Yes, I'd like you to go on. Even if Blacks were 13.4% of each level of pay, there would still be an overall pay disparity. So I'd like you to explain what you would suggest doing at that point.

Do they? Even minorities are being paid the same as majorities at every level, then the only reason for the overall pay disparity is that there are more majorities employed than minorities. Which is going to be true for as long as they are minorities. Why should they be represented disproportionally relative to overall population?

These days, tarmac is a generic term that refers to the apron (and sometimes paved taxiways and runways), not the specific substance (Tarmacadam) sometimes used in the past for making them.

Not only may they have, they did, and Viking discovered it, and NASA discounted it because they didn't think it was possible at the time.
