The O's are not adding up...??
7:11 am
hokie carla

I am just on the 2nd tile because I got stumped on the first O
7:12 am
dauber

All three Os are just....no.
7:13 am
BzznBea

I have 10 O's but my upper left O only shows 4/5.
7:13 am
hokie carla

barely got half on the S. this grid is a lot of work for 300 words. hopefully this is the hard row and it'll get easier.
7:16 am
BzznBea

That's weird. I have counted and recounted. I refreshed and counted again. Still showed that I needed one of the upper left.
7:17 am
hokie carla

that is odd.
7:17 am
hokie carla

tell me what all the o's are and I'll see if it happens to me 🤣🤣
7:18 am
BzznBea

I just counted again...Now my word list says I only have 9.
7:18 am

Open Babble in another tab and see if it is there
7:20 am
BzznBea

And that word woulld be the sound one makes when there is a mistake... Aptly so...
7:20 am
hokie carla

that was my first word this morning too. o* I did it again.
7:21 am
BzznBea

All O's are grey now. Just weird...
7:21 am
BzznBea

As is my life...
7:40 am
MollyL

Wow, a million people without power in Louisiana
7:40 am
BzznBea

I saw that. So sad.
7:44 am
MollyL

I guess when you live somewhere that hurricanes are so frequent, a generator is a must.
7:45 am
BzznBea

Yes, but they are expensive and a lot of NOLA residents can't afford them
7:45 am
mael

yeah, but generators cost money and LA has some of the highest rates of poverty in the country
7:54 am
mkg

i said when katrina hit that they should not rebuild new orleans and instead move to higher ground. there are things that man cannot control and hurricaines are one of them.
7:55 am
mkg

so sad. but to live so close to the shore is not a good idea in that area which is hurricaine heaven..........
7:56 am
mael

the problem is less New Orleans and more what has been done to the coastline of LA (and everywhere in the US, unfortunately). Marshes are protective and you need to let silt build up on the shore from rivers. But we damn the rivers and channel them them and we dredge them and we build right up to the ocean and it is not sustainable
7:57 am
mkg

are hurricaines getting worse? i dont recall hearing of such problems years ago.............
7:57 am
mael

a little, but the rising ocean makes everything worse
7:57 am
mkg

mael you are so right. man wants to control nature and we just cant.
7:58 am
mael

you build levees that can withstand a 20 foot surge but then the ocean rises and the levees can only protect from a 18 foot surge and then 15 and then you need new levees and...
7:58 am
mkg

i am missing the second column o word and e word if anyone has stats or clues. ty. i saw an os mentioned but not the stat.
7:58 am
MollyL

There have been category 4 hurricanes since the 18 an 1900's.
7:59 am
mael

climate change is going to change everything
7:59 am
mkg

mael, i wonder what the effect is on the netherlands.....they also live below sea level.
7:59 am
MollyL

We are all doomed. Run for your lives.
7:59 am
mael

there have been cat 5 hurricanes for the entirety of human history
7:59 am
mael

nah, the rich people will be fine
7:59 am
mael

it's everybody else that is going to suffer
7:59 am
rbud

I thought the same when they showed people rebuilding after Sandy in the northeast - even This Old House was in on it, rebuilding some place on stilts on the sandbar with breakaway walls underneath. I just wondered "why?!?"
8:00 am
mkg

molly, you are so right..........i once read a theory that the insects will be the survivors in the far future after man and the mammals all die out
8:00 am
mael

thankfully there were programs after Sandy where federal money was used to buy up the land and not rebuild
8:00 am
mkg

yes why rebuild on the shores?
8:01 am
mael

marshes are our buffer zone. Rising sea levels would not be as much of a problem if we let marshes do what the are supposed to do
8:01 am
mkg

but a century ago man didnt try to build a house on the shore.......our wealth is the issue.
8:01 am
mkg

yeah marshes!!!!!!!!!! i vote to build marshes wherever we can!!!!!!!!!!!!
8:01 am
MollyL

I have never understood the massive structural building that has happened on the tiny isle of land known as New York City
8:02 am
mkg

agree molly.
8:02 am
rbud

mudslides in California... houses going down... stupid.
8:02 am
mael

seriously! you just need to let wetlands expand back into the shore, but we don't. We hem them in with buildings and roads and golf courses and shit.
8:02 am
mkg

we just cant control nature. nature is really god..........
8:02 am
mkg

wetlands are key to it all
8:02 am
mael

well, we could try not to wreck things. That would be good.
8:04 am
mael

climate change is going to bring a lot of chickens home to roost, but unfortunately the rich and powerful are not going to feel any real consequences, just everyone else.
8:04 am
mkg

in ocean city md, they built marshes and wetlands in front of all the buildings. people were upset initially but it worked in keeping things good.......so now instead of walking 50 ft to the beach you walk 200 feet. no big deal but ecologically good.
8:05 am
mael

absolutely!
8:05 am
mkg

and probably you need 500 feet not just 200 feet
8:05 am
mael

realistically, yeah. But it's better than nothing.
8:05 am
mkg

also in NJ some areas built this stuff. they pushed the coast line out and allow no new buildings closer to the beach.
8:06 am
mkg

ok all, any clues for the E or O words second column? ty
8:06 am
mael

I wish MA would get with the program
8:06 am

oooh, just got the E word!!!!!!!! woooooo

It has all the bells and whistles.
9:10 am

10:28 am
cybernan

have you looked at the filter on the end of the faucet?
10:29 am
hurshy

no, it's not the water. i have two kettles. the one with the broken lid, the tea comes out fine, but when i pour it, the lid falls off. the one with the non-broken lid makes the water taste funny.
10:29 am
hurshy

i'm getting a new kettle, but was hoping to fix the taste issue on that one anyway
10:30 am

Using filtered water in a tea kettle or coffeemaker makes a big difference. A BRITA pitcher is a good investment.

I would think 12?
2:48 pm

idk that seems like a lot of batter for 12
2:48 pm
hokie carla

well you could fill them higher than usual and have big muffin tops or do 18
2:51 pm
