What to expect in Boston

I am going to Boston on June 28, 2018 through July 2nd, 2018. Here are some general expectations to have:
  • Expect me NOT TO BE ON YOUTUBE AT ALL from June 29 to July 1st. This is because I will be busy focusing on the congressional convention hosted by the National Academy for future scientists and technologists & I cannot have any distractions. I will keep texting my frirnds to a minimum as well during the convention.
    • This means I CAN BE on YouTube at different times of the day on June 28 & July 2nd. And I will film the lift in my hotel at LEAST ONCE before or after the convention is over.
  • Expect me to film my first lift in Boston. It will be 4 stories tall, and it WILL be hydraulic. I know this for a fact because the hotel I'm staying at appears to have been built in the 1980s or 1990s, so I expect to find something nice, epic and vintage (possibly a Westinghouse or Schindler RT) while I'm staying at the hotel in Boston, not something dull and modern crap like a Schindler hydraulic from the 2010s. I will either use my Android or my Sony Handycam, whichever I feel more comfortable using. If the lift has been modernized, I will only film it once depending on how much I liked it on my first ride. If it hasn't been modernized, but the phone has been updated to be compliant with modern standards, then I will consider filming the lift as many times as my time allotment gives me to do.
  • Expect me to have a blog post ready by 2315 on July 2nd. This means that the second I get home, I am running to my PC "hornrt PC" and I am writing a thorough blog post as quickly as I possibly could about the lift(s) I was able to ride and / or film and / or take pictures of in Boston. The blog post will be ready either by 2315 PM on July 2nd, or by 1715 PM on July 3rd.
  • DO NOT expect Boston to have a placement on the Charlotte Kingdom until March 2019. I need a lot more time to think about what effect Boston will have on the Charlotte Kingdom. Worst Case Scenario, Boston will be the first actual city to fall below Secaucus's ranking at 32nd place. However, the worst lifts aren't too bad as most of them are DC-powered traction (DC is usually more epic than VF due to jolty pulsing), if not hydraulic and have Monitor HPS, which is tolerable in comparison to EPCO SSL "SSLOPPY".
  • Expect me to plan follow-up trips to Boston to open an empty placement on the Charlotte Kingdom. If Boston goes on the Charlotte Kingdom by March 1st, then that means the following will happen:
    • Atlantic City will move down to 32nd place.
    • Secaucus will move down to 33rd place.
    • Elizabeth will move down to 34th place.
    • IF Clinton Township DOES HAVE A PLACEMENT ON THE CHARLOTTE KINGDOM BY MARCH 2018, that means it will move down to 35th place.

Found the source of the problems with my PC

I am proud to finally tell y’all that I believe I have found a definite source of the problems I have been experiencing with my Windows PC over the past few days. It was because of a faulty Windows 10 preview update which was affecting the Windows 10 Recovery Environment. Luckily, I have found a trustworthy program (free of malware) which I could use to debug errors in my PC at any time, minor or major. Luckily,  none of the problems I am experiencing with my PC right now are  anywhere close to what’s happened when I tried to fix windows PC’s in the past. I am still taking  every precaution possible to further decrease the chance of my Windows PC breaking down or crashing. As a matter of fact, my PC almost crashed  this morning , but luckily, I was able to hard-restart the PC to get it working again by holding the power button down for 15-20 seconds. Luckily,  none of the problems I am experiencing with my PC right now are  anywhere close to what’s h...

LIFT FILMING AGENDA UPDATE 1.25.2019 & WILL CHICAGO BE CROWNED THE NEW KING?

Chicago holds a high possibility of being crowned first place . What if I told you that Chicago has some rare and exotic lifts that you probably won’t find in many other places in the U.S.? That is an existence a lift filmer will be delighted with when they go to the city of Chicago. My four figures of reference were: WI Sirens and Elevators Elevators of Lake County CHI Elevators Windy City Elevators Because I have found so many outstanding Montgomery, Dover, SchindlerHaughton, Westinghouse and KONE lifts throughout the city of Chicago, it wouldn’t be sensible for me to write it all under one big blog post, because it would be a big waste of time for me to go into big, elaborate detail on what made each lift stand out. What I found on YouTube in terms of Chicago lifts Mitsubishi and Fujitec These lift filmers have walked around the city of Chicago filming some super nice lifts, and in the process of watching YouTube videos over the past few months, I have found that Ch...

QUICK RUNDOWN OF THE NORMAL BEHAVIOR OF A 700A

Tallest 700A’s I have been on Arguably, at 20 stories, these have been the tallest Schindler 700A’s I have EVER been on, and the first I’ve been on in a hotel. However, I have noticed some interesting characteristics of the Schindler 700A in mid to high rise applications. Epic lifts indeed To start off, these lifts had absolutely incredible acceleration, deceleration and leveling. They take off like rockets and travel at a mindblowing speed of 120 meters per minute, despite serving a travel distance of 55-60 meters. The deceleration is similar to the Schindler 700A’s at the Nordstrom store at the Mall at Short Hills, as it smoothly phases into its full deceleration mode. In terms of character, these lifts do tend to make a little bit of noise and shake on the way up and down the tower. Car 3 makes a very loud screeching noise as it accelerates towards level 17 going down, which I find to make the ride even more fun. These lifts were installed in 1993, which gives them even more 199...
