Bathtub-curve is actually quite universal.
Just noticed, that both new and 'old enough' hardware comes with high price, while all the rest in the middle available lot cheaper...
Ps.: I should have stocked up some C64 when the neighbours got rid of them...

It's snowing like crazy here. We're forecast to get over 10 inches. This is the first winter in several years that we've gotten snow in my little town here in Kansas.
edit: The snow is still coming down like crazy. I'm thinking we may have another 10 to 12 inches by morning.

Lucky break to have randomly found out a stretch for sciatic just when I needed it. Worked out perfectly.

Sure.Tom.G said:
Sit straight. Then put one foot on top of the ( obviously )opposite knee. While in that position, place both hands below the calf . Then pull your two hands upwards, as if intending to move your calf upward, while moving your head in the direction of the calf.
Repeat with the opposite foot.
Repeat a few times.
Please let me know if my explanation wasn't clear .
Hope it works for you.

Which calf?WWGD said:
The horizontal or the vertical one?

Not sure what you mean. My understanding is the calf is in the back of the leg, behind the shin .Tom.G said:
Just put one foot in the opposite knee, then put both your hands behind/below your shin ( I guess as if to offset their weight) and pull upward, while moving and stretching your torso towards it.

I think he's asking, if you have your right foot on the floor and your left foot on your right knee, do you pull on your left or right calf?
I'm guessing the right one, the one with the foot on the floor. Then the folding forward motion you're doing with your upper body is stretching your lower back with your hips kept open by the position of the left leg over your knee.

Ah, no, the calf of the leg bent over the knee, not the one with the foot on the floor. Good catch. Edit::aka the vertical one.Ibix said:

Or , equivalent, the calf that includes on its lower end, the foot that's up in the air, and not the calf that includes the foot touching the floor.
Phew, include that in the list of things much easier to show visually rather than in words.
Hope this clarified things.
