I'm confused. You start off implying that it would take a lot more severe shortages to change American habits and then later seem to say the current (coming?) changes in habits "will be a net positive". Are you anticipating

Lots of complex software systems are sold this way, allowing customers to add-on features a la carte. I don't see that as a bad thing -- allows people who only need a subset of the functionality to only pay for what they need. Oftentim

Yeah, the bizarre thing is they included "walk for fitness" as an activity in the "indoor fitness" section of the report but not outdoor. Tons of middle-age to elderly people walk outdoors for fitness. Excluding those pe

Aren't those mostly human-related fires? Maybe I'm not seeing everything on mobile but it looks like they're clustered around population centers (such as they are in the Yukon)...?

Yeah, I don't doubt that there are scientific methods to confirm this, I was interested specifically in how the parent commenter knew (maybe she was tested). I mean there are people who see things that aren't there too... I guess

How do you know she's really seeing things others can't see and not just imagining them?

There's extensive discussion about this in the HIV Wikipedia article. Posting such a question here seems like an odd way to learn about this topic if you're truly interested.

The appeal is that the cruise ship itself is a destination (with music, comedy, dining, spas, physical activity, etc.) and that makes a number of stops at other destinations, each with their own character and activities. When you add in the

The "opposite" version of that quote makes less sense to me than "other way around" or "reverse". The opposite of "man oppresses man" would be "man doesn't oppress man", no...?

I agree, but he doesn't really propose a solution. I guess he kind of hints that batters shouldn't be able to step out... but that only really works when the pitcher has a time limit... and that only works with no runners on. Am I
