With a bit of Googling: it must have been. It was in Miami, and there are two dates in May 1995. 99% sure it was one of those. Wildflowers plus the hits!

Ooh, not sure. It was right around the time that album came out, so it might have been, or the tour just before that. It was a birthday present for Kim.

Prince (x3)
REM
The Boss
Tom Petty (snap!)

They mean 2*pm*, surely?

Yes. “Social proximity” will presumably lead to bubble networks., which is part of the wider problem. The dream is something that allows a wide variety of responses but somehow keeps them civil, so there is genuine discourse. Not easy though!

I would be nice to see any of these opponents propose a workable alternative, in more than vague terms “A development model that emphasizes affordability.” Sure, but what?

We had about a thousand people in little old Hopewell. Very good natured.

And the article says that it will power a desalination plant, which *produces* fresh water. But fresh water is needed to supply the power plant, which powers the desalination plant, which… it can’t be circular, surely?

So many questions. *Is* it using treated wastewater? If freshwater, that’s a significant environmental concern, as it is mixed with the salt water thus no longer usable. The article keeps talking about how much salt water is available, but that is not the limiting factor at all.

It could be seen as a microcosm for the national strategy. Sherrill’s campaign appears exactly what I worried it would be: anti-Trump, vague platitudes about ‘fighting for NJ’. Nothing that signals substantive change in the Democrat approach. What’s the big Sherrill policy idea I am missing?

Well if you got 60 plants out of it, you should be good!

A challenge that many newish milkweed growers face is planting just a few, and having the caterpillars eat everything and then starve! Is there a place you can transfer them to before that happens?

Also, there weren’t drones, then there were a lot, and then they went away again and are still gone even though we sometimes look (and can still see the usual airplanes). It would be a weirdly precise delusion!

But then you wouldn’t hear it clearly it distinctly, and certainly with a substantial lag, and yet in most cases you could hear the motor sounding much closer and more immediate.

Nothing that would convince a skeptic. The main piece of evidence in my mind is that most appeared to be at a height of 3–4 times a tall tree. This is way too low for an aircraft, unless it is actually way in the distance and only appears low.

Or, you could propose that both I and my wife (another scientist), who jobs happen to involve observing, counting and tracking things, were victims of mass suggestion!

They look different, sound different and fly different. I live under the Trenton-Mercer airport flyway, and we get planes going over on the regular. Plus the drones were there in abundance (4-5x as many lights in the sky) and then they stopped, whereas the planes are more or less constant.

Scientist here, and hater of all conspiracy theories. There *was* a surge of drones. Why is not clear. Some may have been hobbyist, especially towards the end, but it’s unlikely most were. Flying at night in mostly straight lines. In open areas (e.g., Mercer Meadows) one could see 5 or 6 at once.
