My kingdom for a flat roof

Rooftop Farms Are The Growing Thing
Green roofs are wonderful things, keeping buildings cool and reducing heat island effects. But you usually can't eat them. Now, rooftops around the world are being put to productive use as sources of food. Often they are tied to restaurants; Uncommon Ground in Chicago has a 2500 square foot rooftop garden.

Just think, until deer learn to fly I wouldn't need fences and deterrents!

Not sure where to post this but I wanted to ask if anyone has heard of National Clicks?

Can someone help me find it?

Overheard some co-workers talking about it all week but didn't have time to ask so I thought I would post it here to see if someone could help me out.

Seems to be getting alot of buzz right now.

Thanks
