When those charging are closed for business, due to the pandemic?

Meaning, they're not open for business, so one cannot get the services that the recurring payments are for. One can also not reach the business to stop the payments, because they are closed.

OK folks, let's help each other out a bit. This idea came to me as I posted in another thread about a visit I had yesterday with some friends. We conversed across the front lawn obeying the rules of social distancing but still being within eyeshot and it was truly uplifting after being quarantined in my house after work for 7 days yet.

I just checked Gas Buddy and there is a town in Wisconsin where unleaded is $0.999/gallon. Devlan, WI.

I live near Eau Claire, WI where is recently dropped to $1.499. Too bad we can't go anywhere.

The coronavirus stimulus relief bill offers direct cash payments of up to $1,200 for individuals and $2,400 for couples, with $500 added for every child, based on 2019 tax returns for those who filed them and 2018 information if they have not. The benefit begins to phase out for individuals making $75,000 in income and ends completely for those making $99,000 or more.

The Department for Homeland Security announced today that Real ID requirement will be delayed for one year. The new date is October 1, 2021.

Installed normally and didn't create any apparent problems.

I just want to share a project of mine to my fellow data-heads. I've created a web-app at https://www.omjroute.com/ which uses data abstracted from here for several layers (tools/set layer).

Also yesterday I created a query at Data_World for current Covid-19 files, parsed it into JSON and turned it into a layer in my app. Here's my blog post about it: https://www.oldmanjim.com/daily-status

Just wanted to post a thanks to all who maintain the POI files here!!!

The State Run Liquor Stores... ABC Stores, are installing intercoms... Purchases will be done via Drive-up in the near future!

Where I live the houses were reassessed and mine doubled.

It's unprecedented because I've lived here since 2002.

My buddy said you had better hope the mil rate is adjusted or your s******.

I didn't do anything illegal, have no improvements, etc.

These 2 files were last updated on 16 Jan 08( MLB ) and 22 Mar 07( NHL ). Will anyone be updating these 2 files anytime soon?

I received my Census 2020 login ID in the mail today. I went to the .gov website, logged in and submitted my information. It was very simple to navigate and the website worked fine for me. With only two people in my household, it only took about 10 minutes fill in the information and submit it.

This week we're recognizing, Bwarden!

Bwarden has been a member of POI Factory for over 12 years.

He maintains numerous files and last week updated several of the Ti-Met Bus Stops and Light Rail files.
Since there's a necessary slowing of public transportation usage at the moment, and likely will be for awhile, I wanted to get him recognized this week.

I have read that some people are speculating that certain retailers will have some "fire sale" prices on certain devices after COVID-19 is behind us. While I am certainly no economist, I can understand why some people are predicting that.

Ever been driving down a road and see something that the location of would be useful to someone here at POI Factory or for your personal use and you were unable to write it down due to to safety reasons or the lack of a pen and paper?

I won the lottery for a trip to The Wave this summer. I will be going! I am driving though, so my chance of exposure should be lower than those flying or riding in a tin tube with the general public. Let's hear from the crowd.
