Old habit. Wouldn't mind finding out about the area I'm messing about in. When I'm in a new place I always like to :DaveC426913 said:

Oh, it seemed to be a valid way to differentiate between a 19yo and a 69yo, inspect the endeavors they pursue.DaveC426913 said:
What's wrong with that sign is that it's discriminating against land mines! Poor land mines who sooo much wish to enter.Vanadium 50 said:

A spot of excavation could dig them out of their problem.berkeman said:
In a nice display of synchronicity, land mines would also solve their problem.sophiecentaur said:
Yup, just like what might happen when they try to open that gate.gmax137 said:

Here's a picture with the new, longer gates, which now indeed meet in the middle. I looked closer at the rails and rollers along the sides of the fence, and I still don't see anything that will hold the gates open when rolled up the slopes. Maybe they are relying on the friction of the rollers and the rolling resistance of the new bigger rubber tires. I guess I could sneak over and spray some WD-40 on the rollers and rails just for fun...Baluncore said:
LOL, er, no. I'd sure like to watch the first few crews try to open those gates in the dark early in the morning at start of shift in the demo of the old building. Trying to push them in the way you describe, then uttering some expletives, then pushing one sideways up the slope and watching it roll back down the slope on its own... "Hey you two, come here and hold these ***** gates open!"Vanadium 50 said:
Nononono, you misunderstand the goal. Just look at the latest updates from the IT job market. The idea is to discourage people _leaving_.berkeman said:
Makes one wonder - if apparently not the universal language of math - what language the architectural blue prints were rendered in...theycallmevirgo said:
