How about taxing owners of unoccupied homes?

In the Vietnam war, fragging the officers had a big impact.

There is a brutal man with a gun, controlling and threatening a group of good citizens with consciences. He’s going to do terrible things to them, and make them do terrible things themselves.

They have him outnumbered, but he has the gun. If they rush him, they can easily defeat him. But, the first one or two or three or four people to move forward will be shot and probably die painfully. Going first is going to cost a terrible price and you don’t know for sure that anyone else will follow you, that your sacrifice will be for anything at all.

You feel a little paralyzed and at the same time ashamed you are just standing there.

What happens next?

Hydrogen? Helium? Hot air?

Christian feudalism imagined Islam as it’s enemy (first thing that popped into my mind, I’m not an expert)

Link to book one?

Everything stank of stale smoke

People are naturally resistant when told “what to do” so advice isn’t often very helpful.

Can be kind of mean spirited

Love hurts

When you do what you love, work is like play time.

Somedays, I would spend 4-5 hours at the library, just to figure out one thing.

Loved my clapper. More reliable at turning the lights on and off than Google Home.
