I heard they sell lower alcohol versions of beers there. Is it because they are all alcoholics that are trying to drink away the fact that they live in Oklahoma?

Oklahoma did not have beer specific stores anywhere I was at.

I would assume so. I asked the indian lady at the casino why there was only 3.2 beer, and she said the Chief wouldn't allow anything with more alcohol.

London's Walkie Talkie Tower Blamed For Melting Car

LONDON (Reuters) - The developers of a London skyscraper that reflects sunlight at such intense levels that it warped panels and melted mirrors on a parked car will not need to break the bank to fix the problem, a project source told Reuters.

The Walkie Talkie tower in the city's insurance district, which is being developed by Canary Wharf Group and Land Securities, was blamed for damaging a nearby Jaguar car this week.

The architect was Uruguayan-born Rafael Vinoly and the building's concave design means developers can squeeze more money from its larger upper floors, where rents are higher.

But the shape acts as a lens that reflects intense beams of sunlight for about two hours a day during two to three weeks of the year and developers are "evaluating long-term solutions", they said in a statement on Monday.
