RI Fire, and acoustical foam - fire safety
Erik Squires
There was an interesting article in teh Boston Globe today that I wished to
share with you.
The fire this past month in RI was caused by the ignition of cheap egg crate
style foam, normally used in packing electronics and other fragile devices.
The material was purchased from a foam company which sells mostly if not all
to packing companies, which explains why it was not rated for fire
protection.
It was called "solid gasoline", because in it's common form, it ignites and
goes up in seconds, sending flames and poisonous gas everywhere.
Not only was this material not rated for acoustial efficacy, it was also a
major fire hazard. I'm sure many of you in this geographical area have seen
the video clips of the large foam courtain completely catching fire in a
matter of seconds.
So, please, check that any foam that you buy has been fire rated. Melamine
foam has the best fire rating, but is also twice as expensive. However, it
doesn't catch fire, and doesn't produce poisonous gases. According to the
article, it just turns to ash.
When I have some money, I'm going to replace my listening room with the
Melamine version of RPG's Studio in a Box.
I'm not saying by the way that anyone should or should not be held
acountable. I'm just saying that this is an example of a hazard we may not
have paid attention to before, and I hope you do.
Best Regards,
Erik

cheap stuff as "solid gasoline."

And, using this knowledge, bought the cheapest crap foam from THE SAME
COMPANY and tacked it up on the wall of the club.
This asshole is going to jail. Stupid fucking armenians.

What has his ethnicity to do with it?

True enough, but I wanted to see a justification. I always wonder what
people who make posts like this are thinking. What will their grandkids
think 30 years from now when they do a web search on grandpop and find
such proferred opinions? Pride?

Nothing. It's a forgery by Brian L. McCarty.

Why would Brian think a forger sitting in a $20K condo by the Coral Sea has
credibility?
If you think it's true, Brian, say it as yourself.
Of course, I'll be there to set the record straight on who you are, what you
are, and why your twisted mind actually appears to enjoy being disliked.
Brian, you could have had it all. You made a big score, and let it all leak
away. Your "friends" hate you. Jeff Wexler won't talk to you. There may
still be a world of opportunity for you somewhere, but thousands of people
read what you do here. Do you expect them to walk in the door, even if you
manage to cobble together a tiny one-room version of Coral Sea Studios? You
can't be a world-reknowned psychotic weirdo, and expect people to want to do
business with you.
Every time you post here, Brian, is a nail in your coffin. I hope you don't
take it out on your wife and kids. Do you hit her? Do you yell at your son
or deny him your affection? These are terrible things, Brian.
If there were any truth to it, one would wonder why McCarty would feel
compelled to forge it in my name.
Simply a LIE from Brian L. McCarty, r.a.m.'s notorious identity thief, liar,
swindler, scammer, and ne'erdowell.
It's an odd symptom of McCarty's sickly mind.
At the same time he's trying to grow his tiny (or nonexistent!) studio
business, Green Dolphin Media, he forges slanderous lies which make him
immensely unpopular.
Will he ever figure out that he's destroying himself? I doubt it.
Brian L McCarty, R.A.M'.S NOTORIOUS LIAR, lives above the shop of his
nonexistent studio at:
Green Dolphin Media
65 Vasey Esplanade
Cairns QLD 4870
worl...@ozemail.com.au
where he maintains an empty website full of never-to-be-fullfilled promises,
http://www.coralseastudios.com and http://www.worldjazz.com
McCarty has just redone his website, removing the egregious false
endorsements.
He still keeps the nonexistent "David C. L. Feng " as "Asian Market
Coordinator", somehow believing that Asians prefer not to deal with a fat
caucasian.
However,
Maybe Mr. Brian "Enron" L. McCarty can explain what happened to the $270,000
he owes
his employees?
