Why was crack new and popular?

I wasn't implying anything, especially not CCR's involvement. (I'm a fan of "five whys" analysis.)

Why were there crack wars and their accompanying violence? (Just playing a little root-cause-analysis here.)

Sure, but who convinced 71% of Californians that this approach was a good idea?

I just checked Autotrader too. 46 listed there. Car search is tricky. It's something I've been thinking about for a while now. [Edit] I'd love to see someone do car search right!

We played this game a lot as kids. It's also called Mill or Müell. After a few years my sister "solved" it. She showed that the first player could win every time if they made no blatant mistakes. It wasn't as much fun af

This makes no sense. How can one 25MPG gas car require over twice the "fuel manufacture" of another 25MPG gas car? Also, how does a hybrid vehicle cost less to manufacture than an comparable gas-only car?

"...the Gotthard base tunnel 'broke all the rules' and the excavation was finished nearly a year ahead of schedule." I'd like to know more about this.

But did you read to the end and see how everyone involved behaved in the aftermath? The opposite of what you seem to be implying. And honorably so.
