You can get poutine at a few places in philadelphia by the way... though it is usually lacking IMO. The cheese curd isnt even always proper curd. That said I do love good cheese curd in any form.

fix the problem by adding stop light sensors so buses dont have to stop and by upping the required number of people to ride int he lane to 6.

Snooty is half the reason anyone visits french culture in the first place! If you dont want snooty just go to mcdonalds and order some french fries :)

@noelle Nah, just change the location of the meeting to your bedroom, problem solved.

Thank you, though im not seeing the text of the bill at that link. It appears to be similar to the OP, a statement that an injustice is happening without a source pointing to the specific wording.

As a general rule I try to find the original source (in this case the actual text of the bill) before taking sides on any issue. Since LGBT rights are a top concern for me I would love to find that text.

As mentioned earlier, this is mostly covered by Polish-language sites, but I've found this article about it:

While I dont support the bus option since it still relies on the large footprint of streets it doesnt need to be subject to traffic as proven by the dutch. In the netherlands buses and other vehicals with large capacity have their own dedicated lanes. They also have sensors at stop lights that ensure the light is always green when a bus approaches it.

So using such a system a bus is guaranteed to never be slowed down no matter what the traffic is at the time.

@shoshin Thats not a city :) By any american definition that is a suburb :)

@louisrcouture

If we are talking anctient forrests on the scale of the redwoods that are many hundreds if not thousands of years old then transplanting them generally isnt an option. Their root systems are massive and its about mor ethan just the trees.

That said I dont know what forests shoshin is specifically concerned with. Personally I didnt know there were ancient forests in Quebec like that.

As described this is completely appalling. Any chance you can link us to the text that states your claims, ideally translated. I usually like to confirm stuff like this before I take a stance though I dont doubt what your saying to be true.

@stux

> TCE contamination is a major concern for human health [...] In 2014, the International Agency for Research on Cancer updated its classification of trichloroethylene to Group 1.

> The demand for TCE as a degreaser began to decline in the 1950s in favor of the less toxic 1,1,1-trichloroethane [...] widely used for cleaning metal parts and circuit boards. The Montreal Protocol targeted it as one of those compounds responsible for ozone depletion and banned its use beginning in 1996.

> and as a result TCE has experienced some resurgence in use as a degreaser.

Pick your poison...

I prefer cities with high crime rates, feels more like home.. I just cant sleep without the sound of the lamenting of women and the screams of our enemies outside my window.

@louisrcouture

@Phil There are always exceptions on both sides of course... But for the most part it is an issue that is more or less split down political lines in my experience.

@shoshin

It is a beautiful city. Looks like I need to push it up on my list of places to visit.

@louisrcouture

@Phil There is certainly a crowd that is fed up with masks, and the such... pretty much the same crowd that were trump supporters, so.. like 30% or 40% or something of the population, which is significant. But their angst isnt so much directed at the school board as it is government regulations as a whole.
