Concurrency of x, x+y, x+2y

Ideas for Cross-Atlantic Bridge

A Lunar Expressway!

a solar expressway!

Ridiculous extension of the Highway 427 from Etobicoke, ON to Youngstown, NY.

Renumber every highway in the country Route 0

(...actually, the Fictional Highways section is a little too easy of a target.)

I didn't include that one because it's actually marginally interesting.  The formal mathematical definition in the thread title kind of obfuscates the simplicity of the pattern.

Yeah... it's a phase. I expect it to pass.

You put an extra quotation mark at the beginning and end of the website address. And you put "http" twice. Fixed version:

I suspect the forum added one of the http prefixes, thinking it wasn't there.  I think it would be smart for the forum to first look for quotes at the start and end of the url= parameter (and possibly other forum code parameters) and strip them before further processing.

What's one of the biggest problems with the graveyard shift? I assume it depends on the job, but I think for most people the biggest problem is boredom. Ta-da!

Having 250,000 things to do besides working on customers.  The dangers of working alone.  Having to go to the bathroom when there's nobody else to wait on customers.  Staying awake.  Being able to sleep after work.  Adjusting from normally working an evening shift on most days to working overnights 4 days a month.
