Wait until simply reading about abortion is made illegal. https://www.vanityfair.com/new...

I'm picturing Willy Wonka saying sarcastically "Stop, don't".

Republicans also controlled the senate at the time.

Quite a bit. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... Can you be more specific?

There is no hate like Christian love.

This is my prime example of republican overton window shifting. The greatest republican to ever exist, Ronald Reagan was in favor of granting amnesty for people in the country illegally.

What would happen today if any republican proposed that?

The people who cry the loudest about illegal immigration remain silent when you talk about prosecuting companies who hire illegal workers. Remove the incentive for people who cross illegally. But that would never happen. These same people would throw a fit when they find out what the real price of construction and agriculture labor is. Cry about illegals all day while enjoying cheap tomatoes and roofs.

Can conservatives go one day without thinking about children's genitals?

Elon has something like 10 children and a number of them won’t even speak to him.

Nothing happens to local cops when they “forget” to turn on their cameras. Or they all mysteriously malfunction.

>Once passengers have arrived at the train station somewhere in
>Nevada & found their way to Las Vegas,

Once upon a time, the railway station in Las Vegas was downtown.

Or to put it better, Las Vegas grew *from* the station.

The old classic shots you see of Fremont street were taken from entrance of the Union Plaza--the hotel eventually built on the railway property.

You actually accessed the station *through* the casino.

I took Amtrak from it to Iowa once. The oddities of accessing central Iowa by air at the time meant an overnight stay/airport sleep! So taking the train meant leaving at about the same time as for the airport.

I'm sure it makes sense to *someone* to not simply join up with the existing track and stop there again, but . . .

Speaking as a local the monorail was insanity from the start.

At the time, the taxi companies still had the "juice" (as it's termed here) to block it from going to the airport, which would have been part of any sane plan.

AFAIK, its only sane feature was meeting the requirement that the cost of demolition be escrowed.

In its bankruptcy a decade or so ago, Judge Markell actually rejected the agreed reorganization--something quite rare. He pointed out that, in spite of the agreement,
a) the court had an independent duty to review, and
b) one of the requirements for confirming a plan being that it wasn't likely to need another bankruptcy--and that this one pretty much locked in another one down the road.

Extending it *might* make sense; I don't know the current economics. But if so, it should go to the airport, downtown, and the nearby stadiums--or don't bother.

And if we're going ahead with tunnels (a big question itself), the monorail would be redundant, anyway.

hack came out in '82, and nethack was a fork a few years later.

It is still in active development, despite the netcraftian rumors some time back.

And still the only game that *matters* . . .
