As the population of a town/city doubles the pace of life increases by 1.15x. The pace of life, meaning the number of socio-economic interactions, whether it is meeting someone on the street, buying something from a convenience store, business meetings, whatnot, increases faster than the doubling of the population.
This is one of my favs. It captures the dual nature of Casey-ness, romantic and ruthlessly analytical — a habit of mind that will yield some delicious whisky.
Plane... used to be Wakkanai to Rishiri was operated by tiny twin otter plane, capacity of only 19 passengers. It was scary as hell. Felt like 10 min rollercoaster. Is that plane still exist?
If I have to pick twin otter or ferry, I would rather take 2 hours ride of ferry.
I've heard about that one. It's no longer in operation, but the adventurous part of me would love to try it, at least once. Probably not with the kids in tow, my littlest one gets sick enough on the ferry as it is.
Our local team is very impressed with JAL pilots in particular. Seems they don't cancel much and make impressive landings despite the cloud cover.
Thanks for sharing, Casey. I felt like I was traveling with you in my imagination; peace and joy.

It's the 2nd from bottom for number of views. Learning: "Math" in the title doesn't sell. Here I was trying to be all romantic about analytics.

Glad that ANA, JAL operate from CTS to RIS now.
