Isn't this what units tests are for?

SEA parking garage? Unfamiliar with this size reference.

When I last travelled to the USA from the UK, it took weeks to get the ESTA. Might be quicker now, but 10 minutes sounds like lightning to me!

I can hear the elves calling me...

But no, last year I lost all momentum on my side projects and my gf thought she'd lost me to the elves.

Completing it on time was rewarding but I can't go back.

But I can hear those elven bells a jingling...

I was imagining a wooden dock structure. 7 tons! What did you build it out of? Sounds impressive and hard wearing.

At my local fine-fare (80s uk superstore) they sold computers in a 'concession' stand.

They sold Jupiter Aces. Wish I had the money back then to get one!

But surely it isn't wiggling the tissues by sound waves passing through matter, but by vibrating space time itself?

The skull shouldn't be able to resist gravity waves any more than soft tissues or 10km of lead?

For the brain I think I prefer 'wet jelly' than 'meat bag'!

I think you're correct. Looking at the simplest form of this:

In traffic jams on motorways google often directs me to come off at a slip road only to immediately rejoin the motorway. These slip roads are fairly empty and thus my journey time improves.

The overall implication to the traffic jam is negative though. Everyone rejoining slows down traffic more than leaving it speeds traffic up.
