Re: Devcon Buys Out Coastal Security, Adelphia, & Guardian

["Crash Gordon" <webmaster@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You truly are a freekin' idiot arent  ya.
I've sold, installed and serviced more alarms than you have ever even
seen...abt 5000 I'd venture a conservative guess.

Smokes are life/safety and not property saving devices (although they may
serve that function)

And you must be the one smoking crack as you're not responding to what I
said, rather someone else's post.

| My goodness.  That first sentence makes me think you are definitely
| smoking more than weed.  Are you sure your monicker isn't "Crack
| Gordon"?
|
| You said,
|
| "System Smokes aren't there to protect property".
|
| Ok, dumbo.  I'm game.  What in the hell are they for?  ANY smoke
| detector can wake someone up to get them out of the house.
|
| You said,
|
| "....A well designed _monitored_ *system* will provide early

|
| Isn't a home property?  You just contradicted yourself twice in the
| same paragraph.  I guess I will believe EVERYTHING YOU EVER SAY FROM
| NOW ON.
|
| Stay a tech, if you fumble over words this bad, you'd never cut it as a
| salesman.
|
| Also, for your information, I sold more smoke detectors probably than
| anyone in Resi Resale.  Why?  ADT wanted us to learn to program simple
| conversions so that they didn't have to send a truck out.  It would
| have saved ADT money, and I wouldn't have to charge the customer for
| the trip charge.  The only exception was if the customer had a smoke
| detector.  ADT didn't want us trying to program the system if they had
| one, for liability reasons.  I figured it was another $100.00 for ADSC,
| and $2 - 4 a month in additional ANSC if I sold them one.  I believe IF
| you are going to have a monitored security system, then DEFINITELY have
| at least one smoke/heat detector.  Why?  Because in Florida a lot of
| residents take a lot of out of town trips.  If they are away, the
| noisemaker in regular smoke detectors won't do them any good.  They
| need them for when they are away.
|
| But, that doesn't excuse your ignorance.
