Went through the same thing years ago. We weighed all the paperwork submitted and it was just shy of 5 pounds.

Where I live we have 5-6 and they have worked great. The first time through can be interesting. Years later they are just a normal part of the the road. Everything is clearly marked and lanes are painted brightly. The upgraded intersections are very quick to get through now. In the past you could wait six or seven light cycles before getting through. Now you might have one short stop.

Twitter just removed the 140 limit for DMs but users are still restricted by the limit in tweets. Sometimes you need a few more characters to say what needs to be said. Tweetstorms or multi-tweet messages work but can be confusing to users. Multi-part tweets can be lost in the timeline and creates a nightmare with multi-threaded messages or lost context. Prolixy makes mega sized tweets quick, simple and streamlines the interaction with users.

Last year I saw him perform on stage. Halfway through the show a child walked up to the edge of the stage. B.B King stopped in the middle of his riff said hello to the child, smiled big and handed him his pick. The band played on during this exchange and he quickly pulled out another pick and started in again, never losing a beat. Several more kids flocked to the stage and B.B King stopped for each and every one of them and did the same thing. He probably went through 50 picks that night. Although a bit disruptive to a great performance it was touching to see his engagement with kids.
