I think they did pass on the word- I was on a Southwest flight leaving Dallas for Baltimore that day, and we were held on the ground for about 20 minutes while they re-routed the flight to a more southern route.

An early “solution” was to sheath the inside face of the prop in steel so the bullets would bounce off and not destroy the propeller. Later someone came up with the interuptor gear....

I have started backing up my NOOK library on Calibre, because I am not at all sure how much longer B&N will last in the US.

I was a drug store (chemists) manager in the SF Bay Area when Loma Prieta hit in ‘89. That is what happened in my store, bottles and merchandise all over the floor. It was a long night cleaning it up.

My only complaint so far is with the all apps part of the start menu. It list apps that had been uninstalled before the transition to Win 10 (from Win 7) and there does not appear to be a way to make them disappear. Not a big issue, but irritating.

I had occasion to be in Monaco a few years ago, in the week between the Historics and the F1 race. Driving a “normal” car with all the Armco up was interesting. Could not imagine trying to do it at speed.....

My sister in law has that switched pedal set up, due to a stroke. A pedal is attached to the left of the brake and is hooked to the “real “ gas pedal through a linkage.

I had the misfortune of changing planes at CDG a couple of years ago..... the ultimate game of “you can’t get there from here”.

Absolutely!!!
