    Another Vermont bread maker. Just north of Burlington. Wish I'd known when I went over to Burlington last fall, I might have looked for a loaf... which was probably sold out. Just amazing ... Link to video

    They are the villain in the right to repair battle. Repairs being controlled mean those that grow the food would face higher costs. Timing is very important when growing and harvesting crops. A breakdown during crucial time and a wait for the dealer to repair would be disastrous.

    Was raised in New Madrid County, Missouri. 200+ small quakes a year are measured there. I only felt the one that was a 3.2. The earthquake of 1811 was centered there. It rang church bells in Boston and made the Mississippi River run backwards.

    The disability stuff is probably unfair. Unlike SSDI the fact that he can farm oysters doesn’t make him ineligible for VA disability. But the ‘prolier than thou’ stuff was always a ruse. He was an upper middle class kid who went to a very fancy private school until he got kicked out. His father bought his house for him. He told friendly press that he only makes about 5k a year farming oysters and his mom’s restaurant is his only business. He makes almost 5k a month on disability.

    Have you got something better than "rigor tortoise"? That is not drawing the adoration I need.

    Yes, but they've closed the drapes so you can't see the havoc they wrought while you were out.

    @ShiroKuro said: How did you find this site? One of those daily news/interesting stuff newsletters. I don't subscribe to the newsletter anymore but happened to check their site a few days ago and this was one of the sites they featured on that day. RetroTv is a major rabbit hole....I just showed it to Mr wtg. I think he may surface in a couple of days...

    @RealPlayer I don't think it's unusual. Engineers figure it out. But what I've read is that the developers of this construction have racked up several violations and have deviated from agreed upon plans. Don't take my word for it though.
