Geocode? Sumdangdik is living someplace in the milky way galaxy. More like Planetcode, Sumdangdik happens to be living on planet Earth for the time being. Geocode is, "Planet Earth someplace".

My Heat Pump
Visiting The beach during spring break would be nice, but sumdangdik went there during the hot summer time. The beach is a place where people leave the air conditioning on all the time. Each motel room door has these words printed in large letters, "If you are leaving the room, please leave the air conditioning on!".
Traveling on business expense to The beach could be a fun experience. After a late arrival on a coast-to-coast flight, sumdangdik simply wanted to sleep soon because there would be a business meeting early the next morning. The motel room was nice, for The beach, and the only thing that kept him from sleeping was a tap-tap-tap noise and occasionally a loud bang! These noises were coming from the heat pump. That heat pump was running in it's air-conditioning mode. The Advert for the motel had read, "All New Air Conditioners!".
Sumdangdik turned his heat pump off, and after awhile the tapping and banging stopped happening in his room. He could still hear the neighbors' heat pumps tapping and banging. The room quickly became hot and stuffy so he turned the heat pump a.k.a. air conditioner back on and then drifted off to sleep.
Bang! Went the heat pump. Jump! Out of bed went sumdangdik, ready to fight off the intruder! But there wasn't any intruder, only the heat pump going, bang! Sumdangdik tried again to apply some percussive maintenance to the heat pump, moving it up and down and side to side a little bit. The heat pump fell out of the window. Sumdangdik stuck his head out the window and looked down at the heat pump, which landed in some bushes between the motel and the swimming pool. Well, he said to himself, we had better fix that.
The swimming pool was full of children laughing and playing. They didn't seem to notice as sumdangdik waded into the bushes looking for the heat pump to his room. There were two or three heat pumps down there, so he looked up at his room, which was on the second floor, to make sure that he got the right heat pump. Another heat pump which had fallen from the third floor, had a little dent in one corner. A friendly fellow, who had dark circles under his eyes, helped sumdangdik to carry the heat pump back upstairs to the second floor.
Since sumdangdik is supposed to be able to repair anything, he was self-challenged to figure out, what could be wrong with a brand new heat pump? He walked away from his room, down the hall to a vending machine. He bought a soft drink from the vending machine that was sitting next to some large, empty (chlorofluorocarbon) refrigerant tanks. Seeing this, he realized that the heat pumps had been shipped to The beach empty, sat in the humid air, and then were filled with refrigerant.
He made a theory that the heat pump had some water inside the piping and since it runs all the time, this water had frozen to become ice and the plug of ice inside the plumbing was preventing the heat pump from working properly. Though it seems counter intuitive (that is, stupid), sumdangdik decided to run the heat pump in heat mode for awhile. In science fiction parlance that means, "Reverse polarity of the neutron flow." In the hot summer that means the room becomes unbearably hot. The motel room got hotter and hotter, until finally after twenty minutes of heating and banging, the heat pump made a whooshing sound instead of a tap or a bang, then it settled down to making happy machine noises such as burble and fizz. Inside of the piping, the ice had melted and was moving toward the receiver-dryer assembly. The RCDR (receiver-dryer) assembly could then capture and hold the water. No more ice, hence no more banging.
He turned the heat pump heat mode off for ten minutes, then turned it back on, to the air conditioning mode. Cold air flowed out silently, and sumdangdik soon lay down on the bed and began sleeping once again.
Bang! This time it was a knock on the door. Outside was the friendly fellow again, who had dark circles under his eyes, and he was carrying a heat pump which had a little dent in one corner because it had fallen from the third floor. His small children spoke up saying, "How come your air conditioner isn't making any noise? That's not fair! We want it! We want your air conditioner!" Those children had been playing in the pool. They were wearing swimsuits.
Sumdangdik explained about the moisture from humidity, the possibility that ice had formed inside the system, and how to reverse polarity of the refrigerant flow using heat mode. The friendly fellow remarked that he would try it, and towed his children away from sumdangdik's door.
Other neighbors had opened their doors a little and had been listening in, and one or the other spouse in each room nearby decided to try heat mode for awhile. Sumdangdik soon heard the neighbors arguing about why the heat was on? Don't you know how hot it is in here? I have already been swimming all day! And the other spouse would reply that it worked for him (sumdangdik) and this idea certainly was worth a try. Sumdangdik could hear the neighbors talking about the situation. He could understand that those people on vacation were more than disappointed with the fact that the air conditioner didn't seem to work.
The same argument was repeated several times in the rooms all around, until finally an hour later all of the neighbors had tried this technique and it had worked! Including the dented heat pump on the third floor, it still worked too. No harm, no foul. Most everyone got aquainted as neighbors because of needing to have the door open while the heater was running in heat mode, everyone could hear about everybody else's vacation gripes and those children visited absolutely every open room in the motel. Eventually all of the heaters were running in air conditioning mode and all the doors were closed again. By this time it was about one-thirty in the morning, and sumdangdik finally got to sleep around two.

