Some insurance company will pay for them I am sure...and some AC tech might lose his job...

The company should have bought him a new fridge, but unfortunately that isn't how the world works.

We're talking about OK here...it is a southern state in the USA, it is hot on average.

I was expecting to find that the item orbiting the asteroid would be tree shaped perhaps. That would be a great find :)

I want my Archon :)

Wow, you are funny.

Cuban Missile Crisis: Nuclear missiles being brought close to the US shore in the power of a third world government that hated the US.
Vietnam: The US backed a government in a civil war, China and the Soviet Union backed the other government.

If you consider that wackjob, than every country in the world is just as guilty, each country backs countries they are allied with.

I don't have individual city maps, but I have found that the visitor centers off the major highways tend to have maps for free, I have almost the entire east coast that I keep in my truck's glove box just in case. I can't say I have used one in years however...the last time I used one was when I took an exit in CT that was supposed to be in Mass and needed to figure out where I went wrong. I however always use my smartphone now, set the navigation before starting and follow it the whole way, it even updates for traffic.
