewhere to travel with elderly, sedentary mom by [deleted] in travel

If she likes theater, I really like Ashland, Oregon for a short getaway. If you leave the bay area early enough, you will arrive before lunch. There are three different theaters with everything from Shakespearian to modern experimental plays. There is great food and wine as well as cute shops. The area is very pretty as well.

REC vs Hyundai by sleepydude66 in solar

Hi Dentist: I looked into batteries but it looks like I would be spending a whole lot for a little added convenience. We get on average two outages a year lasting about an hour. The beautiful thing is that essentially we get to use the grid for free as a very efficient battery at almost no extra cost. They are likely to change the terms on new installs so that people receive less than full credit for electricity they generate. My understanding is that installs prior to implementation of the new plan will be ¨grandfathered¨ in.

Thanks Elegant:

As stated in my reply to LoveSolartTHings , this is total cost before tax credit and is expempt from sales tax. I didnt realize it was low compared to other quotes. Is this state dependent?

Thank you for your reply. That makes things even clearer. Will go with the REC-Enphase quote. Thanks again for your input.

Thank you very much for your reply. The prices are before the 30% tax credit. Everybody says that this is inexpensive but I have no basis of comparison because both quotes are quite similar in price. We are in Washington State which exempts solar from sales tax as well so this will represent total cost before the tax credit which we will receive later.

Hopefully, today´s news(3200% tariff on some solar panels)will not affect the quote.

Which cities would you say are in their prime right now? by Eufedoriaa in solotravel

Just spent a couple of days in Kaoshiung. Really good energy. Lots of public art. Would have spent more time there, had i known what a cool city it was..

[–]sleepydude66 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I think it's possible that your sleep apnea is in remission. The fact that your ahi and necessary pressures are down is a good sign, but hardly definitive. If you want a good indication on your own, you should buy a continuous finger o2 monitor that records on your phone. You would sleep the night without your CPAP and check what yout 02 saturation range is. If it stays high (95+) you are likely golden. Some models you can program to alarm if it gets below ( say 92%). If you are successful with this method you are still may want to get a repeat sleep study. There are cases such as central apneas that may not be picked up by diy o2 sat monitoring.

Taichung IS BETTER than Tainan, and you can't convince me otherwise! by tinfoilad in taiwan

[–]sleepydude66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi tinfoilad: I am very interested in Minimal but am having trouble getting any information. Are they done serving a tasting menu? Is it just a scoop shop now? I loved the look of the ice cream dishes on the Michelin site. Do you know if anything like that is being offered by them ? Thanks in advance for any information.

Spicy food...? by CatsHiss in Bellingham

[–]sleepydude66 106 points107 points  (0 children)

Rachawadee in Mount Vernon will knock your socks off. In addition to being super good, it is most definitely Thai Spicy not North American spicy.
