If you're still on the birdsite for whatever reason, instead of posting links to your tweets here, copy the link to your toots HERE and post them there. It drives traffic from there to here!

The government has been trying to sell off the Federal Helium Reserve for a few years now, but the sale has been on hold while they try to figure out how to explain this situation to buyers.
