I consider any snow storm where the snow total is at my hip level, a big storm. 2016 was 3 ft, 1996 was 4 ft. Both really bad blizzards. 2016 was especially a bitch bc of the weight of the snow. My big beast craftsman was struggling

Haha yeah. I remember my neighbor almost fell for their shtick. Got an estimate it was $25,000. I gave him the name of a guy I know who did it for $7,000

I dunno the same way people have been dealing with snow on their flat roofs for the last century?

Reply to We should just stop trying to recycle by RoverTheMonster
We should go back to glass instead of plastic bottles. A lot less energy intensive to recycle glass, and can be reused. Food companies have deemed too costly. On the topic of plastic bags we 100% eliminated their use in our household over a decade ago. We bought tough canvas bags and they are great (similar to the tough canvas material that beach bags are). The stupid bags sold at stores made out of recycle plastic bottles fall apart and end up in the landfill.

Reply to comment by SgtKetchup in Why do some SEPTA buses/drivers in the middle of their scheduled routes, say “Final Stop” & make everyone get off? by Rigged_Art
I can't blame them. My local regional rail parking lot isn't even half full at best. Precovid people were fighting for spots and having to find obscure street parking

Reply to Hilco to start building ‘Bellwether District’ on old PES refinery grounds in early 2023 by ColdJay64
I'm an engineer and from what I've heard has been discovered in that soil far seems like an environmental engineers worst nightmare. And that's an understatement. Makes willow grove AFB look like a picnic in comparison

unless your water heater is old AF, as in 30+ yrs old, it has plenty of adequate insulation, even enough if it's in one of those utility closets that's off a balcony like you see in older apartment buildings.
you don't get a skyhigh gas bill due to a water heater, trust me
