The majority of people occupying the same bed will have congruent driver/passenger sides. Distant strangers don't need to know which side you are referring to. Couples from different regions could adopt the local convention.

You could just leave a line attached to the raft and a pole on shore.

Maybe if it supported driving 3+ displays for use as a workstation docking station. If it was on the order of $150-$300 it would be price competitive with thunderbolt docking stations.

The only problem with that would be if you ran out of butter and jam to spread on them.

That was arguably a separate faction, although the fellowship did do their best to inspire them to acts of war.

My wife got repeated infections and had a lot of pain from the copper iud.

If you go looking for testimonials you'll find numerous people who had bad experiences with it.

Also, they really should offer anesthetic or at least a powerful painkiller for the insertion and removal procedures. Doctors act like it's no big deal, but it's very painful.

I find it interesting that the hot stage jettison is after the boostback burn. That implies to me that the purpose of the jettison isn't for weight reduction. I wonder if there are aerodynamic control reasons to jettison the hot stage.

I also wonder if the hot stage ring is expected to sustain enough damage to be a single use part anyway.

Anyone who would list goats as medium fencing needs has never raised goats. They are way harder to keep fenced than cattle.

Plus all the helicopter pilots for remote industrial work. Have you seen the logging helicopters? There's helicopters for inspecting and servicing electrical transmission lines. Some power companies use giant dangling saws attached to a helicopter to trim trees along lines.

If you only included passenger aviation, I bet the count would be below average, with most fatalities being from medical conditions while on the job.

4 pump impeller failures in 5 years. 1 time a mask strap got past the strainer. I'll take the blame on that, but the other 3 were just long hair and bad design/materials choices.
