You can’t use maths to average the sound emission duration for each person and make a calculation of your expected noise contribution on the fly. Been there,done that. You […]
You know, I meet young people, and they want to act and they want to be famous, and I tell them, when you get to the top of the tree, there’s nothing up there. Most of this is nonsense, most of this is a lie. Accept life as it is. Just be grateful to […]
