lunar landers and rovers under construction before they begin their
out-of-this-world journey to the Moon’s surface.
Astrobotic's is located on Lincoln St. and has a 15233 zip, as opposed to the 15212 zipcode for the museum.

Right? I was listening to an interview with the museum director (I think?) and he was saying that you'll be able to view the construction of a spaceship i real time. I'm assuming through some sort of real-time projection. But that it's going to be displayed wall sized.

Thanks. I use the GAP from Southside frequently, but not from Waterfront. That sounds really sucky.

Well, but can't you get to waterfront from the bridge? You can access the GAP from the Waterfront Mall. Not sure what I'm missing.

I think that's why the National Parks facility opted out. But maybe this is a solution for compact areas that would cover several blocks with each station. My point is that if these are already in place, they should be utilized. Anything that can be done to decrease the carbon footprint is on the plus side.

It sounds like some of them are still being maintained. Vicinity Energy talks about how they've upgraded over the decades.
This solution is under discussion because it decreases the carbon footprint. That is a growing issue that does need to be addressed.

Well, it's a good point. But the larger issue is that it was a fundraiser in California for a PA race.

Reply to comment by Redlar in ACLU files federal discrimination complaint against Central Bucks School District, alleging discrimination against LGBTQ students by Zashiony
OMG! I'm from a very different generation. But I brought home "The Autobiography of Malcolm X" and the Communist Manifesto when I was in high school in the mid-70s. My dad didn't like it, but he didn't stop me from reading them. I checked them out of my HS library, btw. I swear to FSM, I hate what the current generation is going through. I mean, there wasn't a lot of stuff out about LGBTQ when I was in HS, and I wish there was. But the indifference of my parent's generation towards education meant that I wasn't censored on what I read. Hell, I checked Clockwork Orange out of my public library when I was 11. That's the age you had to be to check out adult material. That would have been in, what? like 1969 1962?

Read Dazzle by Truman Capote. It was written around 40 years ago, and was about a child that went to a voodoo witch because they wanted to be a girl. This has been with us for a long, long time. Also, Truman Capote was out as a homosexual when it was far, far from acceptable.
Take a good look at the spectrum of sexuality in the animal kingdom. Some bird species require several participants of both sexes in order to procreate.
Did you know that there are documented relationships between to male penguins? Or that there was a documented case of a stable relationship between two male and one female geese?
If you believe that god had a hand in humans sexual and gender imperatives, then you have to acknowledge that they had a hand in the gender expressions throughout the animal kingdom.
This is not a matter of choice; it is a matter of acceptance. And so many in this society cannot accept these differences. It causes unimaginable pain to those who experience a disconnect because this society has no place for them. Denying them a route to self definition causes incredible grief and self-hate.

Not sure you'd have to if you aren't in the city proper. If you're doing AirBnB, those are usually in neighborhoods. Outlying areas will have free parking at a motel/hotel and could be a good balance of great nature activities and cool restaurants.

Man, really? Nobody is saying any of the stuff that you promulgating in your posts. You have made these same arguments again and again, ad infinitum.
Did you know that when you start testing for Celiac, the incidence of it went up? Same thing with T2 diabetes. Doctors are testing for it earlier and finding that it affects more people at a younger age.
It works the same way with these issues: awareness of alternatives to the norm creates a safe space for exploration of those alternate gender identities.

I'm sure you'll get other responses, but there are links in the sidebar under recreation that will cover outdoor recreation.
FWIW, I am in Pittsburgh, and there's a lot of outdoors stuff here. Are you driving or flying?

There is in no way any indication anywhere that EVERYONE is experiencing the same, as you are implying here.
>Who is stealing my wages?
You had your own experience, and you could have stopped your narrative before you added the above line.

It most certainly is not. You made that assumption. There is a wrong that needs to be righted. That doesn't mean that EVERYONE has been wronged. It's the same thinking that keeps people saying all lives matter when they hear black lives matter.
