    MR> A good thing happened already though. I was getting ready for bed last   
    MR> nightand I noticed several times lately ( which is what was making me   
    MR> worry ) Ilooked at the basement as it was raining and had about 1/2   
    MR> inch of wateralready and I said, Dang, the storm has not even started.   
    MR> I went down, andlooked to see where it was coming from and could not   
    MR> pinpoint it. I went overto the crock to see how a new sump pump I put   
    MR> in a year or so ago, was doingand the whole crock was full. No wonder   
    MR> I was getting this minor floodingalready. I whacked the tube a couple   
    MR> of times and the pump kicked in. Whew! itran heavily for about an hour   
    MR> and the water receded. This whole time the minorwetness in the basement   
    MR> was because the pump was not working. So I am a bitrelieved about that   
      
   Good catch.  :)   
      
    MR> now, and this is something I should have realized before,but the wet   
    MR> was so minor until Yesterday, so it was a bad thing turned good. Ifeel   
    MR> a little bit more confident, I will not have to call the fire dept.   
    MR> aslong as we keep power. .    
      
   Here's hoping!  :)  We don't need a sump here, fortunately...  :)
