I do strongly doubt that knee jerk reactions and over-corrections are the right course of action.
It's really about all we have to work with.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1958_Lituya_Bay_earthquake_and_megatsunami
Quote:
The 1958 Lituya Bay earthquake occurred on July 9 at 22:15:58 PST with a moment magnitude of 7.8 to 8.3 and a maximum Mercalli intensity of XI (Extreme).[4] The strike-slip earthquake took place on the Fairweather Fault and triggered a rockslide of 40 million cubic yards (30 million cubic meters and about 90 million tons) into the narrow inlet of Lituya Bay, Alaska. The impact was heard 50 miles (80 km) away,[7] and the sudden displacement of water resulted in a megatsunami that washed out trees to a maximum elevation of 1,720 feet (524 meters) at the entrance of Gilbert Inlet.[8] This is the largest and most significant megatsunami in modern times; it forced a re-evaluation of large-wave events and the recognition of impact events, rockfalls, and landslides as causes of very large waves.[9]
Things like this is why the Oregon Coast is posted with Tsunami Zone signage.

I picked up a gallon of Electric Exhaust Fluid, and an electron-monoxide detector to install in the cabin.
We're going to perform a kilowatt dump to lighten the vehicle, save a little on rolling resistance.
She's chosen a route where we'll have access to PREMIUM electricity, to prevent excessive MOSFET and IGBET knock.
What's the global 'cooling' comment in reference to?
And please excuse me while I find a rabbit to hug and some mung-beans to munch.
Not a Saloon, look up the proper name ( yes such a name for such a place exists)
Electron-monoxide's other proper name is ozone or is it a dioxide
Killowatt dump: why not electrons have mass
Mosfets and IGBT's dont knock they ring

Other than that carry on but I'm concerned a crumudgeon is associated with a millennial. One will affect the other for a non-optimal outcome

You seem to be watching a lot of PBS digital labs lately.

He just wants to date her. We'll find out Friday if she comes through with the lessons.

Okay, but I suspect she is way to high maintenance for him

I worked a decade with trumpet-playing band member S.H., and watched Gumbo Kings grow from a seed. I think the spelling's correct.

🤔

PBS = Indoctrination


Quote:
Indoctrination

noun [ U ] disapproving


the process of repeating an idea or belief to someone until they accept it without criticism or question:

religious/political/ideological indoctrination

The lasting effect of indoctrination should not be exaggerated.
https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dic...indoctrination



Suddenly, it all makes sense...

Cartoon

Great graphic art!
Reminds me of a character played on Twilight Zone by Burgess Meridith, in which he was the sole survivor of a nuclear attack, now had all the time in the world to read books ( his love ), then proceeded to break his eye glasses!
