   ADK is a local's way of referring to Adirondack Mountains. It was probably an oversight for Hope to assume we all knew this.

   Well - I checked airport codes and couldn't find an ADK. Either side there's ADJ which is Amman, Jordan and ADL : Adelaide, South Australia.

   *Barry,I don't buy your Adirondack theory. I lived near that area for a good many years and never heard of such an abbreviation. Besides, when all the black flies moved in, all of the carpenters moved out.Perhaps a friend of mine, Adirondack Jack, who still lives there, will comment soon on this terribly important issue.

   ADK obviously stands for Alla De Kash, which it is
   well known carpenters will work for (having done
   so once myself) (honest it was just once) (well
   I can only remember once).

   It may also be the acronym for the new particle
   board furniture company which I heard is staring up;
   "All Dissbee Krap"

    Adirondack is the right answer. I like the alternative posts though! LOL

    For those of you Planet wide, look up New York State; between NYC and Montreal, is an area called The Adirondack Park. Its more of a zoning thing (to control and limit growth) than a park. The State owns a good part of this "park" and everytime the economy heats up enough to reach our neck of the woods, the nature lovers and Sierra Club types with family trust funds scream louder for developer and builder restrictions. No screaming for now as our economy (north of Saratoga) nosedived in '89 with no major boom times since. Most of us prefer it this way and grit are teeth everytime a new stoplight's installed somewhere between our homes and the lumber yard.

    Enjoying the winter...

    Will you reply to a series of inquires (see above)? And just what is an Adirondack type project? Wouldn't that be ATP?
