Below is an excerpt of a conversation I had with Larry Gelin, my twin brother, who now works for Price Industries.
Me: “Larry, we should have a class about coils and fan coils!”
Larry: “3 things for you, bro.
- You’re stupid.
- Mom loves me more.
- That would be the most boring class ever”
Me: “Oh, our customers are going to love it. There’s a bunch of MSOE nerds in our territory, and they love boring stuff.”
Larry: “That’s a really dumb reason.”
Me: “I’m doing it anyway.”
Larry: “Fine.”

Of course, a little exaggeration here. It is going to be interesting, or I wouldn’t have the class.
And nothing is more satisfying to me than proving Larry wrong.
No, he’s not speaking. (Thank goodness.)
See you in class!
