Hmm, its been a while since I worked in the area of dental fluoride (was part of my PhD) but my understanding was systemic exposure pre-eruption was still beneficial. This (possibly biased source) agrees: https://www.dentalcare.c

The crowning achievement of my PhD was having some of the images I took featured in one of Ze Frank's videos 10 years later. Who cares about Science and Nature papers!

Do you know how the numbers compare for green field projects on the ground? They keep building new projects in otherwise wild/wilderness areas instead of on rooftops.

If you are in the USA the national weather service is great, its not flashy but good and you can read the text forecast discussion. Otherwise Windy.com and Meteoblue are good.

Ok? Most people don't haul enough to warrent buying their own tow vehicle, just rent one for the few times a year you need it. Also, many smaller SUVs can tow a range of loads that most people need. If you exceed this then get a truck.

Doesn't this require everyone to have children and your children to live nearby? Also, it seems like the OPs aging parent required specialized care which contributed to the high cost, not everyone could provide this level of care.
