. No it doesn't.

Looks like Sturgis is killing it this year.

Don't you guys see, Turtle is doing the exact same as Trump - not making any definitive claims, but just trying to sow doubt. That's because they will need that doubt in November.

Each state is different. Many states have a long history of suppressing voting among minorities. They are still at it, SCOTUS has made their work easier. It looks a little banana republicish to me.

You would think that the failure in New York would have led to trying to improve the system. You would think the federal Government would do anything to ensure the States have the resources available to improve their systems in light of COVID. In stead you get this.... Add to that the US Post Master purposely slowing down the mail service. For a democracy you guys certainly try and make it as difficult as possible to actually vote.

While I did static line rather than AFF (I'm old), I too was shit scared until my first self-supervised jump (i.e. first freefall). As in I seriously considered riding the plane down each time. I made 7 static lines (minimum of 5), and was more scared each time. I went ahead and made the first freefall, and somehow relying on myself really cured it. I was a skydiver after that. When I'd made my first jump, I was given the choice between a certificate and a logbook, and I'd taken the logbook, but man I regretted it part of my student progression. There's nothing wrong with deciding skydiving isn't for you. Absolutely nothing wrong. Even as a tunnel instructor. But I will say that my first freefall was a magic jump for me; it was about 45 years ago, and I still remember it distinctly. So no advice, just parallel experience, and agreement with the other poster that no, you're not alone. Wendy P.

I am not antiEV per se. I am fine with a private company like UPS trying out EVs. I’m against this https://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-electric-buses-20180520-story.html

I've seen them. Most of that type of tank that I'm familiar with has an electric pump. That one is gravitiy fed (from what the pic shows), but that would be slow as hell. The only people I know who have them are farmers. Everyone else I know (myself included) goes to the gas station. I doubt that Bill has enough storage for a car. Very few people who have home solar have any storage. My point was that he could use the power produced at the time to charge his car. Most home solar arrays wouldn't have enough capability to run the house and charge the car at the same time (as I said). But if there's no other choice, I'd shut down most everything in the house to let the car get most of the power.

Yes I get that, but I also get that the glaciers have been shrinking for the last several hundred years, long before this AGW nonsense. My contention is that it is part of a natural cycle. If the climate were responding to the input of CO2, the glaciers would have been gone by 2020, just like the models predicted, they didn't and the models were/are WRONG.

"Arctic sea ice appears to have reached its annual maximum extent on March 5. The 2020 maximum sea ice extent is the highest since 2013." From the same source
