Simon ,'Objects In Space'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Gravity is just a theory. School districts prefer to teach "intelligent attraction" these days.
Gravity? Please. If gravity exists, why can't we see it? Since we can't see "gravity," attraction between objects obviously must be caused by magic, some sort of supreme being, angels, Satan, or the Harry Potter books.
so, a building collapsed on 100 & Bway? anyone know of this?
Part of a building, anyway.

I'm picturing cows with fangs, wings and claws. And tails with a stinger on the tip that delivers a deadly venom.
I'd just like to mention that I think 'Escalante' is as great a word as 'vermin.'
Ferrets were illegal to keep in MA until fairly recently (along with commercial tattoo parlors), with the argument being that they couldn't be properly vaccinated for rabies. So if you kept a ferret you had to take it to a vet in NH.
I'm not at all sure about the status of snakes as pets, except that I've seen them on sale in pet stores, which would argue for very VERY lax enforcement.
I'm still shocked every time I see a tattoo parlor in MA. In my day, we kept that kind of sinning in New Hampshire, where it belongs!

The contrast between that and the near-psychotic level of rails and warnings you see in major national parks here really struck me.
You know, it's not entirely consistent. I know in the Grand Canyon walking the rim in some places I was about two feet from an fatal-fall edge with no warnings or rims. Some places they're all "No! Don't go beyond this point! If you go beyond this point then there's the vaguest possible possibility that if it was covered in ice and a strong wind came along and you had poor balance and for some reason were running toward the edge you might fall!" Others, it's "Hey, there's the cliff. Have fun."
