Racist comments are uncalled for. Keep it to yourself.

Here's an audio recording of a customer call with Verizon. The customer had
been quoted a rate of 0.002 cents per kilobyte but was actually charged
$0.002. Not only the customer service rep but the supervisor claims not to
see a difference between those two concepts.

So who on here was touting Verizon as a good service provider again? Whoever
it was just got an education.

Hello All:

I want to remove the knob that moves my pop-up plug for the drain up
and down.

I tried to pull this knob but it is not moving. I looked around for a
set screw. There is none.

I have photos of the knob at:

http://cid-eb85de77506ba8ba.skydrive.live.com/browse.aspx/BathTub?authkey=Y9O!9fLQTTI%24

Is there any trick to removing this type of knob?

I need to remove it to open the clogged drain.

Thanks!

Deguza

Hopefully it covers the part of the world you want to call. Let us
know what you think of it.
