Spooky, pitch-black, and entirely silent basement. Roof access took a second to find.

Gotta get you a respirator because there's a lot of asbestos in this hobby. I regret not wearing one more often.
sometimes those are the best spots
Lol I never heard this one. Touché.
Ugh. Yeah.. I really fucking wish I had been more cautious when I was starting out. I'm still not as careful as I should be and rarely bring a mask. But I keep a good one in my vehicle now so at least there's that.. But, for example: At the Harlem Valley State Hospital in New York, they had unused boxes of asbestos panels sitting around in a basement. We used some of the pieces as stepping stones over the flooded parts to avoid getting our boots wet..Whitepanther wrote: ↑Sun Mar 24, 2024 1:10 amLol I never heard this one. Touché.
Not trying to be Mr. Scientist here but because I had it drilled into my head in school I’ll pass along that it takes only one spore of asbestos to the lungs to contract asbestosis. A teacher of mine had it and it’s a miserable fate. He couldn’t sleep lying down. Had to prop pillows on the floor by the couch and sleep on his knees with arms on the seat of the couch. I’m not gonna pretend I don’t chance it now and then because the reality is asbestos isn’t just insulation. They put that crap in literally everything from plaster to drywall to concrete to etc etc as a filler material at one point.
The Wolfner Memorial Library for the Blind at 3842 Olive St. In satellite view it looks to be completely renovated now as part of a large site.

Our entrance was thru a basement window straight into a utility room full of asbestos wrapped pipes. Stepped on one pipe to get in and out, avoided the rest like it was laser security.
