I was driving through Chicago a couple weeks ago in the midle of the night and I saw all kinds of x-ray trucks at the hotels. I didn't really know there was much work there, but there sure were allot of trucks. I was dozing off (actually I was driving for an unknown amount of time with my chin on... -
Hey Slick, I would agree that the dial may not be accurate. That's ok though, if it's too hot, turn it down, if its cold turn it up.

Hey dan, that's funny, I'm in Wellington right now. I'm working on my bed here in town. Yeah, I ride bareback. That's why I came west from TN.
