'It finds that it took female employees 8.5 years longer than their male colleagues, on average, to achieve associate professor status.
It then took a further 6.1 years more for women to secure full professorships, according to lead author Richard Harris, professor of economics'.

Hey, I'd like to understand how you came up with this, because I don't find it in the historical record. Happy to be corrected, but soda-pop is def a thing in the 1940s-1960s.

There were different fav flavors across the country, Coke has always been the most favored soda not just in the US but world. It is amazing how Coke until the soda wars of the 1980s, which Coke won, has always been the soda of choice. Kinda crazy, but true. Chapter in my book 'Industrializing Taste'

Wow! And I thought this was a 1990s thing, but maybe it took the tech that long to be viable. So, now convinced the chickenshit car was about methane digesters, which turn out to be a very hard thing to do at mid-scale as in taking all the food waste from a 50,000+ person campus and converting it

I actually think it isn't a thing at all and you are probably right that it is hyperbole. You could take bio-mass and convert it to methane, but that biomass need a specific set of inputs to make it efficient, more fat the better according to an engineer friend working on mid-size digesters.

I'm sure if it says chicken it is chicken, otherwise just manure-car. Also very odd. Just imagine the smell. I've never seen such a thing in all my ag hist, but maybe others have.

Oh wow! Yes it is chronic. I've been following wildfires in wine regions globally and every year multiple places are burning. CA just had a 10ha fire outside of SanFran and it is early in the season. Since 2003 every year in AUS.
