Lee – I just read your reply & I had to laugh! Our well & septic is a total mystery to us. No one knows where our septic tank is located for this house. It’s a concern for us, and is on our list of things to work on. Our actual well is from the 1800’s, but at some time was re-plumbed, and needs to be re-done again.

Wow, I didn’t realize that about Britannica. I can access it for free online so I use it fairly often. I like Wikipedia for its broad coverage, but I’m usually somewhat skeptical.

I never synchronicity meant anything. I thought it was just the cool-sounding name a Police album.

Lynn — I know what you mean. We are insulated from a certain number of failures by not having any working appliances, heating, or electrical wiring that wasn’t recently installed. The plumbing is all original though, and the well really worries me. It’s this big badly wired / badly plumbed mystery underground. I’m hoping we can get the plumbing and wiring to it updated before it decides to fail.

Rachael — Actually, a study from a few years ago found that Wikipedia had about as many mistakes as the Encyclopedia Brittannica. It’s also just plain convenient–decent overviews of just about anything.

So is Wikipedia a reliable reference or just convenient? Or something in between?

Ok, this is getting spooky!!! I wonder if an old house down my street is quantumly entangled with mine… I’ll have to ask the neighbors what they’ve been working on.

I hate how things just seem to go “out” with these old houses…we can’t predict what’s going to happen next, but something just stops working, and we have to go fix it. As if the house is saying, “Ah-ha – take this! Oh, you think that was simple, then deal with this…”
