Pass the Salt, Please.

21 07 15 - 19:16 Speed Week 2015 CANCELLED!


For the 2nd year, the SCTA board has been forced to cancel Speed Week. Wendover's Mayor Crawford said that in 40 years, he's never seen the mud flows on top of the salt flats last for an entire year.

In the 50's the salt's thickness was measured in feet, but racers have fretted about the dangerously thin salt that is now measured in inches. Many believe that the mineral extraction (fertilizer) industry is responsible for depleting salt concentrations over the last few decades. They tend to point the finger at engineers that buy off on permits for the federal Bureau of Land (Mis)Management, who should be held responsible for fixing this situation.

It works OK, but it’s no Flipboard killer; this is no slick digital magazine. Instead, the design of the News app is pretty basic. You see a list of headlines on a kind of homepage.