My Fahrgate System Is Not A Toy
Sung to the tune of "A Secretary Is Not A Toy"
From a musical: How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying.original song copyright previous century 1952 (somebody!)
[MR. HAT]
Gentlemen! Boys and Girls!
A fahrgate system is not a toy,
No my boy;
Not a toy to invade and destroy,
And playfully dial
In search of some feral joy.
No, a fahrgate system is not,
Definitely not a toy.
[3 MALES]
You're absolutely right, Mr. Hat!
We wouldn't have any other way, Mr. Hat!
It's the Air Force's rule, Mr. Hat!
[MALE ENSEMBLE]
A fahrgate system is not a toy,
No my boy,
not a toy.
So do not step through it for joy,
[FEMALE ENSEMBLE]
A fahrgate system is not to be
Used for play therapy.
[CLASSROOM]
Be good to the gate you employ,
An' disassemble it not
Alien trouble you've got,
A fahrgate system is not ...a toy.
Be careful with our DHD
Component of operation unity...
A fine and sensitive mechanism
To serve the fahrgate community
Use a touchstone at home
We supports
[MR HAND]
And you'll find nothing like it at F.A.O. Schwartz!
[KYLE]
A fahrgate system is not a pet,
Alien erector set.
[MR HAND & KYLE ]
It happened to Leonard McCoy, boy!
They fired him a shot
The day the fellow forgot
A fahrgate system is not... A toy!
[CLASSROOM]
(Whistling)
A fahrgate system is not...A toy!
And when you put it to use,
The nerve,
It will put you to use:
[MR HAND]
That you will find the name Lionel
On your caboose!
[FEMALE ENSEMBLE]
A fahrgate system is not a thing
One buy key, hold by string
Keypad...
Is to type in,
And not put the hype in
If that's what you plan to enjoy.
No!
[CLASSROOM]
The fahrgate system you got,
Is definitely not
Supposed to do a whole lot,
Or you know what,
Before you step through, oy!
Remember this my boy,
A fahrgate system is not,
A tinker toy!

