In 100 years when someone comes to a website such as this it will prolly be called "Obesity" instead of "Opacity."
Wow must have been pretty colorful if the red and green stripes. It also looks like it is in the middle of know where.

JUDE THAT DOES LOOK LIKE A AIRCRAFT HANGER BUT TO ME IT ALSO LOOKS LIKE A ARENA FOR HORSES OR BARNS. MOTTS THIS PIC SORT OF LOOKS LIKE THE THREE COUNTY FAIR GROUNDS IN NORTHAMPTON, MASSACHUSETTS IF IT WERE FORGOTTEN.

Addendum to my previous post above.

What a lot of us need to realize as well, is that historically (previous to 1960)
Lifetstyles did not allow for sedentary life styles.
We didn't have to consider obesity the same way we do now, because life back then did not allow for it the same way it does now.
It affected 1-5% of the population where now we are looking at close to 50%.

This is not to say that it didn't happen, but it was much less common. If you were sedentary and obese it usually stemmed from illness, rather than a lifestyle choice.

Not all Morgues are step up with these types of units anymore.
Some of them have large walk-in coolers that the staff use to push the gurney's into and line them up for easier retrival.

Some have these body slide shelves and a walk in cooler. The body slide being for person's who require identification, work that is on going in the autopsy... etc.

Even in the science of death they have had to make adustments for the unhealthly lifestyles and genetic anomolyes of the living.

OK, so I have a tendency to get addicted to message boards, so I have been avoiding posting on your site motts. But I can't hold it in anymore. Amazing shots, I now devote all of my spare time to opacity and it's glory!

Are those large holes in the corners? Kinda big bolts to hold down a message board. I'm actually down with the cabinet idea.

Jesse, go to my buddy Goddog's awesome historical Byberry website. It's replete with pictures of Byberry from the 30's and 40's, multiple maps, and a picture section that has hundreds of photos from Byberry's recent past. The site is totally endorsed by Mr. Motts, who has explored with him quite a few times. Here's the link: http://theduke81.tripod.com/index.html
Amen, whatever it was.
That's a good bit more impressive than even the most elaborate of "tags". If the world has to tolerate vandalism at all, let's have literate vandals!
