We have a lot of sprawl here and the reasons are many. Just like Dallas and LA, we have a ton of road infrastructure and zoning laws that eat up a lot of land. We also don't have any natural barriers, like an ocean or a mountain range, to limit our expansion. Just to keep building and add another lane. Thanks for asking.

Marchetti intended the constant to be 1 hour round trip, so a half-hour commute one-way. It's an important distinction, since here in Atlanta the exurban commuter is clocking in at 1.5 hours or more into the city, well outside of what is considered tolerable. Multiply that by a million and you get some irritated people.

Weather Channel just reported a 6 foot peak in Hawaii. It was the 1st time in over a decade they sounded the tsunami sirens.

This is really fascinating and the article was a good read. I had no idea carvings this adjacent to the ocean could last that long. On that fact alone, this area should be protected and recorded as best we can. What I know of preservation, my first instinct upon reading that a historian was pushing sand into the petroglyphs to highlight them was horror! But duh, what the hell is she doing that the ocean hasn't been doing for centuries. And the glyphs still remain! So cool, thanks for sharing.

Okay, now defend us from the foreign censorship that Israeli lobbyists baked into our state constitutions. https://www.newsweek.com/pro-palestinian-protest-states-colleges-illegal-bds-1895292
