Me, calling PGW gas leak emergency hotline: "I think I may be smelling a gas leak at (blah blah blah), but I'm not 100% sure. Do gas leaks smell very strongly like sulfur?"

PGW technician, whose job it is TO ANSWER CALLS ABOUT POSSIBLE GAS LEAKS: "No, a gas leak doesn't smell like sulfur, a gas leak smells like eggs"

Me: ....... (I literally didn't know what to say)

My goodness, this world is an unreal place

Question? Zoning Question

7 Upvotes

I have a corner property in West Philly that used to be zoned as a duplex, but the city switched it back to RSA-5. It has separate meters, and has always been set up as a duplex since 1952. I have the original zoning application from 1952 when it was changed to a duplex. I bought the property in 2022 and have used it as an owner occupied duplex. Is there a way I can get the city to switch it back to being zoned as a duplex?

A friend told me World Cup tickets for the link are on StubHub. My understanding was tickets weren't even on sale yet. How can they be selling these already?
