Oh and if you need to get away and find yourself in Wooster, im more then willing to sit at a bar (maybe the Nickel or the Nold) and listen. My door is always open.
I do feel bad for you, honestly. People have been in your shoes, and you will get past this. I was warned a long time ago by people that went to ATI 30 years ago... Watch out for them ATI girls. I have found this to be true myself.
I just cleaned my EBPV tube today and it was packed FULL. I got what i could with a small screwdriver then heated the tube, slowly, with a torch. I then blew it out with air. Worked great.
