"Better integrated planning would have avoided narrowing University Ave so much in 2004/5 and left enough space for bicycle lanes along the entirety of the avenue in the city, for example. I didn't post this idea, but i suspect many talented outsiders feel they have no say, despite charrettes and public input meetings. I've made suggestions and given feedback, and years pass before professionals incorporate them—the exact same unchanged ideas, unchanged through the years—into planning documents. More examples, the now disbanded Bike & Pedestrian Advisory Committee had suggested bike lanes and shared-use marking in 1999, and the City started implementing them two years ago. Eight years passed before my suggestion to accommodate carsharing made the Long-Range Transportation Plan. Meanwhile, folks resort to imaginary planning: Crowdsourced Moscow 2012: A Public Space Game." - John Lam

Made from corn sugar, Susterra® propanediol serves as deicing and heat transfer fluids and as a base for engine coolants where stability over a range of temperatures. In polymer applications, Susterra® propanediol serves in polyester-based resins and as a cross linker in urethane plastics. Two new products using its unique properties, DuPont™ Sorona® and DuPont™ Cerenol™ now find use in automotive applications, engineering polymers, fibers and coatings. For deicing, Susterra® propanediol provides low toxicity and biodegradability. It delivers excellent freeze point depression for aqueous solution applications that require freeze protection. As anti-freeze, it improves heat stability and corrodes less than other propylene glycol and ethylene glycol formulas, resulting in longer engine life. Resins made with it have improved flexibility and impact resistance. - John Lam
