My apologies. I was looking at prices for the grocery store that I shop at and I misread the numbers. It is $2.79 for 1 litre of 2% from Neilson. That works out to roughly $0.28/ 100 ml (prices on the shelf has the price per ml on it). Now, you can also buy a package of 4 one litre bags for $4.27 from the same dairy which works out to about $0.11/ 100 ml - four litres is pretty close to a gallon. ETA: I do not know what accounts for the large difference in price per 100 ml from 1 carton to 4 bags. ---

Ran out of time. Here is a Snopes article that covers the more recent time period. Basically, it’s the same thing. Very, very few cases ever move on. You could argue that 80% are overturned of less than 1% of cases. They are also combining “vacated” and “reversed”, which I believe are legally different, but perhaps not enough so to be worth arguing about at less that 1%.

Eh, it’s a coastal state (on the great lakes), so though it does not share a land border, it still does participate in a substantial amount of international trade w canada. Better inform him before he tries to build a wall, though. ---

> [@Czarcasm](#): > > That’s going to be his next project-the Great Lakes Wall, to stop all those Canadists from sailing across the border to the U.S. of A. I don’t recall where I heard it, but if/when they build a wall on the Mexican border, it will be on the US side of the Rio Grande, so we will be ceding the river to Mexico. If we build a wall on the Canadian border we will cede the Great Lakes (except Lake Michigan) to Canada. ---

^^ Making America Great Again didn’t specify what America. It could mean Mexico and Canada. And in addition it would be treason and Trump’s the bestest treasonist, so it’ll be tremendous and everybody loves it. I can almost hear Trudeau saying 'we are not paying that confounded wall." ---
