I am in the midst of making similar decisions as Casey. So I really appreciate hearing all the different approaches to setting up workstations.

I sense some frustration on your part. I may be one of the people you get frustrated with in the left lane. Allow me to explain: often I am traveling along I-26 in the right lane at 65mph. Then, I come up to another car in the right lane that is going 60mph, so I switch lanes to pass them. As I pass the 60mph car, I notice that it is directly behind another 60mph car, and another, and another... this continues for miles. At some point a faster car comes up behind me, in the left lane—now we are both passing cars in the left lane, but the car behind me obviously wants to go faster than the speed I am going. So, I eventually squeeze back into the right lane, but I will only do it if I don't have to use my brakes to change lanes. Does this sound like the situation that you find yourself in a lot? Or are the people in the left lane going the same speed as the people in the right lane in your frustrating situations?

You are right. I just had the general feeling that the last episode lowered the stakes, in the same way a dream sequence takes you out of the narrative.

Good point. Although the first few seasons were so intriguing, and it really had the feeling of a well-thought-through story. I think the writer's strike killed the narrative, but the show must go on. You know how a mystery novel gives you that feeling—where you are reaching out and trying to latch-on to the solution to the puzzle? Then at the end of the story it "clicks" into place, and the story has a satisfying rebound as you think back to the little things you missed here and there? Well Lost does the opposite of this. Lost sets you up with new, intriguing plot points every episode, then a lot of them never pay-off.

Cadillac Desert was made into a documentary, and it is on youtube. This pertains to water resources engineering and planning. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hkbebOhnCjA

Probably the show Lost. Don't watch it. 7 seasons ruined by one final episode.

Stating it that way is the exact wrong thinking. Over a 30yr mortgage, a 1% probability blossoms into a 26% probability. Most the polls only gave Donald Trump a 20% probability of being SCOTUS. So, if you have a mortgage within a 100yr floodplain, you were more likely to see a catastrophic flooding than you were to see DJT as president.

This is fantastic. Fractals are the answer!!!

Two spaces after a period is a hold-over from the formatting of a typewriter. We don't use typewriters. The computer automatically formats the text. Stop wasting your life a few milliseconds at a time by pressing the space bar.

what does this mean?

I think it is cool to see the clean and clear water flowing through the skimmer.

This is downstream of the Lake Powell... so not impounded.

doesn't exactly meet your criteria, but Mistborn by Sanderson is similar and a good read.

Were they able to incorporate Stormwater Management into any of the park features (bioretention, disconected roof drains, etc.)?

Some of the cross sections are shown in plan-view on the FIRM. However not all of the cross sections, and the topography they contain, are published. All of that additional information resides in a numerical model somewhere in FEMAs library. The numerical model most commonly used is software by the name of HEC-RAS.

Why don't you have any engineers on your team that can help you with this? I am a Hydraulic engineer and I work with architects and landscape architects every day to solve problems at the intersection of water-resources, ecology, and aesthetics. If the Civil Engineer on the design team is not able to help you with these questions, or at least find someone who can, he is doing you a disservice.

how about fridge then, and only with aluminum or steel?

Fat is good for you. It fills you up.

∆ You have convinced me that my proposal is bad, but you have not convinced me that universal suffrage is good; it seems to be the lesser of wrongs. Maybe it is the tax code that needs fixing and not the suffrage thing.

But the poor can come to the table if they want, they just have to buy-in. Whether it was by becoming rich, or just giving money to some conglomeration that pools money to pay taxes so they can vote for politicians that support whatever it is the conglomeration stands for... a sort of tax-paying-voting-non-profit................ I realize this is becoming really far fetched and you almost earned your delta, but the current system is unfair to the wealthy: they don't get back what they pay into the system.

If the goal is equilibrium, then universal suffrage does not accomplish this goal... It is like a game of poker: on one side are people playing with real money (the rich tax payers), and on the other side of the table are people buying in to the game for a penny (poor tax payers). The poor tax payers have no "skin in the game"; that is the inequality.
