Reply to Winter driving in PA all seasons vs Snow tires. What do you have and why? by RemoteStatement

Snow tires are 1960s technology. There have been lots of advances in polymers and tread patterns since.... There are now some very good snow rated all season tires, like Michelin CrossClimate 2. They even have the US Tire Manufactures Association's "Mountain/Snowflake" winter tire certification, meaning you can run them on roads that legally require snow tires. (like some areas in the Rockies.) Tires like this are not cheap, but it sure beats changing tires twice a year.

Reply to comment by Vtfla in 5 Connecticut police officers charged after Black man left paralyzed following ride in police van by AudibleNod

>Cox's family filed a federal lawsuit against the city of New Haven and the five officers.... Four of the officers filed motions last week claiming qualified immunity from the lawsuit, arguing that their actions in the case did not violate any "clearly established" legal standard.

While this does seem like a gross undercharge, it may shut down the officers' motion.

Millions of aluminum pots are used everyday.... A couple of micrograms of aluminum in your diet, everyday, is not going to hurt you. Your body can presses and expel many milligrams of aluminum a day, through sweat and urine. Your body can process much more aluminum than you are going to get from cooking in a pan.

Regardless, the pots should last your whole life. If they are overly toxic (which they are not), they will still last your, possibly shortened, life.
