Late last month, Texas Tech University, in Lubbock, opened an interesting new dining hall. Now, I haven’t seen the facility, which according to the university has more than 20,000 square feet devoted to food and cost $45 million to build. So I can’t say whether the dining concepts are anything more than varied, which I gleaned from a news article announcing the grand opening.
Water seems to be everywhere in the news lately. Isaac is slamming the Gulf, while 65% of the country is experiencing drought conditions. Then I came across this article in which the Stockholm International Water Institute predicted the world’s population might be forced to become vegetarian by 2050.
