Is it possible to share some of the presentations from MC2016? And hope people like us who couldn't attend this year, get to see some videos soon!
Everything was recorded.
Give them some time to to post production.
EVERYTHING was recorded. Even midnight trips into sleeping people's rooms.
Is Sam still alive?
Sam is, SAM is not.

These two are waiting for their swap bag,....
So is this a Rochester thing or was this just a hotel thing? Because if this was just a hotel thing, they need to seriously get an exterminator. WTF!
We do have a lot of spiders in Rochester, but there seemed to be a lot in and around the hotel.
More this year than normal.

Rochester area is completely overrun with spiders right now. Dominica was talking about this minutes ago, literally. We've had just SO many this year. @MarigabyFrias has some cool pics of some nasty ones we found in a field... so many this year.
Cool! would love to see some of the spiders

The "OG's, or the 1percenters" although they outnumber humans significantly

Learned a lesson Sunday. When your vehicle is a standard, don't do the entire ship tour at the Buffalo & Erie County Naval & Military Park, and immediately drive the 350 miles home! Doing a stair step exercise routine makes shifting that much more difficult latter on.

LOL, I did 1400 miles in a standard a few months ago. Love it. Give me a standard any day, any amount of traffic, any distance.

Reminds me of driving home from the gym on "arms" day (driving a standard). It's a wonder I never ran into anything.

Generally, I'd agree with you, but I hate it in Atlanta stop & go traffic... My knees were creakier than my grandma's front door after that last trip I did.

I've done a lot of stop and go, including in hill towns and with a good car, it doesn't bother me at all.

Yeah, just imagine doing a stair step routine before heading out into that, ouch!
For anyone driving in pas Buffalo, the museum is worth a stop. Just be aware that you'll be doing a stair step exercise routine.

Lots of other museums there too. Albright Knox is pretty famous.

You say that now... Have you driving a truck with 450,000 miles on it that had a 50 pound clutch? Highway miles were fine,.. but City and hills sucked like an F5 tornado.
Oh - I guess I should say it was a commercial MACK truck so you had to have CDL (commercial Drivers License) with Air brake endorsement.

I miss driving a standard. One day when the ship comes in, I plan to have a second car with a standard.

The vehicle I want and that we have the tech to actually create today is all electric drive with an onboard generator (preferably a turbine with 1 moving part). I know of none being made tho.

They used to make these. Porsche made one in 1901, in fact. It's called "electric transmission."
