[QUOTE="RobGMN, post: 8889472, member: 683408"] So you and Thxone both knwo better than even Dell Corp, who advertised a "Pentium PC". They obviously need education on the lingo of computers. The first Pentium (a "586") was considered high end when it came out. No, not correct. A tower tank is filled by a pump. If the pump cannot fill as fast as it is draining, it runs out. With all your knowledge, you were supposed to share the number of tower/tanks, their capacity, and the volume their pumps operate at (a common one being 1,000 GPM). The tower tanks are not filled by gravity. They are filled by pumping water up into the tank. You said there is a 36" feed line to the city from the reservoir. That's 17,000GPM of flow. How many tower/tanks are there, and what is the flow rate of the pumps filling them? If you don't know the data, how can you argue what happened? It matters because you have already stated a delivery of 17,000GPM to the city tanks. If that exceeds the capability of the pumps filling the tanks, then it's not a deficit of water from the reservoir that caused the shortage at the hydrants. You said you trust someone that you consider an insider, even if what they say seems dubious. That's how people get scammed. Look at how many people are already regretting trusting what Trump said, and voting for him. Are you and Thxone brothers? Google isn't a source of information. It's merely a roadmap that brings you to the information. You claim your sources are reliable, but keep them a secret. That tells me the sources are not reliable at all, and likely fabricated. Your ''first hand experience" carries no weight when you can't provide details, and keep falling back on a circular argument of simply claiming you are correct because you "work for the city". If you are so damn knoweldgable, simply answer my very basic questions regarding the city's water system. As a bigshot who speaks to the mayor daily, you should know the data. Google doesn't make me a surgeon. But if I read Gray's Anatomy and it says bones have nerves in them, I'm going to take that as more accurate than Thxone's claim that bones do not have nerves in them. Google doesn't make me an engineer, but if an engineer says a pump can push 1,000GPM into a tank 30 ft off the ground, I'm going to take that as more accurate than someone on a forum who claims otherwise and says "trust me dude" in support of their claim. You have pretty much never provided any information that supports your claims, and always seem to fall back on your personal expertise, age and wisdom, and your job as a city-whatever, in support of your arguments. Hell, when talking about the vaccine, you assured us that people were forced to accept the jab, because you said they were. Hell of an argument, there. So can you drop the "trust me dude" nonsense, and just answer the very simple questions that someone with your extensive power and knowledge of the city should know without having to ask a "fire chief"? What was/is the number of towers/tanks in the area of the fire? What is the capacity of the tanks? What was the capacity of the pumps feeding the tower tanks? What was the water level of the reservoir that was still in use (was it Hollywood Res, upper and lower)? How many hydrants were in use, and how many hoses were in use? How many pumpers were they filling and refilling? If you're going to argue that Newsom caused the drop in volume and pressure to the hydrants, these are all facts you should know, otherwise you are simply making shit up. Stop what? Questioning your ultimate authority and knowledge? No. Unlike you, if someone says something dubious I question it. I don't care if they are an "inside man" or not. Anyone can lie, even as an "insider". Ask the clients of Bernie Madoff. [/QUOTE]
