I visit both cities from time to time. St. Louis needed to do something more productive with that area for sure. The most interesting thing down there may be the TUMs factory. However, Power&Light in KC is a pretty boring alternative I think, dress code or not. I guess a city needs a bland entertainment area for…

My family goes up to reasonably crowded areas in the Rockies that have no cell service. We have to fall back on old logistics methods: e.g. "We'll all meet at this tree at 1:00pm." This would be a nice capability if the mesh network and message passing actually work across a distance of a mile or so.

But I'll be so lonely then.

Shoot, wrong thread! Thanks Kinja!

What is this? A city for ants?

I like this list. And I like seeing all the other movies suggested in the comments. Now if I can just remember to bookmark the page.

I learned that they've claimed the North Pole since 1907.

About 55% of the water from a fountain is lost per year for Las Vegas (due to evaporation, leaks, etc.). E.g. The Ballagio is about 22million gallons, and they replace about 12 million per year.

Roughly 50% (eta: 55%) per year for a large fountain like the Bellagio in Las Vegas. At least according to their records.

Looks like they deleted this thread. Too hard to address I assume.

They've also been dismissing comments that bring up points they don't want to address.

Or better yet, we let two lawful organizations work out their own agreements.

You are free to enter into your own contract with Chrysler. What's more free market than that? It turns out they would rather work with the union than with you. But no one is stopping them from doing that. It's very much free market driven. If Chrysler didn't want to work with the union, they don't have to.

I'm a Bama fan, but I'll give you that one. It's only funny because it's true.

I've not heard of these combinations. It sounds wrong! Therefore I'll have to try it as soon as possible.

You can both be right. I've seen (and often emulated) old timers doctoring a saltine with tabasco, etc., then slurping the oyster and brine, chased with the doctored saltine. The salt and crunch do add to the experience.

Fair enough. I retract my complaint. I grew up buying oysters off the back of boats, so I forget how intimidating they can be.

Shucking oysters really is pretty straightforward. The key is not to fight it and try and brute force your way in. That way is full of frustration. If you are having to use serious muscle, you aren't torquing the right spot. Try again in a slightly different area.

Learning to code well requires a methodical logical thought process. I'm impressed that more good coders aren't able to translate that skill into other aspects of their work or personal life.

It's where all the lost Amazon boxes have been going.
