This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

Anon is often crazy.
Anon is often depressed.
Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Concrete doesn't last, stone does. Brick to a lesser extent.

*Concrete with rebar. Roman concrete has lasted plenty long. Though the lime in it helps.

That is true. Roman Concrete is still standing 2k years on. Ours lasts decades, maybe a century if well done.

They used ash from Mount Aetna in Sicily to make some of it. I forget the thing with the lime, how that was different than what we use?
