In 1895, in the remote West Kootenays of British Columbia, a narrow gauge railway was built to reach the richest silver mines in the world. By 1910 rampant development destroyed almost everything, a story still very relevant today. Click pics, read ALTs.
I love the sound of explosions in russia in the early morning.
They sound like Victory.
Some day this war will end. And so will Putin.

First World problem. My take on them is they add complexity, which adds cost and introduces more opportunity for failure.
Personal preference is for old analog taps, with a better tactile interface, reliability, and price point.
Consider donating the difference to a local food program, or Ukraine.

The Canadians fought "Little Stalingrad" at Ortona, which was treated by the allies as mere "diversion" so the US could get to Rome.
We broke the Hitler line and forced the Nazis out of Cassino.
We left many young men in the hills of Italy.
In the fight against fascism Canadians showed up.
