Based on today’s downed bollard I’m not sure they do. Looks like there are just some simple bolts

Grandma has entered hospice and is refusing further treatments. I’ve never known anyone with less joie de vivre, for which we blame the Nazis/the holocaust, but the flip side is that she is so totally unafraid. She wrote this poem a while back and I think of it whenever she talks about death.

Classic “make your data so good that you don’t need to do close up analysis on it” example. You can see the fiscal cliff at 400%FPL super clearly.

I’m coming around on this being the crux of the shutdown fight.
