  1. Like she said, she took the polite option. I read his SOTU and it was FOS.
  2. Just seen Nancy Pelosi rip up a copy of Trump's State of The Union Address this morning. November is going to be one acrimonious election. The Dems have got to keep together in their primaries and not cut each other up bickering in their selection process.
  3. Iron is a structurally weak metal compared to steel, so I could only see it being used for something like ornamental castings in/on the building.
  4. I'm guessing it occurs when you wake up suddenly from a bad dream before the chemicals that relax your muscles have dissipated.
  5. This is the general pattern, apparently. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collapse_of_the_World_Trade_Center#/media/File:NorthWTCcollapse.png
  6. If their beliefs aren't based on facts then facts aren't going to convince them otherwise.
  7. Do you think it's perhaps better if the American public pass their own judgement in November?
  8. CharonY covers pretty much what I've read. It does seem that chlorinating is an excuse for mitigating sloppy practices since the EU sees no reason to do it and they get along just fine not doing it. If US poultry farmers/processors have confidence in their practices, why can't they send their meat over unchlorinated? This is what crosses my mind.
  9. This is the EU position.
  10. They are restricted now.
  11. That article references academics who looked into it. You were obviously trying to cause offence.
  12. It appears not. Site won't let me quote: https://www.foodmanufacture.co.uk/Article/2019/09/UK-Government-accused-of-trying-to-lower-food-safety-expectations-after-Brexit
  13. What's the assessment on its fatality rate? Is it high for that type?
  14. My knowledge is too superficial to elaborate but it contains energies, or field excitations, that are not quantized and therefore cannot normally interact with particles of the standard model and if they do, only briefly when they combine. As to their nature, I might guess that they could be called sub-quantum excitations or particles.
  15. Vacuum energy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_energy
  16. Yes, click the link to get the live version.
  17. Thank you both.
  18. Is "the primary" who runs for president?
  19. Apparently, traffic flow in his area there is "glacial".
  20. I added a bit more to my post. You just get used to it.
  21. Yeah, in metric, I would expect maybe 2mm-3mm off each face on planed, so 50 mm roughsawn wood will be 45mm-46mm planed. If you wanted 1inch finished you would have to pay for the next size stock up and have all that waste to pay for
  22. I'm guessing you are asking for planed or finished wood. The initial rough-sawn stock wood will be exactly an inch or whatever but then you'll lose a 1/16thish on each side for the planing. If you want the right dimensions try getting the rough--sawn. Any jobbing joiner or woodworker knows this. The people suing were obviously woodworking neophytes.
  23. In conjunction with topical applications it is documented, although not conclusive:
