In 1981 when this building was built, the geothermal air
conditioning unit was installed. Outside air is brought in through
three sets of short concrete towers. Then runs through three foot
diameter pipes buried underground filled half full of limestone.
Giant fans inside the building pull the cool air in to cool the
building. This was the first commercial geothermal cooling system
in the United States. It kept the building as cool as air
conditioning until due to less than perfect construction, the
tunnels partially caved in. They still use this system but
supplement it with modern day air conditioning units. This is a
very nice place to work .We make rubber and teflon partss for many
applications. From fire hydrant gaskets to brake seals for NASCAR
to parts for Nike sippy bottles and even parts for Maytag washers.
Cache is a rectangular tupperware container with room for small
travelbugs and small trade items. It contains swag items, a log,
and pencils. First to find recieves their choice between a limited
edition Thomas Tshirt along or a book of free french
fries.Yummy!!
