it depends, if it was a currency exchange, it'll be labeled in one of 3 ways, either average rate per unit, absolute, or it'll be a reference to a MSSQL table containing exceptional spot transactions. Otherwise, a complete history

I wonder what other odd connections are made due to city-name almost certainly being the most common word next to sportsball-name. Do the parameters think that Jazz musicians are mormon? Padres often surf? Wizards like the Lincoln Memorial?

I've always dreamed of trolley-bus like wires strung along interstates paired with robotic self-attaching trolley-poles. In my head, semi-trucks (and maybe all cars?) only need 50-100 miles or so of range for low-speed (where batteries
