this is a Democratic Party primary, so it's up to the Democrats to pick wherever - it's their game.

It could be the democrats are trying to suppress voters, and that was alleged last election by McClellan's opponents. But the Party just claims this is all it has the money and organizational power to do.

They have a better excuse in this case, 5 places in a senate district isn't nuts. But it's politics, so there might be subtle Democratic party shenanigans too

if it's mid century modern there's a good market for it. If it isn't, there isn't.

Which is great for someone like me that actually likes mahogany furniture and appreciates good craftsmanship. I'll take a piece of furniture that has lasted 100 years and will go another 100 without thinking over disposable Ikea crap any day

ironically, I'm somewhat glad it burned. Fox was in one of the worst shapes of any RPS school, but there was no way it would ever get any money for renovation because it's the "rich school". It's basically a shell, they have to fix everything there. The only issue will be if they don't provide enough space and bring back the trailers which I could totally see RPS mishandling.

But better a school that will handle another 100 years than a disposable school of the sort they've built lately

this isn't true. Munford would like a word even before.

Look at Foxs demographics after the rezoning, facts matter.

There are a lot of myths about Fox which are based on weird emotions, not rationality and facts, as this shows. It's almost like people are insulted by the idea that RPS has some functional schools, and want to drag them all down to the same level of dysfunction

so if there is no acceleration, at steady speed, then a car exerts no force (true) and no damage (False) on what it hits?

I think F=mv^2/2 is rather more relevant here, with the exponent being exponentially more important.

And it still doesn't matter. 2k squishes just fine. You can't get more dead than dead
