VAT is Value Added Tax. I believe that hooker is not only not adding value, but removing some value from his reproductive system. Just not the man he was come morning.

The UK is pretty much the same size as Wyoming.

UK land area: 93,628 sq miles.
UK Population: 66,000,000 in round figures.
Population density: 701 per sq mile.

Wyoming land area: 97,914 sq miles.
Wyoming population: 590,000 in round figures.
Population density: 5.97 per sq mile.

It's a bit crowded here!

What about Australia? And those islands, and those other places that fly the Union Jack?

Sadly, in this context, the flag counts for nothing.

Otherwise I'd have long since left these shores for Hawaii.

Those Asian countries have so many people living on the ocean or on major rivers dumping into the ocean water becomes their dump.


Here's the history of the NFL coin toss...

That's bad chart design--two extra columns just to convey that the Houston Texans didn't exist until 2002 and thus have 3 years' less data? Should have been an asterisk. [/presentation nerd]

Also, the Patriots win 75% of the time--I'm shocked, shocked...

I don't know, some of these sound flaky, but then again 2017 was a weird year.

All those states manufacturing airplanes are probably just small government contractors supplying parts for the F35.

South Dakota's biggest export being $91m worth of distillery dregs puzzles me.

Does this refer to alcohol production? If so, most of the booze produced must never leave the state.

I'm coming to the conclusion that the 'dregs' are the byproduct of ethanol production and are used for stock feed.

Ethanol

Ethanol is environmentally friendly, renewable, safe and it contributes to our energy independence.

Using ethanol reduces harmful auto emissions and reduces our dependence on foreign oil and expensive domestic crude oil.

One bushel of field corn yields 2.8 gallons of fuel ethanol and 17.5 pounds of high protein dried distillers grain for livestock feed.

15.3 billion gallons of ethanol production helped bring net oil import dependence down to 25 percent in 2016.

Ethanol decreases the price of gasoline by 50 cents to $1.50 less per gallon.

Ethanol use reduces carbon monoxide, oxides of nitrogen and other pollutants.

The Renewable Fuel Standard, or RFS, reduced motor fuel GHG emissions by 43.5 metric tons in 2016, that’s like removing nine million cars from the road for an entire year.

Economic Impact of Ethanol

Ethanol production adds value to U.S. agricultural products and brings billions of dollars into the nation’s economy each year.

In 2016, the production of 15.3 billion gallons of ethanol directly employed 340,000 Americans.

In 2016, ethanol added $23 billion in the pockets of Americans.

Am I barking up the wrong tree here? It has been known.

I was curious about the MA gold. I tracked it to a US Census Bureau table of state exports to foreign countries. For MD it says, "CIVILIAN AIRCRAFT, ENGINES, AND PARTS".
