Most high end GM products have had PDRs for a while that capture forward facing video, overlaying metrics on the screens. Corvette, Cadillac, Camaro, etc. Camera is built into the rearview mirror and data is retrieved with an SD card.

I can explainYou didn't give @meow a lift home?I've seen enough weird **** on my travels through the hinterlands of SC to warrant a dash cam.
Like a few weeks ago, a completely naked dude - other than work boots - smoking a cigarette walking along the side of road in the middle of nowhere. Miles between houses, mostly pine forest and crop plots. Bizarre.

Any decent places for food/beer in Columbus? It looks like I'm heading to a conference there in October. Unfortunately, there'll only be one hockey game during the time I'd be there, and it's the Hurricanes. YIPPEE!

Standard plug for Raising Canes.
Elevator Brewery is real close to the Arena District. It's been a while but I remember their beers being pretty decent. They have a Beerhaus and Taproom within 5 or 6 blocks of each other. Platform is close to them as well. Land Grant Brewing is newish and is across the Scioto from the main Downtown area.
Bodega also had a pretty decent selection. They've undergone some changes since I was there so who knows.
If you want cheap Mexican and good alcohol, Cazuela's is on the north side of the campus (past BWW) and their margaritas were pretty good.

Just want to throw this out there: there is a very specific type of crowd that hangs out at the Arena District bars. Some may compare them to a certain feminine hygiene product.

where was the place we had some beers at? I remember the roof might have opened or something different like that? I remember eating a Cheezus Crust late night, TMNT at some barcade, possibly playing Last of Mohicans on a sidewalk and passing around a bottle of Makers Mark in the last row of the arena.Standard plug for Raising Canes.

It's a cool spot. I don't remember a brewery but I do remember getting some good pasta and ramen. Oh and Jeni's.

Short North is the area that I'm looking to stay, so that would be fantastic to know good places in that neighborhood.

I think the open roof place was Short North Pint House? Google map pictures look familar.
The barcade would have been 16-Bit Arcade, I think.

I believe they called that the Civic Arena.

Heard a great story the other day from an older gentleman that attended a Pink Floyd concert at Civic Arena. His buddy was picking him up after the show and the roof opened during the concert and he said the cloud of smoke that came out of the arena was incredible."I remember the roof might have opened or something different like that?"

Sean McDowell loved to tell that story about Pink Floyd at the Arena. If I could time travel that would definitely be one of the concerts I would attend.

Played that game with friends at our last cookout. Got some pretty interesting answers, and a few that sort of came out of left field.If I could time travel that would definitely be one of the concerts I would attend.
