    I am confused about what local orders would be in place on July 1? Isn’t he saying time to get in line with what is going on all over the country?

    @lufins-dad said in Lumber: 54,700,000,000 board feet of lumber was used by the US in 2017. That's 168,827,161 cubic yards of lumber. Think about that for a minute... That depot is nothing. That depot is one among many. Lumber is stacking up. I'm thinking it's a trucking issue...

    Epic's blatant flaunting of the rules is typical of the white privilege of companies led by billionaire straight white male CEOs, such as Epic's Mr Sweeney. Contrast with Apple's CEO, who is gay and only recently and barely a billionaire. Tim Cook understands what it is to struggle under the American straight white male hegemony. I would like to know how many diverse people are in Epic's C-suite and board of directors. I have a very strong feeling that Mr Sweeney and his company are racist, and I for one think that racism is wrong, full stop.

    @doctor-phibes said in Changes at Basecamp: We have a guy at work who has always made a point of responding to any personal stuff on email with a terse 'please do not include me in these non work-related discussions', frequently cc'ing (friendly) managers. It's become a bit of a trademark for him. He recently celebrated his 30-year anniversary, and everybody posted some nice things. He then sent an email out to everybody, thanking them for their kind words and the gift. He received a ton of emails back, cc'd to all, saying 'please do not include me on these non work-related emails'

"For those of you enrolled in our frequent flyer program, you've earned 68 million miles on this voyage." "We'll take those miles," spacecraft commander Col. Mike Hopkins said moments after landing. "Are they transferrable?"
