TT's drag racing uphill at 45 in the 70 zone is just about the worst. I-81 down around Roanoke is where I see this crap most often (despite signs that instruct TT's to stay in the right lane if going under 70).

I remember the days when I had a yugo... now, there was a car that enjoyed not going over 50mph.

Much better than it used to be although I do miss the old iron bridge with the barber shop on the Randolph side.

If you reported it then you should need do nothing unless the insurance company contacts you for the deductible payment, if any.

Keep your chin up. The boys are out there working in the cold, doing what can be done to get you out of the dark.

Isar2 would like to have a word. Neckarwestheim and a couple others, too.

>Nuclear is a better source if one goes by facts not emotions.

Right. That's what they said before 1980 at TMI because all that was caused by emotions, not facts, same as in Chernobyl.

Interesting. In Nashville, the mayor asked the Titans to postpone their game due to the TVL instituting rolling blackouts in the area.

'twas in the 70's. And they were right. Nukes are going dark for a different reason, tho. Cannot compete with shale gas.

>I can’t help thinking there was negligence or carelessness involved.

What a terrible thing to say. That house was up far longer than you have been alive. More than likely was accidental. They lost their home and their critter. Show some restraint.
