For those of you that hate flash and want an HTML5 version:

This looks like it might save a few lives. It's a washable, highly-reflective spray paint for bicyclists that is invisible in daylight: Volvo Life Paint.

Notice at the end of the video where the landscaping is maintained ?
That's STILL more than Matty Moroun does. But how are these idiot owners allowed
to do this. And for a commercial no less !
Thanks Pontiac and Detroit Governments.

I like the skier at the packard plant better.

What ridiculous narration. What exactly was "achieved" there? The Lions lone playoff win in the past 57 years? WrestleMania? Flea Markets? And how in the hell exactly did the PONTIAC Silverdome "stand for Detroit"? Wasn't it precisely the opposite?

Interesting though that they have to go out to the far suburbs now to engage in dramatic "Detroit" ruin porn.

In any event, sad to see the place in such a condition. Why is the owner allowed to let it sit there and rot like that? Why isn't it being torn down? Folks were certainly in a big hurry to tear down Tiger Stadium once it was allowed to slip into such a dilapidated state, and there's pretty much no nostalgic reason at all to hang onto the Silverdome, unless someone's shedding a tear over the heyday of Eric Hipple or monster truck rallies past.

So is the Silverdome's airbag affected by the Takata recall?
