How can you distinguish between native and alien UFOs? Once you’ve identified where it is from, is it still a UFO?
- Comment on why does every single flashlight have multiple settings that you have to scroll through? 2 months ago:
My Pretzel headlamp turns on and off in steady full beam. Can choose to cycle through low beam and flashing if I want to with quick depressions of button. Switch to red light and back by depressing and holding button. Sometimes use low beam to save battery, red light to keep from loosing night vision, flashing to be seen, not see with.

Thanks.
This reads as a classic project management failure. Lack of stakeholder engagement impacting the forecasting of requirements, leading to insufficient resources allocated, human and material. Lack of training prior to rollout. Inadequate quality control mechanisms relating to vendor performance. Poor monitoring post implementation leading to slow corrective actions. All of the above led to inefficiencies causing costs to exceed revenues.
Self sustaining budget was a secondary goal. The paper does not delve into the stated primary goal, increased safety. Were speeds and or accidents reduced. If accidents were reduced, were costs related to emergency services and infrastructure repair also reduced. What was the total impact to municipalities budget, not just the judicial system.

Where they winning cases on merit or just so many cases filled that the court could not process the number of cases? I would be interested to read up on that if you had something on that.
I know of a situation where a municipality had not done the required traffic survey to justify the speed limit. In that case, if challenged in court, tickets get dismissed. One individual knew the law, was constantly cited, kept going to court to get the tickets dismissed. Eventually the individual filed a RICO suit against the government that forced them to do the traffic study, which resulted in the speed limit being raised.

All true. It could be a positive step but very small change by itself. Police are one part of criminal justice system that need massive reform.
- Comment on There you go little guy 2 months ago:
In California the duration of yellow is determined by a formula incorporating the roads speed limit. If yellow light duration is less than the formula would set, the traffic ticket is dismissed. I’m guessing most states have a similar law.

Going the posted speed limit is not going slow.
Speed is a leading factor in collisions resulting in serious injuries and death.

If speed cameras are less biased than humans when issuing tickets, I see them as a fairer method of speed enforcement. Also safer for POC to receive a ticket in the mail, as opposed to a roadside traffic stop.

My experience as a janitor while in college, later in life as a youth sports fields director, corroborated by friends who work for state parks; men’s bathrooms more vandalism/breakage, women’s bathrooms more bodily secretions on floor, walls and ceilings.

I put on my hooded terry cloth bathrobe that simultaneously dries hair, head, neck, torso and legs above the knees. Wipe face, lower legs and feet. Remove robe and dry genitals and butt crack.

- Comment on Why do boomers hate squirrels so much? 3 months ago:
I don’t hate them, but since grey ground squirrels are a primary vector for Bubonic plague in the southwest US, I prefer to keep them distanced.
Also don’t have a bird feeder, planted natives to provide food and habitat.
