"especially if they are uncooperative." Oh yeah. I really don't like the idea of an officer having discretion in these situations. First sign of bad legislation IMHO.

The real story is the fact that mainstream media is ignoring it. The silence is deafening and trumpets their allegiance to big pharma and the criminal injustice complex. Edit: I live in Oregon and voted for this. So yay, we're moving i

Thanks again for turning me onto the book. I just got it and I'm through the first chapter already. I eat bison for the same reasons alluded to barely in the first chapter: they graze well[1], and they have evolved together with the su

Thank you for the recommendation. Probably my next book to read. There is a little bison operation here in Oregon and I'm a regular customer. Strange to think that we are saving them by eating them. I like the "move everyone to Te

Try grinding your own flour from organically grown wheat and baking bread with that. I'm guessing she won't have a problem with it since this is essentially what is going on in Italy. They just call it making bread there.

Arrhenius' descendant, Greta Thunberg, is leading a worldwide effort to keep global warming under 1.5 degrees. She has been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize as well. Maybe there will be 2 Nobels in the family.

Better public transportation plus biking/walking/skating can handle the lion's share of this.

Back when I had a truck and a good back I helped friends move their couch into an apartment. It was close but I somehow managed to get it in. They told me later that they weren't able to get it back out no matter how hard they tried. I

I've taken the train across the country several times. I don't hate to fly(it's getting pretty bad actually) but I love to take the train. I never get a sleeper and I recently discovered a way to make the journey way more com

The problem with airplanes is that the carbon is released in exactly the wrong place[0] so your intuitions are correct. We are stuck between a rock and a hard place as far as air travel is concerned: don't fly and we lose a major compo

Apparently in Europe you're the customer. However on this side of the Atlantic we're the product. Big difference. It's like sitting down at a poker game and looking around the table. If you can't spot the mark, well you&

Thank you for putting it so clearly. I'm afraid there are too many lost souls who think the 4th Estate still exists. Except for a few truth tellers here and there on the internet, it no longer does.

Every time I wake up in the morning and I'm still in the good old USofA, everything I touch has a petroleum component associated with it. Before, I was putting a tankful of CO2 into the atmosphere along with its associated manufacturin

"Only use diesel fuel with a blend of 5 % biodiesel (B5) or below." Don't fall for the FUD. I've been running B99 for 15 years in my 98 Jetta TDI. Everyone else had to replace their injector pump because of the switchove

Yes, Godel used Cantor's method of diagonalization in his proof. Turing also used it on the halting problem. Penrose talks about this in "The Emperor's New Mind." Cantor rocked the Casbah. Smart people saw it and used it

Depending on which state you live in access to high CBD is restricted. I believe CO and WA allow high CBD, OR only allows low CBD at this time. Not sure about other states.

Or let them die and spend our efforts helping main street instead of Wall Street. Of course that would require a shift of priorities away from saving those who caused the mess.

We can blame, in large part, the MSM for having on only generals and contractors and feeding us the bullshit line that torture works and is a good thing.

Not on the team. Not even close. My under standing from other comments from the team is yes and yes. The reason we needed a collision of black holes was to get the signal up to where we can detect it. And they definitely said that this prov
