Hmm, Hine, Lewis Wickes, sociologist and photographer, child labour laws and then armageddon in WV Lewis Hine West Virginia coal wars So many murky holes that I fear peering into!

After looking some more they maybe water lines to keep the dust at bay. Nothing, half an hour of searching and almost thirty tabs open and still the use of these types of machine did not start till 1948. Although google ngram give a spike (no pun intended) for ripper in 1908 ish

This must be the precursor to the machines known as "joy rippers", funny name for a machine that looks no fun to get caught up in. Joy 14CM10 Funny thing is they supposedly did not come about until 1948. Coal mining | Definition, History, Types, & Facts This I guess is electric due to the...

I guess what I am trying to say with this is that i thought sandstone is a uniform stone but this one looks like it is a conglomerate due to the rocks of differing colour which looks like the aggregate needed for concrete. I am no stone expert so I am willing to be corrected!

Are these really stone blocks or are they concrete??

I guess I should not be surprised with the involvement of the Yesler's as they seem to have their grubby fingers in all of Seattle's pies, local kingpins I think. Central Library, 1906-1957, The Seattle Public Library Then Carnegie, who looks like the guy that colonel Sanders was based on...

I do find it funny how things always seem to circle back to the same things, the image set above for example that shows the Kremlin, the other big building just to the right is the Moscow orphanage, even the wiki write up sounds creepy. Moscow Orphanage Something not quite right.

Some great pics of the alleged regrade here: Seattle - Consequences of a cataclysm, war or...

Staking a claim, I like it!

I am guessing that this is the south corner of the building. This is it now. I don't know when the street level was raised but it looks like before the building was built so why would they build down.

An election was held to choose 75 delegates to frame a constitution for the State of Washington. The elected delegates assembled on July 4, 1889 in the Territorial Capitol Building in Olympia and labored through the summer to draft a constitution that would form the basis for all future...

When i put this pic of the piri ries map, I could not help but think that the volcanoes look like multi coloured tailing piles, and also the Islands look like they all have semi circular cuts from them.

Thanks, if it costs anything i can contribute.

Hey KD, don't know where else to put this so I will leave it here. Is there any way we can get a dark mode for the forum, I now have a big screen and it is way to bright. Thanks RA

I bet there is a link to a piece of legislation and the fire, conveniently pre written to implement the day after, also the fire on 6/6. Those big old blocks on the floor at pioneer square look like the would crush those wooden wagons, also looks like the tried to extinguish the fire with...

On the map front i can't find that much but did stumble upon this from the piri ries maps. Source, fol. 220b Northern coastline of Sicily (here called the island of Messina) from Milazzo to Palermo A big old city/fort in between what i assume to be Stromboli and Lapari volcanoes which is not...

A few more coincidences, Lipari and Garibaldi are 80 miles apart. Just to the east we have another similar mound with strait edges and a point and it 66.6 mile from the garibaldi and 40 mile from the lipari, this maybe my imagination stretching it a bit but why not. A couple of image...

The same type of outline and size on the Garibaldi seamount, just need a third and we will have a "little Giza". Coincidence I'm sure!

A wider view of the area suggests there is a group of similar structures/features.

Well it certainly is a big one and it is almost perfectly aligned, defiantly worthy of a closer look at the region. I had a look through the historical images on GE, whilst there are plenty of them going back to 1984(Alarm bells)(euṓnumos, “lucky”) I guess, none show anything.
