Never heard of Beenoulli's Principle before, thanks for sharing.
At night cool your house down by opening windows and using windows fans. I have a two story house. Heat rises so I'll place window fans blowing out in the upstairs windows and fans blowing in upstairs. In the morning close up the windows and close curtains and shades over the windows that receive direct sunlight. If you have a room that gets hotter than the others shut the door to that room or hang a curtain over the doorway. My hot water tank is in a first floor room so I isolate that room and leave the windows open. Have a ceiling fan? Make sure it's blowing in the right direction. Most have a switch so you can alternate direction it blows the air. Not always practical but soaking your feet in cool water will lower your body temperature. Much like coolant cools a combustible engine car your blood circulates through your body distributing heat. Personally I avoid using AC while driving as much as I can. It's my opinion that when we get used to such comforts we suffer without them. I do have a window unit but use it only on the hottest nights. One last thought. Some lights or appliances in your house may give off a lot of heat, feel around them to find which ones do and switch them off. You can't do anything about your refrigerator (gives off a lot) I had a plasma TV that felt like a space heater and also used a lot of electricity
Also worth noting the canned laughter began with radio programs. The Wikipedia page on laugh tracks has a well detailed explanation on the evolution of this under History In The United States on it's Laugh Tracks page
It's weird, I grew up watching shows with laugh tracks but now they make me cringe. I can watch reruns of those old shows no problem but if I see a new show and it has a laugh track I'm immediately put off.
Yeah that's what I've been doing. Thank you

What, the pharaoh didn't eat the cheese in the afterlife? It's like leaving cookies and milk for santa and the mf-er didn't bother to eat it
Thanks. They were actually great people so I didn't take it too hard
I'll bet one of the two candidates could easily answer both of those questions
I used to work with Croatians and Slovenians that spoke English fluently but switch to their language abruptly as I was standing there. I thought that rude of them
Very few people have that opinion.
Nuclear plants also have to built adjacent to reliable water supply. I'll bet the land is more expensive and a bigger environmental impact whereas the location for solar is more flexible
Thanks, great list!
My contribution:
Rude Boy (1980): Lots of Clash live footage with the social upheaval in London as a background. Or is it the other way around? Must see for any Clash fan. Lots of unintelligible dialog from mumbling Brits and their crazy slang. Currently on Night Flight pay streaming service
Times Square (1980) not sure if this is something you want on your list but you might enjoy. Two girls form a punk band and shit goes sideways. Featuring a young Tim Curry
The Dicks From Texas (2014) documentary on The Dicks. Gotta admit I haven't seen this one yet.
If you aren't aware already Night Flight is an excellent streaming service specializing in Rock stuff. They're having a sale $50 for a year, as far as I know it's still available at that price. In the 80's it was a late night cable show I never got to watch as we didn't have cable. The original episodes are on the streaming service. Despite showing a lot of main stream stuff it was pretty radical for it's time. New Wave Theater was a segment within the show that had some underground stuff until it's host got stabbed to death

According to the FBI crime has been on a steady decline since the late eighties. The Freakonomics guys credited things like higher incarceration and legalized abortion. Another factor others came up with is the removal of lead from gasoline. It happened not only in the US but other countries also. Apparently airborne lead isn't so healthy for young developing brains and the drop in crime began when people born at the time of the ban were reaching their adult years
What community owned newspaper do you read?
" it was just the oligarchs exchanging property among themselves." What is that supposed to mean?
I prefer the original black and white version as it matches the era much of the (non OB) soundtrack comes from but watchable gonna do?

By Tuesday morning, Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose, who was the most visible face of Issue 1, might have been worried. Before noon, he ducked a meeting with reporters. That afternoon, he was attacked by an Arizona Republican who came to Ohio to campaign for Issue 1. That evening, after the blo...
