I’m the Doctor. Well, they call me the Doctor. I don’t know why.
I call me the Doctor too. I still don’t know why. Heh-haa! Super squeaky bum time! No, I’ll fix it. I’m good at fixing rot. Call me the Rotmeister. No, I’m the Doctor. Don’t call me the Rotmeister.
It’s a fez. I wear a fez now. Fezes are cool. I am the last of my species, and I know how that weighs on the heart so don’t lie to me! I’m the Doctor, I’m worse than everyone’s aunt. *catches himself* And that is not how I’m introducing myself.
I’m the Doctor. Well, they call me the Doctor. I don’t know why. I call me the Doctor too. I still don’t know why. Father Christmas. Santa Claus. Or as I’ve always known him: Jeff. Annihilate? No. No violence. I won’t stand for it. Not now, not ever, do you understand me?! I’m the Doctor, the Oncoming Storm – and you basically meant beat them in a football match, didn’t you?
I’m the Doctor, I’m worse than everyone’s aunt. *catches himself* And that is not how I’m introducing myself. It’s art! A statement on modern society, ‘Oh Ain’t Modern Society Awful?’! Did I mention we have comfy chairs?
You hit me with a cricket bat. Stop talking, brain thinking.
Hush. All I’ve got to do is pass as an ordinary human being. Simple. What could possibly go wrong? All I’ve got to do is pass as an ordinary human being. Simple. What could possibly go wrong?
The way I see it, every life is a pile of good things and bad things.…hey.…the good things don’t always soften the bad things; but vice-versa the bad things don’t necessarily spoil the good things and make them unimportant. Saving the world with meals on wheels.
Annihilate? No. No violence. I won’t stand for it. Not now, not ever, do you understand me?! I’m the Doctor, the Oncoming Storm – and you basically meant beat them in a football match, didn’t you? Heh-haa! Super squeaky bum time!

October Luncheon: The Benefits of Hybrid Solutions to Hydronic Heating.
2025-10-20 11:45 - 13:00 (America/New_York) | Nationwide & Ohio Farm Bureau 4-H Center, 2201 Fred Taylor Dr,, Columbus,, OH, 43210, United States
Air-to-water heat pumps are rapidly gaining traction as hot water generators for hydronic heating in commercial buildings, thanks to their exceptional energy efficiency and low carbon emissions. However, their performance can be challenged during periods of low outdoor air temperatures. A hybrid approach—pairing air-to-water heat pumps with backup boilers—offers a practical and resilient solution, maintainin reliable building operation year-round with only a minimal tradeoff in carbon emissions. This presentation explores the design and performance of hybrid systems, demonstrating how they offer a realistic path toward meeting climate goals without compromising on comfort or reliability.

Test your “Ethics IQ” against real cases. Engineers are often confronted with ethical issues (whether they realize it or not). In this presentation you will engage in an interactive session where you are presented with multiple ethics cases, then you will discuss the cases in small groups, and then reveal their decisions. The cases that will be presented are all part of the NSPE’s Board of Ethical Review Online Cases.
