      Originally, “Tar Heel” was a derogatory term, referencing the sticky mess of the North Carolina pine tar industry. It became a complement after Robert E Lee reportedly said “God bless the Tar Heel boys” after North Carolinans stuck to their position while others retreated.

      Oh, this thing. I was born in Maryland and when moving here in 1998, I didn’t know what the term meant!https://www.newsobserver.com/news/business/article238221784.html …

          I don't suppose you could lend your support to saving the RDU Forest in Cary could you?

          I looked into this and the economics don’t make sense for pure nature conservation, as it’s not rare species habitat and costs around $40,000/acre, versus high priority conservation land in the mountains and coast for $2000-$6000/acre.

          There is a cool hike at Harris Lake that has a section about Tar Heels. Check it out when it won't be muddy.

          Did they mention that you're changing the industry for the worse with EGS? I can definitely agree that UE4 yields you a net positive though, and I am still hoping you'll come around and understand the PR damage of going exclusive with PC titles. Fortnite $$$ running dry anyway...
