Talk:Three-point hitch

message: The other great benefit ( possibly the main one )  of the 3 point linkage is that it converts the drag of the implement behind the tractor into downward force on the tractors wheels. Put another way it makes the tractor heavier in direct proportion to the amount of work being done.
Prior to the 3 point linkage tractors had to be very heavily built otherwise their wheels would slip / spin when doing heavy work. After its invention tractors could be smaller and lighter with all the attendant cost benefits. The famous Grey Fergies could never have pulled a plough without it.213.2.177.92 15:15, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

message: "The implements can be either hooked on to the hitches of the tractor, as well as implements that are pulled and are connected to the hitches."
This sentence makes no sense. Well, to me, anyway. Is it saying that implements can be hooked directly to the tractor hitches, or to other implements that are themselves hooked directly to the tractor hitches? Or is it saying something else? Cwelgo (talk) 17:21, 16 June 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  Confusing sentence structure 

message: The article might be improved by an illustration(s) showing how the arms move in a typical three point hitch.  This diagram
may also point out that typically the length of the top link can be adjusted, and that an adjustment can level the lower arms.  The diagram could also illustrate a draft sensing mechanism. On the Ferguson, this looks to be on the top link based on what I see in the photo, but I think it's usually on the forward end of the lower arms on most modern tractors.) --Aflafla1 (talk) 02:40, 15 January 2012 (UTC)

thread_title: Untitled

message: For everybody's information, the United States has no authority under the U.S. Constitution to create national holidays.  The Congress can only create holidays for the US Government (i.e. federal employees), the District of Columbia, four of the five territories (it cannot create holidays for the Northern Mariana Islands), certain private business entities that the U.S. Government has constitutional authority to directly regulate (such as federally-chartered banks), military bases, the Postal Service, and such like.
Everything else in the way of creating holidays is *state* jurisdiction.  DC and the Territories can also create their own holidays, but except for the Northern Mariana Islands the federal government can negate the holidays they create; whereas the federal government has no jurisdiction to tell any of the states (or the NMI) that they cannot or that they must create a particular holiday).
Recall that Martin Luther King, Jr.'s Birthday was a federal holiday for two decades before Arizona condescended to finally make it a holiday in that state.  So, the federal banks, federal courts, US Postal Service, were all closed that day in Arizona - but *state* banks were open, as were state government offices, local government offices, etc.
So, while we often refer to federal holidays as "national holidays" there actually is no such thing as a national holiday in the United States - in the *legal* sense.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.162.218.153 (talk) 03:54, 31 March 2016 (UTC)

There was a bill in the legislature in 2019 for a holiday honoring Chávez and Senator Dennis Chávez, which passed the state House but wasn't voted on in the Senate .

Talk:Lex loci delicti commissi

message: The discussion regarding the U.S. citizen who sues in a U.S. court on account of an accident that occurred in Mexico seems muddled.  There are two separate questions which must be determined.  The first is whether the alleged tortfeasor is subject to the personal jurisdiction of a U.S. court.  If he is a resident of Mexico, and does not have "minimum contacts" with the United States, he will not be subject to the jurisdiction of a U.S. court.
If the U.S. court does have jurisdiction, the next question is determining which jurisdiction's laws should apply.  The traditional and historic rule is lex loci delicti, and under that rule, the U.S. court would apply the law of Mexico, as that is where the incident occurred.  Starting about the 1960's, however, many U.S. courts began to pull away from a strict application of lex loci delicti, because too many plaintiffs were losing, and the activist judges believed it was inappropriate in many cases to deny relief to U.S. person injured by a U.S. person, simply because the incident happened to occur in a place where the law was different.  Other theories include (a) the jurisdiction with the most compelling governmental interest (i.e. does Mexico care whether we apply our law in a case in our own courts between our own citizens? and (b) the jurisdiction that has the most substantial relationship, which, in many cases, will result in Mexican law applying anyway.
As an example of a situation which was thought to cry out for reform, consider that if a person travels by automobile from Detroit, Michigan, to Buffalo, New York, the shortest, most direct route is through Ontario, which is in Canada.  At one time (and perhaps currently), Ontario had a statute which provided that, in case of an accident, a non-paying passenger could not sue the driver except for intentional misconduct.  The idea was that this would keep insurance premiums low (whether it did or not, I do not know).  So, if Mollie and her friend, Susie, set out from Detroit to visit their friend, Imelda, in Buffalo, and Mollie, the driver, was negligent, and Susie, the passenger, was injured, and the accident occurred in Ontario, then the law of Ontario would apply, even though Susie sued Mollie in a Michigan or New York court.  The New York courts rejected the traditional rule first, and Michigan, being more conservative at the time, did so much later.
