Honestly though, is a silt plug that big of a deal? Seems like a lot of extra gear for a maybe problem.

My buddy Dave still gets mad about the Deccan Traps debate from his geology trip.

Yeah, the "just like following a recipe" thing misses so much. Recipes don't have bugs where your cake explodes because you used a comma wrong. It's more like trying to write a recipe for a robot that has zero common sense.

Ugh, that's so frustrating. I read a piece about this last month, how a lot of these services just scrape public directories and send out completely cold, useless contacts. They said the real red flag is when they guarantee a specific number of leads, because quality ones can't be promised like that.

Oh man, that reminds me of the time I found a petrified tube of super glue in an old toolbox. Thing was solid as a rock.
