Deadly Heat, Cars & Assholes

I went to Aldi, and there was a dog barking loudly inside of a hot car parked in the front, with the windows cracked open. I told the security guard who looked at it and did nothing. I told another employee who did nothing. So after a few more minutes, I called 911, and they transferred me to animal control, who was not answering. And finally, the guy came out, I told him he was going to kill that dog and he laughed and said he was only in the store for 15 minutes. It was 10:30am and already 90°F. The car was parked in full sun.

However, by the time I was done, my interest in technology, from over 10 years as an IT professional, was thoroughly peaked! Definitely off the "beaten path," in a spruce bog in Northern Minnesota, this site boasts an incredible array of scientific equipment that is supported by an amazing technological infrastructure! There are control sites and some of the chambers have added heat, carbon dioxide, or both. A lot of equipment and experimental testing goes on 24/7, 365 days per year. These guys know their stuff. The 10 chambers are connected ...
