Boil orders, what kind of a back woods town has those every month?!?! /sarcasm

Shouldn't these numbers be normalized wrt to population size?

16 weeks. Aren't you lucky. Try 10 weeks from a place that's on quarters. (undergrad ME on quarters)

I've also heard Dodge owners have been known to tell their buddies to hold his/her beer and "watch this". Sadly there was nothing physically stopping the car owner from hurting his/her own car.

It's very, very, hard to design against a user who is intent on destroying something.

I would be more worried about the bullets hitting me, not my car.

Or buying a bunch of food and going strait from the checkout to the return area and returning everything for cash (at least in OH stores can't give back food stamps). They then turn around and buy booze with the cash.

I've told you once and I'll tell you again - IT'S FOR HUNTING DEER

Oh you joke, but my hometown (Southern OH, just North of Piketon on US 23) got in a little trouble a couple of years ago for accepting donations to the tune of something like $1000 to make your ticket disappear. Wish I could find a better source...

In my state (Ohio) it's a law that you must be given 48 hours notice before the owner or someone on behalf of your apartment building can enter your apartment. There are exceptions for certain situations, like fire, and possibly your leaking pipes scenario if it was bad enough.

Not 0$/hour, you need to compare "can I do this cheaper myself than paying someone else?" Parts are cheap, labor is expensive. There are many of us who can do the the work. The whole point of knowing these codes is to quickly track down the problem. Also, there are more than a few of us who work on our cars for fun.

My school (fairly large school, 20000 undergrads + grad students) usually had ONE copy of the textbook for engineering classes at the library.

Ah drug dealers, just as nature intended.

From a good friend who is 6'2", leg room is annoying, but doable for short term. The real kicker is the head room, he looks out the top 2" of the windshield, hits his head getting in and out etc.

By that definition Nitrogen is a pollutant too, along with, well, any gas but Oxygen.
