there's a dancefloor stretching from coast to coast
have those railroad tie placing robots slice the ties then create a continuous wood dancefloor
not a robot link, Machines are available to do all the necessary track maintenance tasks: removing and inserting ties, tamping the ballast, cleaning the ballast, excavation and replacement of worn ballast, spiking rail, tightening bolts, and aligning the track. Some machines are equipped to perform more than one task

[pass me that joint, would you?] |

Railroad tie placing robots deserves a link. And clearly, the correct use for this resource is a coast to coast roller disco, not dance floor. |
|
|
[GPL], it would work if it's Riverdance [Link]. Or clog dancing [Other Link]. Since neither dance is a form of intercontinental transport, I agree that the road could become a coast to coast roller disco. |
|
|
However, the conga line, being both travel and dance, fits the idea better. |
|
|
Creosote, present in most railroad ties to keep them bug free and resist weather, is not good for living things. |

Wikipedia says "scrotal cancer", [linky] but i tend not to believe wiki specifics that involve funny words. |
|
|
Were we short on dance floors? Or methods of making them? |

Since [beanangel]-bashing is the current vogue, I thought
I'd peruse his catalogue to see if there were any that I
really liked. I've discovered, amongst other things, that he
doesn't seem to know that only the ^60Co Cobalt isotope is
harmful to humans and that he has a profound
misunderstanding both the purpose and operation of
military forces past and present. |

'Nose Propeller' wasn't bad. A handful of others seemed
feasable to a given degree of sanity, and most were worth
harf a larf. A few were downright offensive, even to my
relatively lax morals. |
|
|
This one, however, struck my fancy: it brought to me a
sudden vision of an unbroken band of enthusiastic Morris
dancers blocking traffic and terrorizing the populace from
Baltimore to San Francisco, and me here in my cozy
mountain home in Maine, several hundred miles out of
earshot. Bun, with bells on. |

is this some kind of public service [alterother]? |
|
|
[+] having occasionally been stuck in pedestrian gridlock, I would welcome a hardwood "dance only" lane. |
|
|
I've bicycled across some parts of this country on former railroad routes, and would prefer hardwood for cycling. |
|
|
The thought of a cross-country dance has a wild beauty. |
|
|
Slicing ties into slabs is very creative. |

No, it's exactly what I said it was. With so much of
[beany]'s prodigious outflow being barely-comprehensible
shite, I decided to see if there were any gems hidden in
the muck. Turns out there are a fair number, perhaps more
than I expected to find. |
|
|
When I began my journey, I had no intention of publicizing
it, but then I just had to share my deliciously horrific vision
with the rest of the 'Bakery. |
