Yet "microdosing" seems to be a thing in SV & the Bay. Who to believe? Bottom line: You clearly don't mind the idea of additional hormones in farm-raised beef. That's great you've made a decision based on your r

Here's a policy: Regardless of what's in your underpants -- don't sneeze in the air, don't cough on people and keep thy cooties to thyself. Pretty simple really. Not everything is about sexual identity. This SJW nonsense

If the efforts are effective, perhaps not. If. But just doing something/anything isn't the same as solving the problem. Building an umbrella over the ice caps is 1) not technologically possible and 2) the secondary effects of the
