Today on Friday Night Fights:  the Doxing Wars continue.  This time around, it just happens to be the US Supreme Court Justices.  It breaks Mr. Jon's Rule #3, I firmly believe there are several violations to privacy and public safety pre- and post-Doxing, and the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) should be amended. Read it here before it gets taken down:   Read Justice Alito's initial draft abortion opinion which would overturn Roe v.

This year, Fairbanks had received a record of snowfall that the city / region has not seen since 1992.  In that winter, it was ~139 inches.  This year it was ~92 inches.  The average between 1991-2020 was ~65 inches.
