Why the hell are they widening it? Wait, I bet I know: they want less traffic! I bet they think more lanes = less cars as if the population will always remain constant. If they want less traffic, they should build infrastructure for other modes of transport; but I guess everyone reading this already knows this. Funny that the people making these decisions don't...

The purpose of the project is to reduce congestion by increasing capacity, improving connectivity of the highway system, and preserving acceptable facility operation.

Yep... imbeciles.

Construction Cost: $126,860,000

How much does yearly maintenance of a train track cost?

But some say the replacement won’t hold the same symbolic weight as the two lone trees. “[The new trees] will only be on one side of the highway and most travelers are probably going to miss it since it’s just going to be a bunch of trees,” said Michael Ballard, president of the Historic Highway 99 Association of California

Though of course no one really knows what will actually happen because there are too many unknown variables.

It was fun thinking of it. Chill out.

Thread to vent about the dangerous and inefficient infrastructure you have to deal with.

 

Currently studying for an exam tomorrow, and I now realize why I'm always so sleepy in class: the prof. speaks sooo sloowllyy with pauses - in-between - most words. I can't keep focused because of that; thankfully, he has narrated powerpoints that I can download and watch... at 3x normal speed. Which is nice because a 37 minute video is now 12 minutes, but goddamn it makes classes so rough.

 

Using an oven to season never really worked for me; it used too much electricity and the waste heat made my living space super uncomfortable.

So, I decided to try using butane cans meant for hotpots. They can be bought at most Asian focused grocery stores and I bought the torch adapter from amazon; I don't think it really matters which one you get, seems most of them are from the same manufacturer. Probably also have them at some restaurant focused stores.

My process was the same as if you were using an oven; a thin layer of canola oil (or whatever you use) and then blast it with the butane torch. I found I needed to get real close until the oil "dries" (in the right light you see crystal like shapes, I think that's what it looks like when it polymerizes). After it's 'dried' I apply another layer and repeat. I did this about 10 times I think. Same as always, don't apply too much or you'll get sticky areas that will take more time to polymerize.

It's quite laborious, but it had great results though I think I'll have to do another 10-20 layers to get a really good seasoning. As it is now, eggs still stick a little in some places but it's still a far cry from what it was before.

I also want to get some canola oil spray since that would make reapplying a cinch, but I can't seem to find it any more. Do you have it in your area? I hope it wasn't discontinued. :(

I hope this helps, happy cooking!
