Voters in Liechtenstein have voted to withdraw state funding from the tiny country’s public radio broadcaster, a decision that leaves the station’s future in doubt.
Smaller world than you think. My wife does pioneer days every year (and also the weekends when the village is open), either showing off the school room or the room with the spinning wheels and looms- she knows all about that stuff and is very talented at it.
Including the one I live in. Terre Haute, Indiana. Population: ~60k.
And we are not considered to be some great metropolis. You can drive from one side to the other in maybe 45 minutes if traffic is good.
Small world! Used to go to Pioneer Days when I was a little shit.

It’s crazy to me that you need 45 minutes for a city of that size. In Germany you probably need 20-30 minutes depending on traffic.
There’s a lot of stoplights.
Us Americans can’t seem to get the hang of a simple roundabout, so we’ve got that super efficient stop-and-go traffic.
Roundabouts would help for sure, but the area sizes of American cities are just much higher as well and therefore the population density is smaller.
True. I’d wager a decent chunk of that urban sprawl is due to our massive parking lots.
Let’s not talk about merging onto highways
I lived in Rhode Island for the last 8 years. That sounds like forever. I should be out of the state in 45 minutes.
