[@napadave58]

Here's another tip: Never on Earth has any person or corporation used a crane and NOT had it fall over, tumble off a cliff, bend/collapse in the middle .... they're flawed - every last one of them. UNLESS you need a crane to fall over and wreck some shit - in which case they get the job done.

​@napadave58 that comment doesn't make any sense. Crane accidents, especially in the U.S. ,are rare when you take into account the number that are used every day.

[@jeffmccrea9347]

In 1972, Hurricane Agnes went through and damaged Corning and Horseheads New York when the Corning and Horseheads rivers overflowed on either side of town(s) and sort of met in the middle filling some basements to the rafters with silt, filling some ground floors to the ceiling with silt and uprooting some whole houses and moving them into the middle of the street. I was 17 and living in Rochester at the time being born there. I was a member of a youth organization in Rochester called Teen League. A lot of the members and our adult overseers got together with the Brighton and Rochester city school districts that donated school buses and volunteer drivers. We got our parents to sign permission forms and over the next 5 weekends, we invaded Corning and Horseheads to help with the cleanup operations. There weren't 800 of us but there were 800 bodies who went down there. As an example, I went 5 times so that counted as 5. We weren't hero's nor were we the only volunteers to go there but after protesting the Vietnam war, as most of us did, we wanted to make a positive difference somewhere in the world and, at the time, Corning and Horseheads seemed to be a good place to start because we Rochesterians were blessed with little to no damage from the storm. We mostly worked for the older folks who couldn't do much for themselves and didn't have family or family who couldn't get there due to work or other responsibilities. None of us were paid but the smiles and tears of gratitude on their faces were enough to make it all worth the trouble.
