You and I had the same thought. I want one, and I don’t even follow Indy racing.

They could make a zillion dollars auctioning off cores like this and re-paving to fix the holes.....

As a process engineer for a Concrete Laboratory... this is interesting AF.

“Is it flaunting literary privilege”

Is it flaunting literary privilege to say that anyone going into a production of 1984 without some idea of what they’re going to see deserves what they get?

Usually I avoid the hell out of anything that’s labeled “torture porn” but I’m genuinely curious how they are managing to freak people out with a stage performance. The last (only) Broadway play I saw was Sweeney Todd and it was plenty tame considering it’s about murder and cannibalism.

This is some great geek, explained really well! It makes me want to know more, which is the Holy Grail of geek...
