Gadsden

Gadsden is a city in the Appalachian foothills of Alabama.

Understand

Gadsden was settled in the early 1800s. It has prospered over the years through riverboat commerce, steel production, railways, and agriculture. Though the industry slumped in the late 1980s, the city was awarded the All-America City Award in 1991 for tackling community-wide challenges. The population in July 2009 was 36,744, with an average age of 39.

gollark: It does - except skynet2 because weirdness - work. I just don't know what's going on with whatever you complained about; perhaps events being eaten?
gollark: Anyway, I would investigate the skynet desyncs problem, except I have no idea where to start or what could be doing it.
gollark: ncurses
gollark: What's the use of minificatinizing that?
gollark: Since it has to connect to my external server, and the event system is really weird in CC, it's kind of hard to get real-time communications working well with it.
