Things I have learned this evening

[triadruid]

1. Konqueror does not work at all with the IE-only mapping software on kcmo.org (this is not a surprise, but I now have confirmation).
   
2. Using IE does not necessarily guarantee that the mapping software will work, of course.
   
3. May not build a Faraday cage within the City Limits of Kansas City, Missouri.
   
4. "Impact Zone", in Zoning terms, apparently means that may be hit by a car/train/bus, since they're all shown in streets and railroad lines.
   
5. PBWiki is very clever about many things; however it's a bit too clever about how it adds people to notifications - sorry about that, those who were getting our private wiki's updates. *roll*
   
6. There are huge tracts of undeveloped land within the 435 loop that could possibly be had for a song. Eeenteresting....

would any of those huge tracts of land for cheapish be on the mo. side??? if so, point me in a general direction, please!

Yeah, actually, they were all found through Land Trust of Jackson County. If their website is back up today (we may have broke it last night), it's at http://www.jacksoncountylandtrust.org/

Why do I have this feeling that this post may inspire a boom in yurt building?

I wonder if building a yurt is anything like building a telescope? There's a rule in building a reflecting telescope: "It is quicker to build a six-inch scope, then a nine-inch scope, than it is to just build a nine-inch scope."

In other words, first build something smaller and simpler than what you want so you can learn from your mistakes where they can be more easily corrected than in what you really want for yourself.

I wonder if that would work for relationships also?
