I Really liked this article. Good writing.

I recently moved to ABQ from SE Virginia. While moving in, the movers asked what a piece was. I said “that’s a dehumidifier.” They said they never heard of that. They are ubiquitous and a necessary piece of equipment in the summer in the SE.

Will I have any use for it here at all? Or should I just get of it? I had just bought it before being told I was moving and it is brand new in box. I didn’t think ahead to the fact I was going to the desert because I had too many other things going on at time. Thoughts?

Now I know why it bombed. You were relating dehumidifiers to what we call refrigerated systems (vapor compression -sealed system). The swamp coolers that are a bit more common here are simple evaporative coolers that don’t recover the water and that threw us for a moment. It was a great workshop and the message came across loud and clear – you did a good job with the physics of it all.
I think Walter White may have a refrigerated system, you don’t see the tell tale swamp cooler on the roof of his house like all the other houses on the block.
By the way, I thought you broke your leg mountain bike rappelling on the Sandia Mountains?
