Build some Mega Projects; Infrastructure, dams, reservoirs, pipelines, desalinization plants, etc. We know the problem is coming, plan for it, that is what government should do, not tell us to stop flushing the toilet.

Oh, wait, building stuff is so last century. It is so environmentally unfriendly to let people live in comfort.

Only eat at places run by skinny people.

It is all fun and games until the lawyers come knocking at your door.

There are probably lots of words you don't know. It's OK. Even I don't know ALL the words, so I look them up in a DICTIONARY.

They could have used the word "comb", but you don't get paid the big research bux if you use common-folk terminology.

My grandmothers* are both dead, you insensitive clod!

* I had two. If you you only had one grandmother, my condolences, all the more so.

Well, actually... they probably are, but the applications they run no longer solve engineering problems, they...

Oh! Shiny! sorry, I need to go buy something, this online offer is limited duration!

I don't have caller id - I've saved multiple thousands of dollars by not adding it to my (*cough*) land line service.

Cop One: Shit! Why didn't some three-letter-agency deal with that? Now I've got a lot of paper work to do...

Well... and doe v bolton

To paraphrase B. Franklin... "You have privacy, if you can keep it."

And I didn't sign no stinking pledge. What makes you think what *I* think is up to you any more?

As in somebody else pays for it...

But still, it might be ok if the covered courses are useful, and not just "community organizer" type courses. That is to say, something that will train for a marketable skill.

Any old building that is in disrepair due to neglect, wasn't worth saving. Q.E.D.

You imply it is a waste to build a cheaper building, while one could argue it is a waste to over build, and commit to future expenses.

Buildings have a useful lifetime, and become prohibitively expensive... obsolete plumbing, electrical, heating cooling, insulation.

Bah, lemme go see if the company beer fridge is still stocked.

This app would come with a feature that completely erases itself and any record that you even considered using it. This kicks in if you don't positively identify that you are still alive and coherent every 6 hours. The lawyers would make sure this feature is present.

Since you might be using this app in the wilderness, while you are foraging, there are some sister apps you might like; one that estimates if you can jump that ravine, and another that tells you if there are enough handholds on that cliff face for climbing...
