@sheseala I call BS. Author chose Dolly as click bait, then reaped the whirlwind and backtracked. Could reflect instead and maybe learn something.

@Alfred so that would have to follow the contours of the ground. Have you got the processing horsepower to calculate a sea level trench?

@Alfred I forgot to specify trench dimensions: 50 feet wide, 10 feet deep.

@Alfred as a thought experiment, how many people would be required to dig a trench across the United States connecting the Pacific and Atlantic oceans, given a century timeframe. They can have shovels.

@S_r_stone @ToolPackinMama that's a feature of memes: they want to spread. Takes an effort to slow them down. See The Selfish Gene and The Meme Machine. bookshop.org/p/books/the-meme-

Woke with a sinus thing going on, first since 2020. Nope, nuh uh, nyhet. Jeeves! Coffee!

@damselfly59 That is exactly the issue. Hydraulics failed and I don't have the means to crack the thing in half to get at the seals.

Not gonna hold my breath but maybe, not for the first time, might have someone who will resurrect the dying tractor. Cross your fingers and spit on your hat.

@BrentSullivan Cynical-me is sort of okay paying to stop pipeline projects but I would rather the petro industry did this INEVITABLE transition the right way for the right reasons. Le sigh.

So I'm walking the dog in town and we wait at crosswalks for cars to go past. Confuses like half the drivers and some get irate because I don't know why, don't care. I want the dog to always wait to cross a street, especially around cars. Period. Btw same for kids. 🤷

@EnochianEntropy fwiw this house did the same and I trenched around, put in for real French drain, tied all the gutters into PVC pipes down away from the house and lo, the sump pump hath quieted.
