QED means "It is Demonstrated", not proven. In this case the quoted response demonstrates exactly the verity of the original statement. It proves nothing.

I said... To which you replied, in part... I respond: QED

That would be functionally identical, the basis for the very concept of fungibility. Functionally identical does not necessarily mean physically identical. The more special you think that you and your product might be, the more trouble you'll probably have dealing with the concept.

And after the debris was shoveled and the trees seen to how many of these fine new tree service companies remained in business? How many full time permanent positions that you attribute to a particular wind storm are still in existence? Having work to do, paid or not, is far different from...

No, it will create work. There's a large difference between a bit of work and creating a full time permanent job.

A straw man argument. Signs that say or indicate the same thing in the same way are functional identities. Yet Another straw man. Signs that say or indicate the same thing in the same way are functional identities. Going off into a frenzy of rationalization about just how special you...

True, but in order for the eye to pass over you the entire storm must also pass over you. You get to experience the entire thing from one edge to the other. The wind blows and it rains for a while from one direction, the eye passes over, then the wind blows and it rains for a while from the...

Exactly so. The media always desperately hopes that any hurricane will be a major event and they seem to have great expectations for this one. Admittedly my hurricane experience was with exactly one hurricane the center of which passed right over us, some years ago on the Mississippi gulf...

I have to print a photo, maybe 18" square or so, on some kind of fabric that will be sewn into a memorial quilt. The only thing I have around the shop is some canvas from LexJet which is way too heavy, some PhotoTex which won't work, and some TruColor Flag material which is way too light, too...

Nonsense. The blade is turning into the top of the material trying to push it down on the table not throw it back in your face. Trying to rip on a radial arm saw is where you might get a face full of material since the blade is turning backwards relative to a table saw, trying to lift the...

When cutting sheet goods all of the clamp-on saw guides, each with their own clever name, are but a pale and marginal substitute for a proper table saw or panel saw. If you're going to run a sign shop at a minimum you'll need a panel saw or a table saw, a table saw being less handy for sheet...

I assume that you're doing a contour cut. I further assume that your plotter is a rebranded Graphtec. Regardless of manufacturer you need to perform the sensor offset adjustment. This calibrates the X and Y distances between the sensor and the blade. If this is not properly set you will get...

Just pop for Rapid-Tac or a similar product and leave your Jr. Science Guy chemistry set on the shelf. If you're using enough application fluid that it makes it a noteworthy expense, you're using too much. Perhaps you might perfect your dry technique which, if you do, is superior in all ways...

Read your copy aloud and adjust the volume of your voice to correspond with the size and weight of each text element. In your original design you're saying... "SPENCER COUNTY HOSPICE 649-9151". Perhaps you might want to arrange thing such that you're saying.. "SPENCER COUNTY HOSPICE...

"creative ways to help" seems to be a euphemism for telling someone just how wonderful they and their product might be when, in fact, it's dreck. My lack of interest in "creative ways to help" approaches total. I do not always have something harsh to say. Most of the time I say nothing at...

Been there, perhaps dating back to before you were born. There was a time, way back, when I used to be somewhat connected to that sort of activity. It was, and no doubt still is, about as exciting as watching a haircut. A bunch of machines, some of which resemble parade floats from Mars...

Even if the text were not an incomprehensible mess, which it is, this looks no different than most any T shirt created by any air brush jockey at any car show. Not only is it about as unique as a head cold, the illustration appears to be a helmeted creature piloting some sort of industrial duct...

One of those things that's possible but not a Good Idea unless you have an endless supply of blades. The blade is meant to cut vinyl and other reasonably homogenous materials with just the tip of the blade. Paper is one of the most abrasive substances extant and will eat the tip right off a...

One might suppose that in your village 'constructive criticism' is something at at once confirms what a wonderful thing you've manage to produce and makes gentle suggestions at to just what might make it even more marvelous. That's the typical mindset of 'constructive criticism' whiners. Perhaps...

There are many ways to set this up to be "clean, simple, and clinical" without making it look like a No Parking sign. The box, interrupted as it is, is a distraction and an eyesore. The 3x3 turning into 33, even if anyone on the planet besides some other chiropractic shaman might know that, is...
