Bonnie is going from Marfa to Alamogordo at 73 mph, being pursued by pro-lifers who started trailing her near Wink doing 76 mph. Where is Bonnie pulled over, by civilians, on what grounds?
It's algebra, I think?

Would one of those atolls that has an altitude exceeding the ocean's surface level for a few hours a day be suitable?