My Furry Bat_Part 3
Man5: "We would also like to keep the press away, for now. Nope, no dead bodies as of yet." [Man5 is talking to the sheriff on the telephone. He is seated in the GIV and he has started the engine of the GIV. Man4 and Woman3 are poking at the wreckage of the Victorian Mansion which is mostly a pile of lumber with a front porch. The sun is fully up and the landscape is well lit. Man5 finishes his phone call and climbs partway out of the GIV.]
Man5: (To Man4 and Woman3) "Hey stop that. I've got a man lift on the way."
Woman3: "We can't stand here and do nothing."
Man 4: "An all-terrain man lift?"
Man5: "You two are only making matters worse. We need to check the fireplace before deciding how to proceed. And yes, an all-terrain man lift."
[A piece of wood wiggles in the wreckage.]
Man2: (His voice emanating from the GIV dashboard console) "Hey, do you see this piece of wood I'M moving? Remove this one, it is not attached to anything."
Man5: (Climbs back in to the GIV, now speaking to the GIV dashboard console) "Do you think that's wise?"
Man2: (voice) "Yes, we've got to get some air in here. Woman1 is choking. (cough cough) Have you got it on your end? I am pushing the board out (wheeze)."
[Woman3 uses her board to sort of lift and move the board that Man2 is pushing. Man4 tries to assist by poking and lifting with his board. Woman3 and Man4 are each using a second class lever, so the lifting is difficult. Finally, the moving board put aside, we can see Man2 inside through the resultant opening. We can also see some type of note attached to the moving board.]
Man4: "Hey, there's a note!"
Man5: "Let me see it. I will scan it into the console." [Man5 stares levelly at Man4] "Before something happens to it!"
Man4: (sheepish) "Okay, okay. [Hands Man5 the note.]
[Inside the GIV, Man5 and GIV Console scan the note into computer memory. Man5 is reading the note.]
[Near the wreckage Man4 looks in at Man2. Man2 appears to be aggrieved since Man4 already read the note, Man2 can only nod silently. Man1 cones to the opening and says to Man4] Man1: "Vid… Vid… (cough) Video playback. Look at it!"
Man4: "That isn't important right now. We've got to get you out!"
Man1: "We did something wrong! Released something! It was trapped here, and now it's out there!"
Man4: "You fellows are in danger, first I've got to…"
Man1: "It flew out. It flies, whatsoever it is. First you've got to review the video. What was it? What if it's dangerous to humans? What if it comes back? What if it comes back and bites you? We might be safer in here! (cough )" [Man1 is distraught and has a hard time forming words. He looks away from the opening to see Man2 bringing Woman1 over to the opening so that she can breathe some air.]
[Woman3 brings her rucksack and opens it to reveal some plastic water bottles. Woman1 can see this and she almost cries.] Woman3: "Catch!" [she tosses a bottle of water toward the opening.]
Man2: [Catches bottle of water, then promptly loses his composure] "WATER!" [Regains composure] "Oops, I mean have some water, Woman1." [Man2 has a hard time with sharing, but Woman1 gives him that starving puppy look so he gives her the water].
[Woman1 rinses her mouth and spits out some mud (it was dust), then rinses again, and soon she is gulping down the entire bottle of water.]
Man1 and Man2: [To Woman3] "More water please!"
[Woman3 is happy to be doing something positive and she manages to smile a little. After all, she didn't read the note. She lobs another bottle of water toward the opening.]
Man4: [standing next to the GIV while looking all around, nervously] "Man1 says that something flew out of the building. He is worried that it, whatsoever it is, might be dangerous to us."
Man5: [Rolls up the window of the GIV most of the way] "What does he suggest?"
Man4: "That we should review the surveillance video and try to figure out what it was. Or is." [Man4 continues looking all around.] "If it wasn't a ghost then it is probably hungry."
Man5: "Okay, I'll rewind the video a little. You stand guard!".
[Man5 puts the video in reverse as he watches the TV display on the GIV dashboard console, the building seems to un-collapse, then the ghost chasers can be seen walking backwards toward the GIV. Man5 puts the in forward mode and it isn't long before he sees it.]
[Video Footage shows a flying creature actually landed on the hood of the GIV, directly in front of the surveillance camera. It looks kind of like a bat, and it has sharp fangs and claws sticking out from it's brown fur. The furry bat would be kind of cute without the fangs and claws. In the video, the bat preens a little and shows off, perhaps it was viewing it's own reflection in the GIV windshield. The bat seems to have stripes in a mottled appearance, something like a deeply knitted scarf. It is all the same color but the deep texture causes a bunch of darker shadows which resemble zebra stripes if light brown and dark brown.]
Man5: "Oh, oh, oh! That is something… unexpected."
Man4: "What, what is it?" [Man4 looks through the window of the GIV to see the video display.]
Man5: "It looks like… a brown, zebra stripe bat."
Man4: "Let's hope it isn't a vampire bat."
Man5: [freeze video frame of furry bat showing it's fangs as threat display] "Actually, I think it is a vampire bat."

