This is an original joke that definitely doesn't ignore the staff post.
Brilliant link, thank you for sharing. Amazing planning and good that the Versailles Oaks are ready to fulfill their purpose as replacement for the beams. Incredible.So this in interesting:

Apparently not only did the PFD have a plan for what to do in case Notre Dame burnt, but they(not PFD) actually planted a bunch of oaks 160 years ago to replace the roof beams, should the need arise.

There are chemical treatments for wood nowadays they could only dream about back when those trees were planted; they could be made much more fire resistant then bare wood.Wow, that's pretty incredible. Though part of me was thinking that they'd rebuild the roof with a material that was a tad less...flammable, in order to prevent the possibility of this ever happening again - or at least on this scale. I suppose they could always rebuild it with those oaks and then just outfit it with a state of the art fire detection/sprinkler system or something. The reconstruction process for this whole thing is going to be very interesting to watch.
Wood is actually pretty good at maintaining structural integrity in case of fire. Better than steel at any rate.Wow, that's pretty incredible.

I'm not sure how I feel about this. I'd rather they used some other materials than 700+ tonnes of wood, plus it'd be a shame to get rid of those oaks. Even if they were planted for this purpose 160 years ago back then getting rid of trees was not thought of to be as it's thought of today.Brilliant link, thank you for sharing. Amazing planning and the Versailles Oaks look stunning in all their glory, ready to fulfill their purpose as replacement for the beams. Incredible.
Even a priest firefighter to grab the crown of thorns! So thankful that they have such measures in place and enacted them well.
This makes me wonder what planning there is for other historic structures in the event of fires or disasters.
Thank you. I sent that to my mum who's devastated.So this in interesting:

Notre Dame would always remain the beautiful structure it is even with modern materials and over time that will become part of history along with the fire incident, but getting rid of these trees means we won't get this beautiful place to look like this again for another 160 years or so provided they do a replantation.
Did some digging and that twitter thread is bullshit. There aren't any other source for this except this rando on twitter who had no following before.Thank you. I sent that to my mum who's devastated.
E: Oh wow the window survived. Amazing news!
Of course! And I'm so happy those guys, and apparently the gargoyles, were "out of town", as it were.
My fave, eating his grapes.
Thanks for doing the digging, a shame that someone would just conjure bullshit but I guess I shouldn't be surprised.Did some digging and that twitter thread is bullshit. There aren't any other source for this except this rando on twitter who had no following before.

It is even more beautiful than that.
Apparently:
- The guy has never won in a single election, and
- He was found guilty in a court of justice of libel and conspiracy over five years ago.
So props to Fox News for choosing to interview that guy in particular, and label him an "elected official" even.
That requires a special kind of talent too.

Yeah it's kinda hilarious that they act all high and mighty after inviting him
You can tell that Anor Lando looks a lot like the sprawling connections on the outside. I have no idea anymore what is and isn't sarcasm.
Did the other 11 year olds in your class laugh at this joke
For the reccord ironically had the stained glass busted it would have been the least of our concerns the original plans for them are at the BNF in multiple copies so that would have been the "easier" thing to recreate.How the stain glass window survived I'll never understand.
But again, those firefighters are hero's for saving what they did.
Yes and no
