Can we have a law in this new city where asshole drivers who are hogging lanes, tailgating, and failing to keep right get scooped up by helicopters and dumped in the nearest body of water? I bet fear of this enforcement would also keep traffic levels down as well.
In Soviet Canada, lanes hog you.

Canada has free healthcare and paid maternity leave. Of course it's Communist  :spin:.

I get the gist Poiponen is trying to walk his Uber Communist utopia back but I tend to feel we are too late in the game for that.  Souky might as well be the new age Magadan at this point.

In fact this is a good way we can help Ukraine out, by building a trap Bridge. We make the bering straight bridge look like a normal American transportation project, even pretend to complete all the roads on the other side, and when the Bridge is filled to capacity with Russian tanks, the entire Bridge cab tilt sideways and slide them off into the Bering straight. Rinse and Repeat. Perfect defense strategy during uncertain times.
Dude Russia isn't falling for that. They might be dumb but not that dumb.

The Bering straight bridge can have a self destruct button if russian tanks are wandering 2 close to it. Or have it built like a drawbridge.

When the Channel Tunnel was first proposed in the 1800s, because of fears that it would be a French invasion route they proposed a self-destruct mechanism.

Switzerland I understand has prepared explosives in a lot of its tunnels and long-span bridges, to make it useless for anyone to invade it.

I got forced out of it a year or so ago by the Oklahoma Legislature putting a moratorium on OMMA issuing any new licenses for two years. I was hanging on pretty well running at a loss until then, but I definitely couldn't have held out for two more years. It also became pretty impossible to get any financing for the project at that point, as you might imagine, since "legally not allowed to do business for two years" isn't really something most people want to throw money at. It's probably just as well, though, since my business partners had a baby around the same time and were understandably more focused on that.

However, the Legislature passing that was basically the straw that broke the camel's back for me and finally led me to decide I wanted to move out of Oklahoma. My wife and I had a few discussions about where we might go, and decided that investigating Nevada would make the most sense. Now we've fallen in love with the place and are working in earnest to get things where they need to be financially to make a move possible. (You'll know when it finally happens, because my avatar will change.)

Last February, the temperature here hit -8°F (-22°C), and not only was that a one-time occurrence, that was a low, not a high. You're suggesting people live in areas with highs lower than that.

Some questions:

1.  What's up with your ridiculous and non-functioning [size] tags (I removed them from this quote)?

2.  Is Fahrenheit weather prohibited by law, or does it just not exist for some other reason?

3.  Are these maximums and minimums actually enforced, or are other temperatures permitted de facto?
