That’s what I meant. I worded it poorly.

I’ll always downvote posting a tweet. If you have something to say, just say it. Stop being weird about it. Attention seeking behavior is gross.

Prenups are easily worked around, especially in CT. Never rely on a prenup.

Why do you feel the need? Can you avoid dangerous areas? Best to raise awareness avoid confrontation than to need a weapon.

I responded to a post that said last year was terrible. That would be 2021.

This year. Last year- we had a rainy summer. July set records.

What are all of the other large areas of dark like in the north west? The area described is obviously something special but this map is not conveying it to me at all.

They are very different stores and fill different needs. You can’t really put them in the same box.

Completely anecdotal but I’ve heard there are often a lot of maintenance nightmares. I’ve also heard It’s difficult and expensive to retrofit into existing buildings. It seems amazing if you can make it work. Again, These are just foggy memories that stuck in my brain so who knows where the truth on geothermal is. If building new, I’d look into it.

Do you know much about it? It’s more problematic than you’d think.

You kinda need to work on both simultaneously though. Near term and future.

I found this bit interesting
“Why have we not built additional pipeline capacity? The industry has proposed several pipeline projects to bring natural gas into CT, RI, and MA. Click HERE to see the list of these projects. These projects have been opposed by many in the legislature and administration who are against investing in ANY hydrocarbon related project. These projects would be funded by the private sector and do NOT require any public funds; they require regulatory approvals. Due to the lack of government support, CT consumers will pay $1.5 billion in higher costs this winter; without such projects, spikes will continue for a decade.”
Like most things, there is probably more to the story. I thought it was great that he sent something out addressing concerns though. I haven’t heard much from others.

This is how it starts- lots of interesting things up there. Get an app like Sky Guide or Night Sky. You can then point your phone at it and it will tell you what star, planet, satellite, etc it is. If you want to find something specific, you type it in and the app directs you where to look.

I know someone who’s family long ago owned a very large section of waterfront property in Fairfield county. It wasn’t all that valuable back then.

I haven’t seen a Bugatti, but I’ve seen just about every other super car / big money car while driving around Fairfield county.
