Thank you for your recent posts. I was hoping you would come on the forum and tell us what you think.

I am thinking about going to that class at the LifelongLearning College. We are trying to decide what to do..yes, no, copper, not aluminum, etc. Our neighbors owned a large electrical business in a northern city and he had copper rods installed.
