We have satellites now that can tell us where our natural resources are. My Mother worked for a company named Sverdrup, out in the desert, and they built a satellite to tell us where the natural resources are. It is awesome technology.

Finding Gold in the old days was hard, but now we can use satellites to tell us where to look for Gold, etc.

And of course we can use Gold for a lot of things, we use to it save world economies, etc. When Turkey was going broke overnight way back in about 2000, the World Bank and the IMF stepped in and they backed Turkey's currency with Gold, and they saved the people of Turkey from going into poverty overnight. We can use Gold to save world economies from collapsing, etc.

Salute,

Tony V.

Google is your friend, Barton, and my friend.

I don't think it's Kid's friend. It has lots of information that contradicts his closely held biases.

Post the link next time
I assume the link you requested was posted by Josh.
That one raised a question.
The HOA had conflicting opinions about the safety status of its buildings. One was a detailed report by a professional engineering firm pointing out structural problems. The other was an opinion by a city official that the building was “ in good shape”. It appears the HOA board did not pursue the engineering firm’s concern.

 

Nah, this likely isnt right

Repairs of this sort are reqyired all the time.
No repairs were required in this instance.
There were findings of problems that the HOA did not act on.

Wrong. Every condominium owner is a member of th HOA. The Board is member-elected. The Board’s fiduciary interest includes preparing a budget with a line item of Emergency Repairs.
If a condo owner is “ unaware” of this then he or she is stupid.

I dont think we are really in disagreement, RedState. 

The roasting of the condo developers and owners long before any investigation could be complete is just folly.  Each little tidbit supplied by the press shouldnt be jumped at and inflated.

Your last post was confusing.
Developers envision and build and turn over the property to the owners.
The owners then manage and prepare for wear and tear.

This is why we have to eliminate right wing media.

If the government can’t help, we the people must do it any way we can.

Let's go!!!

Ohio likes its sex abuse by coaches and trainers to be either entirely homo or completely hetero. Transgendered athletes will only confuse Ohio’s proud traditions of playing hide the weasel and sit out & spin with children in the handsy care of Ohio athletic programs at every level.

The law has to protect these abusive Ohioans because they really aren’t bright enough to protect themselves.

"We don't need any more activist athletes," [Representative Dan] Crenshaw said. "You know, she should be removed from the team. The entire point of the Olympic team is to represent the United States of America. That's the entire point."



Whatever happened to Citius - Altius - Fortius?

Whatever happened to the right to peaceably protest?

Fuck Crenshaw.

Yep.   In terms of avoiding speculation,  and just sticking with what's public record,  I posted this news excerpt earlier today (and see no sign Kid read it, even after he expressed a desire for specifics)....


  Rosendo Prieto, the Surfside building official at the time, told the building's condo association at a November 2018 meeting that the tower was in "very good shape," NPR reported Sunday, citing minutes from the meeting that it obtained.
Two days before the meeting, Mara Chouela, a member of the condo board, forwarded a copy of a structural engineer's report to Prieto that warned of "major structural damage," according to an email released by the town on Saturday.
"Structural engineer report was reviewed by Mr. Prieto," the minutes cited by NPR said, in an apparent reference to a 2018 report from structural engineer Frank Morabito, which detailed cracking and dilapidating concrete in the parking garage underneath the tower, among other significant issues. "It appears the building is in very good shape," the minutes noted, according to NPR...   


It appears the HOA were guided by Prieto's grossly inaccurate summary of the structural engineering report.

No using the Olympic team as a platform - period.
