- Retric 4y agoSure but it’s been 11 months, assuming the concern was this winter that’s quite a bit of time to do something.
- kergonath 4y ago11 months is no time at all for any kind of large-ish project. And small-scale projects are getting harder due to the economic situation as well. You just cannot do much of anything in 11 months.
- Retric 4y agoAssuming you don’t treat it as an emergency 11 months isn’t that long. But, look at how quickly and how many COVID vaccines where created and entered mass production. Or how quickly Germany got their new LNG terminal online from scratch. We normally take forever to build a bridge, but 15 days after a hurricane Florida got large temporary bridge ready for traffic. https://practical.engineering/blog/2022/12/15/how-this-bridge-was-rebuilt-in-15-days-after-hurricane-ian https://practical.engineering/blog/2022/12/15/how-this-bridg... That’s the kind of response that gets stings done. So, 11 months is a long time when people actually decide acting right now is important.
