If you're interested in a close approximation, you can find colatura in gourmet shops and online. It's a direct descendant of garum, but more refined.

I'm not sure if you're confused about my comment or the deleted one above, but you've more or less made my point. It doesn't make a lot of sense to say Charles Town, WV "resembles Virginia or Maryland more than Ap

Slightly off-topic gripe, but: "It’s only sixty-five miles from here to the Capitol Building in D.C., and the area resembles Virginia or Maryland more than Appalachia." That may well be because Charles Town is a half hour in eithe

Of some pertinence: http://darksitefinder.com/maps/world.html Any truly dark place is at least a couple of hours from me, and I already live in a somewhat rural part of the western US.

The quality of the tracking has a big effect on noise, too.

Trains don't have to signal at every intersection. There are quiet zones in hundreds of municipalities.

Even just setting up a Twitter account for a business feels like it's not something they've put any effort into. You can set up an advertising account with multiple users, but for a regular public-facing Twitter account it's
