Great news about blinding LED headlights! Progress! But one thing that sucks about this research is the fact hundreds of thousands of "anecdotal stories" and complaints from all over the world were dismissed for years.

We got a bumper crop of quince this year. I can't bake enough apple pies to use even a quarter of what we grew.

Had a nice (brief) chat with 102.1 DJ MK during the show this afternoon on the topic of dangerous LED headlights. Everyone seems to be wondering the same thing - how is it legal to blind other drivers??
Survey of over 13,000 in Europe found 80% said LED headlights were intolerable or annoying and caused 72% to take their eyes off the road. Scary numbers. Submitted to the U.N. Economic Commission for Europe by The Federation Internationale de l'Automobile. Read more data on LEDs at softlights.org

We're getting by ok watching a Michael J. Fox classic. Only THREE kids so far. The construction trailer in the driveway isn't helping.

Chucky's Punch is excellent. It reminds me of something I had as a kid, probably while visiting the U.S. since we never got to have special drinks at home, ever. But I can't figure out why it's so familiar.

After sleeping on this and thinking long and hard about what a repair might look like, I decided to just buy another set of these (really expensive) levers.
Update: contractor has f'd up. Our beautiful closet doors were supposed to be single lever pulls with magnetic catches. They drilled them out and used up our supply of normal levers. Not enough to finish now.
On the upside tub creaks were fixed by screwing additional tapcons into the tub framing.
