The 'new and improved' Badwater:  July 28, 2015 with revisions (major or minor ?) to Badwater--starts late in the evening now. 8:00, 9:30, and 11:00 p.m. That "little" change in starting times removes what might have been the primary element of Badwater--getting through the hot part in the heat of the day. It doesn't really matter with Badwater (with or without ™, ©, ®, €, or ø ) now thought to be any one of several places scattered across the U.S. If they get a decent field, the records should fall with that "cool" temperature start. The historical aspect of Badwater is gone. In a year or two, or even right now, few will know the difference.

This is the year I'm going to start putting in for it. I've just been waiting to gain enough experience to be taken seriously by the election committee.
