Holscher's Hub: Y Cross, UW, CSU, Donations, Money, and Lost Oppor...
I try to stay away from commentary in this blog, and frankly on my blogs in general. While I probably would find it to be a hoot to be an op ed columnist, that's not what I set up the blogs to do.
Still, every now and then, I cannot help it. Here's one such instance, which is posted on my general blog:
Holscher's Hub: Y Cross, UW, CSU, Donations, Money, and Lost Oppor...: About 14 years ago the Denver owners of the Albany County Y Cross ranch donated it to the University of Wyoming and Colorado State Universit...

Sidebar
Today we introduce a new feature, which I've entitled Sidebars. Or rather, I'm expanding it. I see where I already used that term for expanded features, and I'm just going to go with it.
Sidebars are conversations between counsel and the court in trials, occurring outside of the presence of the jury. The intent it to work out some matter that's come up. That's not really, of course, what we're doing, but rather this is a short explanatory discussion on some topic that's raised here of unique historical importance.
Of course, like a true sidebar, you'll be getting one person's view, in that I'm writing them. I hope to be objective, but as it's a discussion, I can't discount the fact that it is, of course, my view. But, also like a true sidebar, the other interested parties can voice their opinions too, in the form of comments.

Earthquakes in Wyoming
A poster here asked about earthquakes in Wyoming. given that they are constantly referred to here. This USGS page lists quite a few, although I don't know if it is conclusive.
Wyoming is extremely tectonically active. I've experienced four earthquakes in Wyoming personally, that I can recall.
