one more I'm always trying to share with people: the time a rich dude whose fortune came from hot dogs tried to build an indoor rainforest near my hometown

Sorry I didn't get to this essay sooner but it's absolutely wonderful and also how did I not know you lived in Iowa City? We would've missed each other by a year or two? but shoutout to Currier and SpoCo and the Ped Mall.
