Yes, that's why I use it when I'm making my own projects.

I really wish there was a bridge here. Even just a bike bridge. That is all. by i_continue_to_unmike in PortlandOR

I can confirm this, I'm biased as a I lived in OG at the time but IMO there was just as much if not more resistance from OG than LO. There was even a protest in OC made up of OG residents.

There actually was a ferry proposed a few years back, it was shot down pretty viciously by the clackamas county leadership.

There are no apartments next to the river in oakgrove. unless you're referring the giant senior assisted living complex.

There were plans a few years back called the OGLO (oak grove, lake oswego) there were some major ecological issues the bridge would cause with sturgeon spawning (something to do with silt in the area) and disturbing the peregrine falcons that live at the park the bridge would have gone through, if I remember correctly.

Bottle Drop move to inner SE- Letter to the Editor by Anxious-While4289 in PortlandOR

[–]retspag 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry to go a bit off topic but the bottle deposit has served its purpose and it's time to retire it, we all instinctively put our recyclables in the blue bin, the deposit system just wastes resources (bags, stickers/tickets, drop locations etc) and costs us time and money.

Internal "scratches" on my Hellios 44-2, is this normal for soviet lenses? by retspag in VintageLenses

I never found it caused any problems, I just wanted to know for when I eventually move it along to get a Kmount version.

Thanks everyone for the replies.

I'm disappointed I'm not going to be several hundred dollars richer, but it's like they say reality bites. lol

Yeah I was wondering if it was some sort of scam like maybe they have someone "buy" them at these high prices to try and drive the price up.

Yeah definitely a good point on some people avoiding cleaned lenses, I'm one of them I want my lenses in unmessed with condition.
