I’ve visited this particular program as a curious spectator and could probably come up with some reactionary response based on my 30 minutes of standing there watching..... This could have happened in any number of ways and I’m sorry for those involved and their families.

I’ve often heard, through people that knew him and an occasional mention, that A.W. Dicus (A preacher and scientist) invented the turn signal in 1918, but haven’t found a whole lot of information outside of anecdote. It’s said he was forced to sell his rights to it in 1922 due to a recession, so it’s possible he was…
The cost is the biggest hurdle unfortunately. The solid surfacing they should have used would run about double the shredded tires, and usually that’s about as much as the playstructure itself.
On playgrounds, the biggest issue is balancing the access/budget/ and activity. Not all of a structure HAS to be accessible to count, but to get a wheelchair up to a height enough for even a short 36" slide requires 36' of ramp (unless we come off of a berm) and a turn around point (usually for us that’s a large hex…
I must blink thrice then.
Not familiar with them, but there have been so many mergers lately, I can’t keep up with who is who any more.
That’s where I live also! I ready about this awhile back, but sadly didn’t know in time to get involved.
Some, the largest portion of the market is still the basic modular post-and-deck design, but there are a lot of new entries, still mostly steel pipe and large molded plastic slides, but flashier.
I got interviewed about it a few months ago by a design blog
We just had a meeting with an ASD Specialist recently and I was overwhelmed by the info and broad spectrum, what may be good for one is bad for another. That’s an enormous challenge.
Ha, There’s a rep that doesn’t know his lingo.
I design equipment and themes for the playground market and some of my work has involved Accessible Playgrounds. Mostly that revolves around wheelchair access and basic mobility (Rise and run of ramps, turning circles, step heights, etc). To get into a truly “Inclusive” playground is a whole different level of…
Blame the ongoing struggle between the NHTSA and the EPA.
I think it’s the roofline. It is a bit odd to have a rear facing seat under such a sloping roof. If it were a true wagon it may not seem odd.
I trust Jeff Lane is paying attention.
Shoulda been ready to catch it.
I was in college at the time myself and $9/month was a bit much to play for too long. I played mostly in the Beta phase when there was still a lot of exploits to be able to make extra money. You were allowed 3 different personas, each on a different server. Each one got free starter vehicles and a basic weekly income.…
It’s definitely addictive. Other than a few months off when my tablet crapped out and until i upgraded to a phone that could run it, i’ve played pretty well continuously.
Haven’t tried this one yet myself, I’ve been playing Real Racing 3 for the last 4 years. I liked the original version better where it was non-linear, but I do like the constant updates, cars, occassional tracks, etc.