Sung to the tune of "I Predict" by SparksOriginal song copyright 1982 (Repertoire
You're gonna take a walk through the gate

They're gonna bind a girl with a man
And the touchstone don't care

Chloe will prove that Eli and her
Had a fleeting affair

Touchstones fix your affairs
Fahrgate is safe
Ain't gonna shake
Ain't gonna break

Everybody's gonna die
Should have watched Doctor Who
We know the food is old
Eyeball casserole, we found in the hold
Luciens will jump to France
They'll do the Eyeball Dance
Don't worry, it'll work out
Mallozzi will throw them out
They're gonna stop seeding the gate
So you better jump through now

They're gonna stop grabbing the sun
So you better get tan now

(Eye predict)
They're gonna stop grabbing the sun
So you better get tan now
(Eye predict)
SGU will fade out
SGU will fade out
SGU will fade out

My Furry Bat_Part 2
The next day, another team of ghost chasers is approaching the GIV, Ghost Intercept Vehicle. Conventional authorities have brought the ghost chasers support team to this location, because the GIV BaaJack has been activated. The GIV is dark, cold, and silent. Sheriff squidbilly defers to the ghost chasers support team, who are allowed to go along the swamp as they wish. Sheriff squidbilly is preparing body bags for the ghost chasers team, whom were presumed dead (already) as soon as they entered the swamp! It comes as no surprise to the sheriff, that these "adventure seekers" have had enough adventure for awhile. He, and we, have more sense than to go wandering into a haunted swamp.
Sheriff squidbilly expects that the ghost chasers support team will find a bunch of dead ghost chasers, or perhaps a really fat alligator who just now ate a ghost chaser. Tastes like chicken. Hence the need for all these body bags. Those ghost chasers are sure to be dead by now. There they go, into the swamp! The stellar sun is rising, giving subtle tones to the darkness. Those ghost chasers had disappeared well before sunset the previous day. These ghost chasers support people are following a trail of the presumed-dead.
A subtle beep-beep-beep emanates from the GIV GPS console. The on-board display reads, "battery low" in big red letters. Beep, Beep, "battery low, battery low". Man4 notices the display briefly, from outside of the GIV. He nods to his comrades. The ghost chasers support team is communicating with non-verbal signals only. Man4 looks at the GIV more closely, inside and out. No sign of life whatsoever. Not down below…
[Man4 looks underneath the GIV. Ghost chasers support team members, man5 and woman3, shine some flashlight beams underneath the GIV, Ghost Intercept Vehicle ]. Man4: "Clear!"
[Man4 follows the power supply cable from the GIV (undamaged) to a pile of debris (the Victorian Mansion, or the remains there whereof). Man5 and woman3 shift their flashlight beams to the top of the GIV. They look all around. And around again in case one might be hiding up there]. Woman3: "Clear!"
Man5: "Where does it go ?" [referring to the power umbilical cord.]
Man4: "Noplace out of this world. It appears to go into this pile of debris. In this universe".
Man5: "That's comforting to know. At least it is in this universe.".
GIV: "Beep boop boop boop."
Woman3: "We are going to need a man lift (sic) and some shoring bars!"
Man5: "And an all-terrain vehicle!"
Man4: "Who ever heard of an all-terrain man lift?"
Woman3: "I hear something."
Man5 and Man4 [to each other] mime "shh" using non-verbal signals… remember we are supposed to communicate using non verbal signals only..
Voice of man2 [ coming from the GIV console inside of the GIV ] "hello out there.. hello…. Hellooo "
Woman3: "I hear two somethings."
Voice of man2 [ coming from the GIV console inside of the GIV ] "I am here in the wreckage"
[POV in the wreckage, woman 2 punches man2] man2: "Oof, I mean we are here in the wreckage".
[POV camera position inside of the GIV looking out] Woman3: "I do hear something." [points to the debris]
Man4: "It's coming from the GIV."
Woman3: [stands in between the wreckage of the Victorian Mansion, and the GIV. She can hear "voice of man2" coming from the Wreckage and also from the GIV.] "I hear you (man2 name)."
Man2: :[ from inside the wreckage of the Victorian Mansion] "Aaugh! you would not believe what is going on in here!"
Man5 and Woman 3: " man2, is that you? Are you alright?"
[Woman3 is listening more to the debris. Man4 and Man5 are listening more to the console in the GIV. The voice of Man2 is coming out of both places. Woman3, man4, and man5, can hear both the console in the GIV and the real voices from inside a big pile of debris. The ghost chasers team is still alive! Hooray! On the other hand, the old Victorian Mansion is still becoming a pile of debris. Pieces of wood are still falling off. Clang, clomp, trupmph! ]
Man2: "Yes. And no. In this order.
