Meat assults are not a great thing to learn.

How old are you? The Cuban missile crisis was far worse than this - but 1962 was 62 years ago - not many people alive are old enough to remember how bad it was then. For most of us that is just something for history while the things happening today are real to us.

Odds are this will pass, but just like in 1962 nobody knew for sure we were not on the brink of war, I cannot tell you for sure.

Better yet get a bike (or ebike) which is much less pollution and improves your health.

Why? there isn't much difference in cost possible as site built is mostly using pre cut materials as well.they go up faster but don't save that much when you demand quality. They also are very limited in floorplans. Anyone actually in construction understands where the real problems are and they are not things modular can solve.

You are overstating it. all evidence I can find is only a small percentage are not guilty. Of course that small possibility is enough for me to be against the death pentalty. If we had a way to be 100% sure of guilt I'd favor death but since we don't I can't go that far.

Are you sure what this is? 20 years ago I had a ticket for an out headlight and when I went to check in they said 'why are you here, just go to the clerk and pay your fine'. No fine was on the ticket but the clerk could looh it up. I did go to the judge and explained that I just didn't get the fix verrified in time and ask the judge for mercy because I was a student. Got my $70 fine reduced to $35.

your milage may vary but I expect something like this.

If you know a lawer ask, but odds are they wilh say you are better off without them for something this small.

Extreme ironing. I don't see the point of dragging a board and iron anywhere. Even at home I'd rather wear wrinkles than open that board. (which is why I buy perminant press church clothes)

Sure, but where does the energy for that light come from? If the answer is burning things (this is the most likely answer today!) then you are making the world worse. Renewable answers all go back to the sun so why not use the sun directly and avoid all the inefficiencies from turning the sun into electric and then back into light? Which leaves nuclear - which is dieing because of expense.

That depends on how well it works but assuming it isn't too much less effective I'm in

The people saying this know nothing about construction or what innovations are needed. Humans have been building housing for thousands of years and we have learned a lot over that time. Anyone asking for a technological overhaul generally doesn't even know what we have learned and so is just going to make mistakes (sometimes deadly - there are many ways a house can kill) that someone in the industry would avoid. Generally they come up with something that costs more while being worse because they have no idea where the real problems are and so didn't optimize it.

Everything you do to become a monopoly is legal (or at least should be - there are lots of illegal things you can do along the way but for discussion lets assume/pretend they don't do those things). However it is not legal to be a monopoly.
