Thanks for the offer - I used to live in Philly, so have seen a few around. I stumbled on my first while walking through a sketchy part of Port Richmond.

I would not have guessed that source of your name - after reading the Toynbee tiles Wikipedia page I would have guessed the historian, Bradbury story, or Clarke story.

It was the Toynbee tile connection for me. Something that I look for while traveling.

I'm glad you got it sorted and your kid is doing well. They seem pretty damn resilient.

Love your username, btw.

Was this to fix a tongue tie? I'm not sure if it was the surgery or some other factor, but ours started breastfeeding after having the procedure. The post-surgery "exercises" were the worst though - basically massaging a newborn's recently separated skin twice a day was not pleasant for anyone.

That's a cool project - good luck and update us on how it turns out.

Here in the US, high strength (95%) ethanol is widely available. We would occasionally do shots of it when I was (much) younger.

To you, what is the difference between the moon being turned into a black hole and being replaced by a black hole with the same mass?

I'm a simple man; I see reconstructed Proto-Indo-European, I upvote.

I don't disagree with your sentiment. I also don't know where you live. To clarify though, this story is from the UK.
