Don't take it like that, I had great fun debating it last night.

Hey, look at all these pressure gages for sale (er, I mean gauges). https://www.amazon.com/Industrial-Pressure-Gauges/b?ie=UTF8&node=2611568011

From your article: "Newell is purported to be the person responsible for the adoption of the USGS spelling of “gage” instead of “gauge”. Around 1892, Newell reasoned that “gage” was the proper Saxon spelling before the Norman influence added a 'u'. USGS historian Robert Follansbee speculated...

You mean like School, why isn't it Scool? Go to school and tell your teacher it's scool, see what she says.

You guys agree because you are old fuddy-duddies. But I'm right on this, and you are not. And either way is not correct. If you are measuring something it's gauge. You better go back to school. https://sens4.com/gageorgauge.html...

I disagree Scott. It's gauge. But you've had a civil engineering education, so I respect that, and I'll listen to your explanation. But also, what is the preferred name in use today?

There are two.

Where is this?

By any standard, especially when you consider the father, I gauge Guage to be fine young man.

Were you in Lebanon State Forest? (Brendan Byrne if you use that name).

I highly doubt they would drive onto that road chasing that fire.

In here John, it says the fire spread 200 feet per minute. That would reach the road in 13 minutes, and if it started north of me? Note that I have nowhere to go South. The road does not cross that cedar swamp. https://www.nj.gov/dep/52earthday/milestones/m2007.html Don't get me wrong, your...

Thanks, I was hoping you'd contribute to this discussion. I was not on that road, I was just showing the firebreak. But how about here, where I was 2 days ago, on the Stafford Township line. Could I cook? I am from .4 to .6 mi from 539. RT= D, so if you had a 15 mph breeze driving the flames, it...

Your second question is the burning one (pun intended), and I agree with your last statement. In 2007 when the Warren Grove inferno erupted, the chosen future defense is to create a 250' wide vegetation removal on Micajas road (they liked it so much they did Washington Turnpike). They did that...

Some of you who know the plains might be surprised at the height of the vegetation in this photo. This is that trail on the north side of Governors pond by the bombing range.

Fire ecology in the pines is often discussed. It's not my area of expertise, but it does interest me because of what I see out there. For the past month, I've gone deep into the pine plains performing a plant survey. I'm starting to feel vulnerable out there because of the combination of narrow...

Oh Joy. This is a snippet of a Rutgers message. "Gulf Coast ticks (GCT), Amblyomma maculatum are in Salem county, NJ. Individual ticks have also been found in Cape May and the Meadowlands area. This is a very aggressive tick and does bite humans and pets. It transmits Rickettsia parkeri and...

Chairman, you are not confused. If the road is open without a gate or sign saying keep out, you are usually good to go. It's lovely isn't it? We want to keep it that way. We have it good, and some people want to restrict us. Well, to hell with them.

Russ (if you are watching), I listened to the podcast you developed. I take issue with some of your statements on the podcast. Standing at that first beach on the Mullica that has suffered gully erosion, you said there are ‘hundreds and hundreds of places like this”. That’s hyperbole. If you...

I don't know about moonshiners, but during prohibition Lucky Luciano ran a lot of rum through Atlantic city docks.
