A very short piece to end the day—the kind of thing one can enjoy with sundowners. I post this link to share with you a presentation that left me intrigued and impressed.

Basically it seems that there is a new rock anchor “with dynamic capabilities” that will keep the underground workings intact in the event of an earthquake.
