Remind me in 10 years how effective they are when little kids pick up unexploded remnants and get injured, etc...

Hey, that's me!!
I live here. 115F with full sun feels worse than 115F with cloud cover.
This was awesome! I got so invested in the story! You landed on a goldmine with this one!
I went in for seconds and landed here: http://firedrake.org/roger/csarchive/universe/states.htm This is sooo cool and I don't even know what it is! Has anyone heard of Crimson Skies computer game??
Its premise seems to be that America failed. The link took me to the write-ups of what happened to the states. Example: "Montana and Wyoming have largely fragmented. All government is local, and the locals seem determined to keep it that way. The population is completely disgusted with national government and aims to show that local government can perform far better than any distant bureaucracy. Portions of Wyoming and Montana have been claimed by other states, but by and large this is the most lawless and best armed stretch of the West."
Another: "The bulk of Nevada is desert, not even worth the effort of laying claim to. Most of the inhabitants southeast of the Sierra Nevadas are desert air pirates, scrub ranchers, and rattlesnakes."
Not gonna lie...it got me at Air Pirates!
It sent me to someone's obituary.
Thanx! I moved the lens backward very quickly while taking the shot to get the movement effect.
$500K+ house at 7% interest is $3,300/month payment (not including other fees) to give some perspective. It's eye watering.
Home prices have ticked down in Denver, but make no mistake: Buying a house here still requires a lot of cash. Within the city limits, median sale prices are $578,000, which would require a minimum down payment of $17,340 (3 percent) for a conventional loan if you have excellent credit. And to avoid paying mortgage insurance you’ll need to come up with a 20 percent down payment, which adds up to more than $115,000.

Average salary in Denver is $78K. (source: https://www.payscale.com/research/US/Location=Denver-CO/Salary)
Sucks that this is the new normal somehow...
How am I surprisingly not surprised that I'm surprised I'm not surprised by this?
Ha! That's funny. I almost said "pierced" but went with "punched" instead. I think that word was in my head after reading this: "A close inspection of the following photograph from the lower temple illustrates that the holes were 'drilled' and not just randomly punched as one might assume." from a website I just read: http://www.ancient-wisdom.com/maltamnajdra.htm because I couldn't remember which temple I took this picture at.
About time.
