@UPS our pkg, conference booth materials, shipped to Westin hotel d/t Detroit for delivery Tuesday. Attempt was made at 4pm, driver said business was closed. First red flag. New delivery date yesterday. By 9pm it said. No delivery attempted. Now on day 3. Multiple calls. HELP!

@Utahfarmersorg1 So, increase emissions to save the Great Salt Lake? More inversion?

[Chris A @ChrisInSLC]

@foxonabox_ I think that's pretty standard at most airports to separate the arrivals and departures areas for traffic reasons. Although at SLC there's a secret Delta checkin counter at the bottom level, so a rideshare could drop off and pickup in the same spot, but it's hard to time it right

[Chris A @ChrisInSLC]

@Utahfarmersorg1 Utah's trees were here when the GSL was full. Utah's trees were here before agriculture was. Before people. Before cities. Yet the Great Salt Lake was "full" in 1986-87, even when there cities and trees. Before that? 1873. Your arguments are literally a joke.

[Chris A @ChrisInSLC]

@Utahfarmersorg1 Of the manageable water depleted by humans in the GSL basin, agriculture causes ~65% of depletions, while municipal/industrial use causes ~26%. To close the 1 million acre-foot deficit, we must optimize human use. Blaming trees ignores the math and science.

[Chris A @ChrisInSLC]

@Utahfarmersorg1 The GSL's decline isn't natural. Long-term precipitation remains stable, but human diversions have cut river inflows by 39%. Without human consumptive water use, the lake would be 11 feet higher today. Human extraction is driving the structural collapse.

[Chris A @ChrisInSLC]

@Utahfarmersorg1 Clearcut the forests! Utah should have 0 trees. Amazing that states still allow wild trees to grow when they're so bad for the environment.

[Chris A @ChrisInSLC]

@gopTODD That would require all of us to be idiots. An even higher level for those on X hating on data centers without the understanding of the irony.

[Chris A @ChrisInSLC]

@JaxsonReid2 Can the leagues require 1080 at minimum in the TV negotiations? Amazon doing NFL games in 4k is amazing. YouTube TV offers Fox in 4k for events. Amazing that I got my first high end HD TV in like 2005, and we're still broadcasting the biggest events in the same resolution.

And another one, really? Now we've got Julia Reagan selling scriptures on billboards? Let her rest in peace, Utah!

[Chris A @ChrisInSLC]

OK this Julia Reagan thing is just getting out of hand. What are we doing, Utah?

[Chris A @ChrisInSLC]

@LDS_Dems @SupraDslc It's not just democrats that hate Trump. One spot where principled conservatives and Dems come into agreement.

@danmccay I just requested mine, although I did custom.
US1UK0

Hopefully it's approved!

[Chris A @ChrisInSLC]

@saltcitysportut But a cover charge? Seriously? Is it just to cover the A/C bill in summer? I'll keep bringing all my alcohol in for free haha

[Chris A @ChrisInSLC]

@DannyVietti Sacramento is too far behind the ball on this; if there's expansion, SLC is getting the team. They have had the money, the ownership group, the land, and the renderings for 2+ years, and have already broken ground on construction around the site.

[Chris A @ChrisInSLC]

@Utahfarmersorg1 The public doesn't get a say in how private water rights are allocated, as long as they're legal uses. The "public" therefore would have no jurisdiction to prevent a data center from using its legally purchased water rights.

[Chris A @ChrisInSLC]

@Utahfarmersorg1 So disingenuous. No one on Earth includes "naturally occurring wild plants" in the calculations of who uses the most water. You know this, which is why you make up stats like this. Utah imports 95-97% of our fruits and vegetables. 55% of hay is exported. Ag is 80% of water usage.
