I am almost sorry I brought it up.

Here, read this and reach your own conclusions. I'm not sure I agree entirely with the author, but then he is an expert.

Petey, This is something I wonder about over the longer term. The college-educated, sophisticated, successful professional women and men living in the dense urban areas today are not getting married and not having children. So their genes are disappearing from the human gene pool. Since they are con...

How can any politician even bring up free college when our current "free" education results in this? https://nsf.gov/nsb/sei/edTool/data/highschool-06.html https://nces.ed.gov/programs/coe/indicator_cnb.asp Why the F isn't this the focus? Statistically, only half of those who go to college...

Not really related except the discussion is about upstate NY. Was up there this past week to get a few days vacation. Driving around I couldn't help but see the difference in the farms in NY compared to here in western PA. Where the fracking is going on here in PA the farms have updated and upgraded...

fan, my guess would be 95% will complain, maybe 5% will try to do something about it. Very few will change their lifestyle to any great affect. Red, I too am trained in science. Only a moron would say climate change doesn't exist. The climate has been changing from one extreme to another for a lot l...

My question is this: all these kids are going to skip school every Friday until climate change is stopped. (Actually heard a young girl stating pretty much that this is the plan.) So the question, how will they know when enough has been done and they can go back to school? What are the markers? Are ...

Meanwhile, back at the bird story, this has been a growing issue for years. But it too is controversial. They either are, or are not, the reason for the decline in birds. More study is needed!! U.S. Faces Growing Feral Cat Problem https://www.nationalgeographic.com/animals/2004/09/feral-cat-problem/

Um, maybe because that is what is being spread by the news. Habitat loss and climate change are among the major factors impacting the decline of bird populations. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/nova-scotia/bird-decline-population-north-america-nova-scotia-reaction-1.5292081 More than 30% of our bree...

Why would you post a story about the decline of birds without mentioning the four leading causes of annual bird deaths? The stories I have read in the past week mention habitat loss, pesticides, and climate change. No mention of cats or windows (cat lovers argue that windows kill more), wind turbine...

Oops, now the NYT is walking the story back. Is there no smear they will not use just to protect abortion rights? Should every Dem candidate who came out over the weekend and smeared Kavanaugh apologize for it?

People with a criminal record were also more likely to die as homicide victims.[84] Between 1990 and 1994, 75% of all homicide victims age 21 and younger in the city of Boston had a prior criminal record.[99] In Philadelphia, the percentage of those killed in gun homicides that had prior criminal r...

Oh, this is over a year old, so it must be out of date.

What is extreme is the 24 hour report everything in sight mentality we have.

Or pontificating on it.

Just read a good story, that if Medicare spends $1.00 for home-delivered meals to Medicare recipients just released from the hospital, they can save $1.57 on each $1.00 spent. This is like magic. My suggestion is that they get out of the medical field all together and go into the food home delivery ...

Lionize him all you want, he will be remembered as just another politician whose stripes (and convictions) changed colors with his moods.

So on the radio this AM was the story about R Kelly being arrested for the same perverted behavior (underage forced sex). But what caught my ear was the comment about how many of his supporters surround the courthouse. At least we don't see anyone supporting Epstein (other than his own lawyers of co...

TLD, do a little research and back up your statement. Choice or necessity? I would be curious to know if that data is out there. The press loved her, but here is on educator that is not so enthralled. https://educationrealist.wordpress.com/2019/06/28/more-than-gotcha-kamalas-busing-blunder/ You mea...

So how many actually work two jobs? Listening to the debates, it must be a lot. But Bureau of Labor Statistics data show only a small minority of Americans work multiple jobs. That percentage has been around 5% of working Americans since 2010, though it was higher before then. Last month 7.6 million...

Some things just don't change. Except the way that the media decides to cover it. No mention of a "constitutional crisis" in this story. For the rest of the country, the impact is likely negligible. While the debate over — and the separation of powers between the legislative and executive ...

dis, you never disappoint. I did read it, I'm not sure you did or maybe you didn't comprehend it, but he makes valid points from a frogs-eye view. But with Obama setting the stage by leading from behind, and Trump being ambivalent and scattershot about foreign relations, is he wrong? And a true cons...
