Reply to LPT: If you call a company to speak to customer service but the automated menu won't let you talk to a real person, say "Upgrade my account" instead of "Refund" or "Cancel," when the automated menu asks you to state why you're calling. You will immediately be transferred to a real person by BigSpoonFullOfSnark
Assuming that’s an option.

Reply to comment by valkyrjuk in TIL A coal seam in Australia is believed to have been burning for 6,000 years, making it the oldest coal fire. The site's name is Mount Wingen but is commonly called Burning Mountain and the fire is traveling south 1m per year discoloring the ground as it goes. by jamescookenotthatone
Have you looked into whether there is any sort of comeback or cleanup/compensation available from the former mine owners? This doesn’t seem right.

Why can’t they just use a Cygnus to do it?
Personally, I’d prefer that they leave it up, and perhaps let private space companies operate it if NASA and partners won’t.

Yes, it’s a repost.
And why is the pilot in the left seat? I thought helicopter pilots sat on the right.

You’re talking about New Shepherd, correct?
I thought the suborbital joy flight was a single stage.

I actually said that Trump would refuse to leave the White House, and there would be some sort of unrest or insurrection.

Something a metre wide might make a noise when it burns up (like a small fireworks rocket, “fsssssshhhhh”)

For sure.
Sorry to be pedantic, but it’s “closed-minded,” as in someone has closed their mind to new information or differing opinions.
