Fans, Fans, Fans
A company called SMC, seems to have a monopoly on all of the Ceiling Fans in Africa. This picture illustrates the fans in the Cultural Hall and Chapel of the Church we attend. Click on the picture to enlarge it and count the fans. During our Clean-Up project this morning, Pres Dyreng was commenting on the amazing engineering that goes into these fans. They are self contained. To install them, all you do is hang them on a hook, connect the electrical and your are set to go. They are so perfectly balanced that they never vibrate or make noise. All you hear is the air they move. In the Chapel of this building there are 15 of the SMC fans and 4 more conventional fans, two on each side of the rostrum area. When they are all going, it makes it hard for Elder Krupp, with his hearing aids to hear, but it is the only possible way to keep semi-comfortable in the heat.
The reason I said the SMC company must have a monopoly is because we see them in every building we go into. We see them in stores, commercial buildings, banks, government buildings. They were even in the Nigerian Post Office. There was no power so none were moving, but they were there.
