"Scientitst" and financial interests combined with long term problems and short term lifes result in in a bad combination.

By the way salt deposits may actually turn out to be not such a good ides turning out after just a few decades:

Seems to be a kind of passive agressive no-skirt dress code.
Additionally, no cleaner wants to dust on top of the timbers.

This complex seems to be a kind of "drawing the line" problem. Place every living being in a line from complex/intelligent for example human/primates... to non-complex/non-intelligent such as mycoplasma , viruses ... then draw a line defininig one as non-human person with personal rights and and the other as non-human-non-person not having any rights...

I wouldn’t even touch this conmplex with a barge pole, as you would surely end up defining bacon-, beef-, and chicken-rights, continuing with vegetable and mushroom right... or ending at the other extreme ...

Anyway, a single orangutan having "primate" rights, finally denies creationism in argentinia, at least legally.

Just be waiting for other non-human persons of other species and non-human robot persons... I look forward to the future...

I have to assume that base jumping is extremely boring if it has to be spiced it up with this kind of "thrilling" extra-entertainment.

Now i would like to know which microcar's suspension is capable of taking a 2 meter drop and still being able to drive...
Which reminds me of the structural damage you can observe the "stunt charger" takes at some of "General Lee's" landings.

The first window from the Casa Batlló is much more remarkable than expected on the first sight.
This window of Casa Batlló represents the mouth of a dragon such as the roof of this building represents the back of the dragon.
The single window panels may be slid upwards as in the case of US-style sliding windows. However if you slide all window panels open there is a continuous opening from the right stone frame to the left stone frame without any intermediate struts. In this way the dragon may completely open his mouth.
For me it is more an inhabitable piece of art than just a house.

An incubator for butterfly eggs and chrysalis... On the shelf you may store the chrysalis, while the butterflies may hatch inside the glass cabinet. The glass cabinet may protect the butterflies from being disturbed or eaten by birds or laboratoy cats...

In the bowel on the left buterfly food may be stored to be able to feed the newly hatched butterflies with honey or nectar.

Fingerprint-pliers very useful to take fingerprints form feculent arrested subjects, a pocile officer rejects to even touch. The finger tip is gripped with the pliers, so that the finger pad is surrounded by the ringlike structure. A police officer may now press the finger pad onto an ink pad. The officer may also control finger-printing process with the pliers. No need to touch suspect suspects and no more inky officer fingers!
