It's really hard to get up in arms and want join in being against this, mostly because there are so many oil/gas/etc pipelines present already. Not far from here is the colonial pipeline, and I would guess 98-99% of the people living here do not realize it. What makes this particular pipeline so different and how do you get people on your side when we are already surrounded by an abundance of various pipelines.

It has feldspar on the SDS. Unless they have some special feldspar it will contain more than 0.1% crystalline silica which should be labeled as potential carcinogen. If you use *a lot * of this I would recommend a dust mask. Normal home use probably won't cause any issues.

I am a foster parent and a lot of people are going to try to persuade you from doing it but if you are willing to take these kids in and accept them as your own, then do it. Just be prepared to have your heart broken when they leave, but it is the most rewarding experience you can ever have. (and the most trying time as well but well worth it)

Ever hired someone new and they turn out crazy? What would you do then? take them back or throw them over?

How do you guys feel about making results from publicly funded projects available to the public and not part of a sometimes expensive subscription? I know there is a push in the US to make federally funded projects open and to the public, and I would love to see more of the articles and publications more widely available.
