I think blue sky in cities is a myth. Never seen it. *grumble*

Just cruised past your blog again. I agree, it would be nice to see blue sky no matter where one stands! And not just from carbon emissions being reduced, but from less water vapor from jets perhaps; from fewer nitrogen-containing compounds landing in soils and water; and from people being outside during daylight hours. Nothing we can do about the grey skies around here… except to hope that they can someday again mean seasonal rains… not alternating droughts and floods.

Comment on Drop all foreign keys by Feryt

This should work for all weird table names:

SELECT ‘ALTER TABLE ‘ + TABLE_SCHEMA + ‘.[' + TABLE_NAME +
'] DROP CONSTRAINT [' + CONSTRAINT_NAME + ']‘
FROM information_schema.table_constraints
WHERE CONSTRAINT_TYPE = ‘FOREIGN KEY’

Comment on Where are the troops now? by stidmama

I agree with you completely… and what about Zimbabwe, Ethiopia or Israel? Seems our government likes to choose battles that aren’t guaranteed to cause economic trouble (but failed miserably with this one); or that have a high-profile “rescuer” image attached. Not many people seem to care about displaced people in non-oil-rich, poverty-stricken places.
