I have an eye exam coming up in a couple weeks and I'm sure my progressing cataracts will be discussed. My focusing has deteriorated significantly since my last new prescription just 2 years ago. In fact I choose to do without glasses completely while playing ball, it's more dangerous with them.

Thanks for all the responses. Wore them this morning and didn’t have any issues. It’s amazing how much debris was in the road that I never noticed before. I’m blessed that I have not had more flats.

The internet tells me there are people who pretend to have an ailment solely to get attention. It can be a mental disorder.

Believe it when I see it. Sure, if millions of drivers started buying the e-cars, prices could drop, but they could also run low on lithium. Since I retired I haven't priced batteries or components, so I don't have access to pricing, but while I was on the job things were expensive. Also, a "350 mile range" ev? I'm very skeptical of that whole chart.

In other motoring news, it's about time they started going after shops that cater to coal rollers:
