i've flown the delta shuttle NYC to Boston pre-911 and it was FAST. we would take the 7am to boston and be back by 5 for dinner. arrive 20 minutes before the flight and just get on the plane

post 9-11 you have to get to the airport early to stand in line, wait around and sit in your chair and wait
might as well take the train with wifi, better seating, LTE access since its outside and a power outlet by your chair so you can charge your phone

same travel time

at some point 97% of geologists believed plate tectonics was false
at some point 97% of scientists didn't believe that dino's became birds or believed that they were just the slow and lumbering lizards like in 60's movies

almost every major scientific advance has been made by a few "rogue" scientists advocating rogue theories which at one time have been dismissed by most scientists in the field

NYC we have meters in no parking zones all the time. you have to read the sings.

in most of manhattan only commercial vehicles are allowed to park on the street and have to pay the meter. private cars will get towed except for sundays

in some areas you have to be a local resident to park in some places

yep, wal mart figured this out long ago

it has a policy of fighting every lawsuit, no matter how minor. keeps all the scam artists who slip in their stores on purpose away

same thing happened decades ago with product liability suits. a few companies settled and then everyone started getting sued for all kinds of "defects"

Waste not, get your budget cut next year.
