There was no need to explain.  I'm still needing to cut
way back or stop for some time too.

So, did you get a traffic obstruction charge for moving that,
heavy as a car, Aga oven?  Hey, I thought speeding tickets,
parking tickets, and traffic obstruction were for teenagers
and college students on the move. :)

What?

Why doesn't the U.K. want to be part of the E.U.?
That should, in theory, based on the U.S. federal
and state model, be great for the U.K. economy.
Does Germany have too much power in the E.U.?
Is the E.U. taxing or regulating the U.K. too much?

Back when the Euro was first implemented, I thought it
wouldn't last too long, because there was no central
government, e.g., U.S. federal government controls
monetary policy for all of the U.S. states.  However,
the Euro has managed to survive so far, albeit with
some troubles.  Doesn't a common currency have some
benefit?  Even in the U.S., our currency is more
valuable in certain regions, and far less valuable
in others, based on the prices being paid.  That's
not good for working people, but great for retirement.

I've seen those range top and oven combinations on TV,
but I'm not sure if they're available in the U.S.  If
Wikipedia is correct, they're a major source of wasteful
energy consumption in the E.U., and probably a source
of unnecessary green house gas emissions too.  Although,
some of them, the oldest, I'm guessing, are valuable as
collectors items, or used in home restorations for the
wealthy.

As for asbestos, anything that is suspected of having
it here requires a permit or license to remove, and
requires you to hire a specialty removal company which
will you charge a large sum of money to do so.  Otherwise,
you end up with a huge government fine and jail time for
environmental pollution, if you intentionally, or even
accidentally, disperse asbestos.  Although, you probably
won't end up in trouble for this in rural areas, as they
have less government and enforcement.  Asbestos was used
in all sorts of products, including automobile brakes,
etc, the main source of problems for people here are old
insulated heating and cooling ducts. These are easy for
the home owner to remove and replace, and are covered in
the stuff in old homes.  Old homes also had lead paint,
which requires similar remediation.  Most other sources
of contamination affect businesses and not homeowners.
Many of the apparently extremely inexpensive homes in
decaying U.S. industrial cities have these hidden expenses.
Such abandoned or foreclosed urban homes also usually come
with unpaid tax bills in the form of liens. I.e., these
unpaid taxes are taxed to the property in major cities
and suburbs, and so pass from home owner to home owner
until paid, instead of being treated as debt and charged
to an a specific individual or family.  Think of all those
foreign, mostly Chinese, investors who invested in bundles
of such extremely cheap homes in the U.S. a few years ago
as rental properties. They got tax liens, asbestos remediation,
lead remediation, rot and decay, broken windows, theft of
copper pipes and wiring, ...  Well, profit is made on the
low end, but does the world ever get tired of buying
financial crap?

The link suggests that "trickling" is slightly faster than
"bubbling" for something to do with browsers ... (HTML DOMS)

I would have to question as to why that is.  I.e., this may
be something due to implementation or language design, as
I can't immediately think of any inherent difference simply
due to the direction of data passing.  E.g., they may have
implemented something in the "trickling" path that filters
out more objects so less data passing or message passing is
occurring.
