For those of you new to this forum, or not familiar with Ted Lea, he makes his living selling pond aeration equipment, consulting services...
Noticeably absent from this and many other knowledgeable posts from Ted, and others pros, is any solicitation for business. On the contrary, he possibly saved Cecil a hundred bucks on a pump, as well as providing pertinent information on where to source it.
Remarkably this forum is filled with information, unselfishly contributed by profesionals, soley for the benefit of me(ignorant masses). Was going to say "us", but didn't want to include everyone in the "ignorant masses" category. Even though most of you are.
Thanks to all!
