Well...I don't know what kind of a house this is. You have beams to move stuff, both up and down, you have a machine shop with heavy gear and some of that gear needs to be moved to the basement. Or is the shop in the basement and some gear has to be moved upstairs? I mean, what the hell kind of a show are you running there, Rich? I thought you build software. Why are you futzing with beams and 700 pound machines? Something's not right.
