Nope, Chemistry teachers are too busy re-teaching kids basic math, literacy, and human decency.

Sure, traffic should flow and be predictable, but cooling your heels in your comfy car for a few seconds is not a great tragedy. I'd rather people in cars defer to pedestrians whenever possible.

I really enjoy Pho Luca's as well. Their broth is amazing. I like that there is a vegetarian option.

I think the crosswalk light thing is the actual only solution to this.

EXACTLY. I've encountered this 'aggressive kindness' as a pedestrian too and yeah, if I have my kid with me especially, I will cross when I feel safe.
Like going beyond the law, even with good intentions, is literally breaking the law. People don't seem to get that.

I was going to do exactly that until Google maps said otherwise. Bon Air ends at Huguenot Rd, according to our Google overlords. Apparently it’s not even Stony Point, it’s “Huguenot” which I never considered it.
(Throws up hands) I just know it’s not Midlo, lol.

I grew up in Midlo, bub. It’s all the same to me south of the river.

> Also you would pass "Gilpin Court" which is a very sketch neighborhood that you might feel uncomfortable walking by--especially at night.
From Leigh St to Laburnum Ave Chamberlayne can be rather unpleasant to walk. Nice neighborhoods flanking either side, but Chamberlayne itself sucks.
Gilpin Court is a public housing project.

Reply to Getting rid of yard debris? by Ok-Piccolo6845
If they're branches and limbs too large for yard bags you can pile them beside where you leave your can on collection day and they come lift them with the truck with the claw/grabber on rhe back. I think someone else here said this happens on your recycling day, I think they might be right but I normally leave yard waste out every week at this time of year and it's taken care of.

Would you support Richmond transferring ownership of Bryan Park to Henrico County for free? I think Henrico County's citizens would benefit by that move because of all that development towards the middle of the county (Green City, VCC). Henrico also seems more primed and motivated to throw some money at improving and building new parks (see also Taylor Farm park).
Henrico gets an additional park to add to their fleet and Richmond gets to direct some of their budget towards their other parks.

Your reminder that trader Joe's is overpriced and green washed TV dinner and snack foods. Not a grocery store.
