It makes more sense when you consider that for most of US history the country was significantly smaller than it is now. Originally the country pretty much just consisted of the East Coast - and France, England, and Spain still had large chunks of territory within the US's current borders.

Much of what's now considered the west wasn't captured from Spain/Mexico until much later. So basically just look at it from the perspective of the East Coast where the US originated. To them at that time what we consider the Midwest now would have just been the west. And the terms changed with the westward expansion.

I tried putting black beans on my grill but they fell through the gaps. Help?

Multiple variations means multiple factory configurations. Unless you're selling a lot of cars it may not be worth the cost of having those production line changes.

It's also not great when the pressure is on the outside of the vessel. It's good at containing pressure because that leads to tension on the carbon fibers which is when they're their strongest. But when the pressure's on the outside of the vessel they're more or less useless.

Viruses at least have DNA though. Prions are far, far simpler by comparison.

How do you vaccinate against a protein?

Sounds like allergies/asthma. I would go see an allergy clinic and get tested. If you find you have allergies you could consider getting allergy shots.

Sorry, I thought you designed these things yourself. Jokes aside - I was asking about the wind because you mentioned the strength of the cables. And then I piggy backed the water comment on there because I'm lazy and it seemed like a good place to put it. I agree that it's not really relevant to your comment.

Can you guarantee the wind won't catch them and dump a bunch of dirt on the people below? Also, I wonder what happens with the water. Does it just pool up inside, or is there a drain that drips dirty water onto people?

Even in the US sweet popcorn is a thing. We have kettle corn, or those tins with caramel popcorn. Salty/buttery is definitely the most popular though.

It can be both.
