It's no good bolting the stable door once you've led the gift horse to water.

Yeah, but you can sit on its head and drown it.

@kluurs said in Joe's COVID Committee:

BTW, he's a brother of Rahm Emanuel.

So, I assume he has a gutter mouth.

Our Doc is recommending quarantine for 1 week and monitor his temp and see if he develops symptoms...

Yes it does.

Your ability to draw erroneous conclusions is breathtaking. 55555

Again if the Vaccine is 90% effective American perspective of the job to be done will be so so different. Mostly distribution effectiveness. Not like Biden will get us to think about how dangerous it is.

@George-K said in Labor Epidurals and Autism:

Children whose mothers were given an epidural during labor may face a slightly heightened risk of autism, a large, new study suggests.

Correlation does not imply causation.

And that's what the study says.

And it's a retrospective study.

True. I was judging the case by your "tl;dr" version, which uses the phrasing "may face", which sounds more like causality to me.

@jon-nyc said in Trump's reaction to losing:

The problem is the websites you follow show rumors and apparent irregularities but don’t present the information when they are debunked or fully explained.

Take for instance the two examples you give - the 6k error in that MI county has been identified as user input problem which has nothing to do with the functioning of the software and the WI apparent turnout anomaly was a combination of bad data and a lack of knowledge about how WI works.

And you constantly follow the NYT, which is a steaming pile of calculated Left Wing bullshit. But I will give them kudos for it admitting it.

Also just saw the Pfizer vaccine news ... maybe that's also driving market reactions today.

I'm surprised the list is that short.

If they were able to find the 6K votes glitch last week, how come they haven't found any since then?

If there are supposed to be all these other counties that have the same problem, it seems like we should have heard some invalid vote counts from them by now.

Agree

If you drew a composite figure of a successful white suburban Philadelphia man it would look exactly like Joe Biden. And being from Delaware, which could be another suburb of Phila and not being a New Yawker helped immensely.

That's inspiring, all right. 😐 Probably not the way he means it, though.
