  1. romad1, quick (hopefully) question. Are you familiar with the Soviet RADAR system OTH-B that was used during the cold war? Shortwave buffs have noticed a "woodpeckering" effect similar to the scanning that was used. The system has been offline since 1989. It seems to have come back to life in recent weeks on the 11 MHz band. I'm not a shortwave buff but spent enough time in radio stations to know enough to be dangerous. Anyway, a friend reposted a FB post by a Bruce Linder, who among other things is a HAM operator. He noticed the woodpecker effect about the time of the Russian invasion. He's also referenced the proximities of the OTH-B transmitters to both Chernobyl and Zaphorizhahia nuclear complexes. Interesting and scary stuff if you are into conspiracy theories. https://www.facebook.com/macbruce
  2. And take away their voting privileges. Permanently
  3. One more for the Trump Fanboy... Dispute this...
  4. Prove this wrong...
  5. Probably saw it coming...,
  6. Let me also clarify. I'm not in favor of term limit laws. I just wish the citizenry of this nation would take it upon themselves to say enough is enough and not follow blindly.
  7. He's a liar who promotes the lie because his constituency believes it and he wants to continue on the "government and big business" sponsored gravy train. To me it's worse than being on welfare...
  8. That's all Trumplicans are good for.....
  9. Now spread some of that $$ around...
  10. According to research released by AAA gas prices spiked in July of 2008 at $4.11 a gallon (who was in the WH then?)Crude was 147.87 a barrel. $4.00 in 2008 is equivalent to $5.27 today. People are driving more than what they were last time we saw $2 a gallon. The liberal Pew Research Center explains this so even conservatives can understand it.. https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2021/12/09/gasoline-costs-more-these-days-but-price-spikes-have-a-long-history-and-happen-for-a-host-of-reasons/ BTW I'm old enough to remember the Arab Oil Embargo in 1973-74...Wonder who was in office then?
  11. I guess Alito had never heard of 1968 and Nixon’s deal with Turkey….
  12. I'm to the point of wanting to lock Manfred, Clark and 1 lawyer from each side in a hotel room. Pipe in "music"from than dang drummer in Cleveland. No one gets out until they have an agreement
  13. My wife in a weak moment got the Delta AMEX which gives her PreCheck, since I'm on the card as well I get the upgrade most of the time. Pre Pandemic, she flew more than me for work. I think a few years ago Clear was also good to navigate the security lines at Tiger games. I know at DTW folks who subscribe tend to get routed to the employee lines if they are flying Delta.
  14. That's the joy of programs like Clear and Pre Check. However due to staffing and budget concerns the savvy prepared traveler is often bunched in with folks flying Air Trailways (worse than Air Greyhound). Having spent a huge amount of time either working or manning the volunteer information desks at DTW, I've learned some patience. But still have little for those who don't read signs and demand to be led by the hand.
  15. I think I've got it straight, my neighbor is a jerk because he uses his leaf blower in the morning, therefore I should continue to let my dog bark all night.
