You know, I was lurking around in all, and saw this and immediately thought, this is wildly interesting. I've played since the original and never knew why. So, it's super lame. Trademarks. A communications director said it would be hard to get the TM in USA, so Capcom voted to change it to Resident Evil internally. The name was picked because it took place in a mansion. You are correct in that, BIOHAZARD refers to the end game with Umbrella.

somebody better tell Oklo then. they're spending almost 2B to build one in Oak Ridge lol. also, that 97% comes with a LOT of caveats. regardless, nuclear is such a great base load for the US, and we need to focus on grid supplementation to ease base load operations, anyway.

The issue with copper clad when it comes to DC is voltage drop issues. But that's just DC in a nutshell lol.

Side note, promise it's the last thing; southern goodbyes am I right? If you leave CTBC and go underneath the bridge, you'll be on a greenway straight to new Finlay Park paths to the Vista

Make sure to come on a Tuesday. Tuesday night rides are sick downtown. We go by the river a lot. The bike collective is very dear to my heart. They got broken into a few months ago. People suck. But, as always, not a single one of those dudes is letting it show. Always smiling and helping the community.

Ah! Friend! I think I know where this is! No worries, I live in Cola Town. Not trying to be weird. I love venomous plants and was so delighted to learn SC had native ones!

I wish the US would get off it's ass and ban plastic bottles and only have cans.

Same! When I looked up the salary of farmers in Denmark, I was astonished. Such a glaring difference. I hope all of our situations get better in their respective regards. I hope you have a fantastic...evening? I think midnight, maybe?

Firstly, let me say thank you for such a thoughtful response. Second, I had no idea farming in Denmark was so lucrative. In America, they are poor, usually on government assistance, and strong armed by a corporation for quotas, or certain agricultural practices. E.g. One of my friends cannot let it get out that they have been working on a pest resistant crop for a certain area, because the "start" was a seed that is the IP of some corporation.

A lot of the farmers I know in America hate the pesticide and fertilizer industry. My friend has tried sustainable growth and natural pest deterrents and was sent a cease and desist, because they used some land for crops to do it. Even though their yield was, I believe, equal to previous years.

The farmers I know, and that they know, for into it for the love of it, but they have just been consistently screwed on all fronts by Congress and corporations.

Again, thank you for such a thoughtful response. I learned so much and I'm so sorry that it has gotten that way in Denmark. I know not enough, to argue against you and I apologize if any of my responses came across as ignorant.
