Ohio is really horrible when it comes to speed limits. I've never seen anything in the state posted over 65mph. I've lived here for 14 years and driven around the whole state.
That's the reason speed traps work in this state. You go from a posted 60 (where everyone is going 65 to 70) to 35 and unless you noticably break you will enter the 35 going at least 50.
I've also heard Dodge owners have been known to tell their buddies to hold his/her beer and "watch this". Sadly there was nothing physically stopping the car owner from hurting his/her own car.
It's very, very, hard to design against a user who is intent on destroying something.
Or buying a bunch of food and going strait from the checkout to the return area and returning everything for cash (at least in OH stores can't give back food stamps). They then turn around and buy booze with the cash.
Oh you joke, but my hometown (Southern OH, just North of Piketon on US 23) got in a little trouble a couple of years ago for accepting donations to the tune of something like $1000 to make your ticket disappear. Wish I could find a better source...
In my state (Ohio) it's a law that you must be given 48 hours notice before the owner or someone on behalf of your apartment building can enter your apartment. There are exceptions for certain situations, like fire, and possibly your leaking pipes scenario if it was bad enough.
Not 0$/hour, you need to compare "can I do this cheaper myself than paying someone else?" Parts are cheap, labor is expensive. There are many of us who can do the the work. The whole point of knowing these codes is to quickly track down the problem. Also, there are more than a few of us who work on our cars for fun.
From a good friend who is 6'2", leg room is annoying, but doable for short term. The real kicker is the head room, he looks out the top 2" of the windshield, hits his head getting in and out etc.
Here in the US I'm opposed to raising taxes to that of a Western European nation on the basis that we already on average work more hours per week than any other country. I'll consider letting my government raising taxes when I get the same pay I do now for working Western European hours.
Clarify this: do you mean you have to pay the "holding fee" on everything once you get a Class 3 or what? A very good friend of mine has AP for his.223 and.308, neither of which have any "holding fee" associated with them. Yes I'm sure there was a sales tax applied at sale, and possibly some federal tax because it's ammo, but I'm not sure about the latter because I've never bought any ammo. I just shoot his:)
Also I don't see this "holding fee" happening for things you can buy online, like ammo. My friend gets all his ammo from online, it comes in nice metal tins covered in Russian / Bulgarian whatever writing. He also has what I'm guessing you mean by high capacity (30 round magazines) and there was no fee.
Some phones cost $500, it depends what you want in a phone. All my phone needs to do is call people, have a phone book, and voicemail. That can't cost anywhere near $500. I would rather outright by my cheap phone and not have it subsidized by the phone company (yes I know I can go buy a one that does what I need on ebay cheap).
I'm 20 something, don't pay for texts and have then blocked on the account.
Not physics, but for my undergrad mechanical engineering degree right now, we have to take an entire numerical methods class taught with matlab. This is a requirement for civils too.
I also had to take a C++ class too, I question its usefulness, but then I took it with a CS guy, should have gone with the ME.
As far as the "low-high-low", my car is old enough to have 4 sealed beam headlights. If the idiot coming at me won't turn off his high beams after a quick flash, he gets all 4, and I know at night he can't see jack with that.

I've very interested in most of my engineering classes, and the ones I'm not so interested in I still pay attention/take notes in because I know it's on the FE. My other classes, the ones required by the university, are considerably less interesting to me.
Compared to what I'm used to, the other classes are easy. I do only want to get a decent grade in those classes. Yes I know there is an argument to make about understanding vs. memorizing the other stuff, but if I graduate understanding just all the engineering parts, I'll be happy.
And yes I do go to the other classes even when they're not required, but only if the professor has good engaging lectures.

Boil orders, what kind of a back woods town has those every month?!?! /sarcasm

Shouldn't these numbers be normalized wrt to population size?
16 weeks. Aren't you lucky. Try 10 weeks from a place that's on quarters. (undergrad ME on quarters)

I would be more worried about the bullets hitting me, not my car.

I've told you once and I'll tell you again - IT'S FOR HUNTING DEER

My school (fairly large school, 20000 undergrads + grad students) usually had ONE copy of the textbook for engineering classes at the library.
Ah drug dealers, just as nature intended.

By that definition Nitrogen is a pollutant too, along with, well, any gas but Oxygen.
One of the displays contained a gigantic object that looked like it would take two men to shift.
yes things have gotten much smaller over the years, even the shift key.

nor do you live in southern Ohio, the road from home to college has more deer than cars at night.

One of these systems I know of is called "WonderGuard". I'm too lazy too look anything up about it, but I liked the name.
You know when I heard about this on the news I wondered "is it too early for the cold dead hands joke?", apparently not.
