Re: TX: all our wind turbines are obsolete
But is the expense of replacement worth it for a possible 15% efficiency gain? I'd think not... run em' until they burn up! Then upgrade to the new kind. The 15% efficiency gain was when you deploy these vertical mills in pairs, so they play off each other. 15% efficiency gain over deploying them s...

Re: TX: Lt Gov Patrick says not enough Senate votes to pass Con Carry

Re: Need a new gun belt
I had a couple of Wilderness Instructor belts, but the velcro wore out and the stitching (or fabric itself?) started to unravel eventually. As a birthday present, got turned loose on Tucker Gunleather's website. Ordered an HF-1 with retention, and some decorative flair, along with a gun belt. Wow. J...

Who wants to fly over there and be a test case, see if any of the local law enforcement have been notified about the changes in the law?

Huge changes to Puerto Rico
Reciprocity with all US states & territories, shall issue firearms permits, all permits (to own) explicitly include the right to carry concealed. Some additional details in the article, but those are the big items IMO https://www.ammoland.com/2019/12/gun-law-in-puerto-rico-to-respect-the-second-...

Re: TX: Houston CHL sentenced to 20 years for murdering attorney over dispute over handicapped parking spot
I broke my foot in Dec 2017, had surgery to put in a plate, and went through three months of crutches, walking boot, physical therapy. After that, I was told it was healed, but it might take as much as a year to feel totally normal. A few months later I was on antidepressants and voluntarily went ba...
