Best friend's dad was the chief administrator who built LIGO. Kind of a bittersweet day as once it was done, he moved on to the Thirty Meter Telescope which, despite his best efforts, did not get sited in the Atacama.

Protest this, you shits.

The problem with Hawaii is it's basically a giant native reservation that the white folx have turned into their own private playground, making the homeland unaffordable for families that have been there since they killed and ate the Menehune. It's not that they don't give a shit about the culture and it's not that they don't give a shit about the mountain, it's that fuckin' white boy go home and the TMT was a touchstone.
