    the "Headline That Caught My Attention or the WTF" thread

    Driverless vehicles are a ca-zillion times safer on the roads than their human driver counterparts. And for big semi long distance trucks, there is no comparison. They are much safer, they can drive 24/7, no need for rests, no need for bathroom stops, food stops, no driver labor costs, no...

    Piping plover reprieve?

    Sorry, perhaps I didn’t phrase my question correctly. What I was trying to find out was what you think was the driving force behind changing the regulations? Was it pressure from groups that use the beaches for recreational purposes, or are/were there other stakeholders involved, who are they...

    Piping plover reprieve?

    And why do you think these regulations have been changed? And how much can they change given the U.S. has signed treaties with other nations regarding the protection of the Piping Plover?

    Piping plover reprieve?

    Will be interesting to see how this plays out. The Dongan Patent I believe gives control over some of the east end beaches to the local municipalities. So it may be up to the town to decide. Additionally, there is the Migratory Bird Act Treaty to which we are signatory to. They are also...

    Piping plover reprieve?

    I think you may be confusing “rights” and “privileges” How many miles of beach access do you enjoy the privilege of now, and how many miles of that privilege is being denied now due to the Piping Plover restrictions?

    Coronavirus

    Some of you may remember that back in the day they taught Civics in school. This class taught us about what it means to be a good citizen. One of the most important things we learned concerned vaccines, and how important it is to get them. Important not only to protect yourself, but others...

    No keepers but nice days

    Fishing deeper is the same conclusion we came to after many years of observation, and record keeping. This is by no means a scientific analysis, more antidotal, that water temperature, and salinity after severe winter conditions, have a effect on finding fish...

    Herd Immunity I think this AI explanation of Herd Immunity will answer your question. Herd immunity happens when most people in a community become immune to a contagious disease. This stops the disease from spreading easily from person to person. It creates an invisible shield that also...
