    Suppression of Free Speech on Covid

    No, they really don't; but enough people are vaxed, it can reduce the spread.

    Where Are You Actually From?

    A friend of mine used to go to Houston where his sister lived, and he said the humidity and heat was way too much for him.

    Where Are You Actually From?

    It's about a 4-hour drive from where I live. I've never been to Texas and have no desire to go.

    Where Are You Actually From?

    Ditto as I can take the cold much better than the heat. The exception is dry heat, as when I've been in Israel, I haven't had a problem with the heat inland where it's dryer. The last time I was there, we had three days in a row of 118 F., and I had no problem with it. However, if I had tried...

    Suppression of Free Speech on Covid

    After what our son went through with shingles a few years ago, I highly recommend getting it. Also, vaccines don't prevent one from getting the virus, but it usually lessens the symptoms.

    I like the Hocking Hills area most, and we're planning a stay there sometime this fall.

    What would happen if the US stopped supplying Israel?

    Bibi and his advisors screwed up by not taking the intelligence about a Hamas assault seriously, thus not having anywhere near enough IDF just north of Gaza. Basically, he's dead meat politically when this conflict draws to a close. Thus, it wasn't an absence of weaponry but an absence of...

    Reminds me of Gandhi's response when asked what he thought of English civilization whereas he said "They should try it".

    Where Are You Actually From?

    My ancestry is Heinz 57 but 95% from northern and western Europe. The shock was when my 23 and Me results showed some ancestry on my father's side from northern India, and, indeed, he does have some of those physical features.

    What would happen if the US stopped supplying Israel?

    I would assume IDF because it's really hard to get an open-carry permit in Israel.

    What would happen if the US stopped supplying Israel?

    Actually, they are, and normally I'm strongly for more gun control. Ever since both Intifadas, it's been felt that Israelis should carry guns, not only for their own protection but for others as well. In 1991, I was at an intersection in Jerusalem, and I saw 7 men and women with a gun just...

    Suppression of Free Speech on Covid

    I wish I could get you a copy of a special edition of Scientific American on covid and the vaccines from 2022. Prior to the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines, basically viruses were killed and then injected into you; but with the new vaccines, what they did was to artificially replicate the dna of...

    I think almost all people oppose it, but yet most will fight or flee when attacked.
