I say make it illegal for anyone other than traffic/parking law enforcement to apply these devices...if they make these things commercially available to any Tom, Dick, and Harry, that increases their scam potential by a wide margin as anybody with a grudge against you can apply one to your windshield
but evidently there are ways to defeat them that involve a little technical know-how in how to create equal pressure against the suction pressure and have it pop right off
presumably it could also be defeated by simply removing your whole windshield and having it replaced...in many cases for much less than what you'd be paying to the scam artists that applied the device

Never heard conventions do it, until now, but it's the going rate at music festivals over here.

When I was learning to drive in 2003 gas averaged $.88 a gallon to as much as 1.02 a gallon and then the war on terror started and gas prices havent gone down since. They have only gone up
it is fun though to see sometimes a screwup in a gas piricing macghine and suddenly people filling their SUV for 3 bucks or so. {one gas station in Iowa the attendant hit ENTER too soon so the price per gallon {for 3 hours} was $.36}

Since 2018, there have been periods where we export more oil than we import. So obviously, we have our own energy sources.
In my opinion, we should do two things, and I think we could tell the middle east to go fly a kite
1: Prohibit the export of oil in any form. It is clearly a resource which has a major impact on almost all aspects of society, and should be treated as such.
2: Tell the enviros that are impeding the development of domestic oil production to go sit in the dark cave they want everyone else to live in and shut up.
No, I don't mean willfully destroy the environment. But oil resources can be extracted responsibly and safely, but these idiots want none of it. They just want to stifle oil (and in fact all other sources of energy as well) just for the sake of stifling it.

At this point, it's probably not happening.
Found something about not shipping till December on reddit.. But they didn't say of what year.

Oh, and BTW, TOS is probably the best Trek series. Followed by TNG & Voyager

My brother not passing along information.
So, long story short, had to phone an ambulance on Friday to take my poor wee mum into hospital.
When I left her on Friday evening, she was in a room of her own on the orthopedic ward. But when I went up to visit yesterday afternoon, she'd been moved into a larger room with three other ladies.
A fact I only discovered when I knocked on the single room's door and found a different patient. I apologised and went in search of a nurse.
Which leads me back to my brother. He'd visited earlier that afternoon, and given me a lift to the hospital.
At no point did he tell me that mum had been moved.sigpic
Long before you and I were born, others beat these benches with their empty cups,
To the night and its stars, to the here and now with who we are.
Another sunrise with my sad captains, with who I choose to lose my mind,
And if it's all we only pass this way but once, what a perfect waste of time.
