    So you all think the color of your skin is a social construction that you can just change?

    I agree with Klaus. It is good to have different opinions and I oftentimes learn from those different opinions.

    I would not want to be where there is a thread that says "President Trump is bad", and the replies are +1, +2, +3, etc.

    I would not want to be where there is a thread that says "President Trump is good" and the replies are +1, +2, +3, etc.

    That would get boring. LOL

    I was once in a seminar on negotiations/relations with different countries and cultures. One of the exercise was to list a topic we are passionate about and list some bullet point to help our point of view.

    When we were finished, the instructor took mine and said, "Okay, Jennifer, now I want you to tell me why all the points you listed are wrong!! What is your argument against these??"

    It really helped me to look at other points of view and understand where they received their point of view.

    I do not agree all the time with everyone on this forum board, but I like the different opinions and ideas that are expressed.

    It would be fantastic is some of the forum posters from the other boards (or even new posters) were to come back to here. Variety is good!!!!

    Working with mechanical engineers in Canada was very confusing - they talked about measurements being in 'mils', by which they meant thousands of an inch.

    They've been working a lot on free agency so there may not be a lot of room left for more pics.

    @Aqua-Letifer said in Irish PM picks up hospital shifts:

    I wonder if it's a public relations move or because he still takes his call to medicine seriously.

    Either way, good for him.

    May he stay well...

    better than nothing is a good start. Add some furnace filter material in the construction of it, and I wonder how that improves.

    @jon-nyc said in Purely Political:

    Yeah, just think about how horrible it would be if we get through all this, and instead of it costing us 5 trillion, it cost us 5.001 trillion and we had a few thousand more ventilators then we really needed.

    Please, Mr. Trump, save us from that awful fate.

    And Loki - thank you for keeping laser focused on this issue for us.

    It wasn’t a cost of the vents issue. It was many issues, state vs fed, cuomo being the front man to take on Trump, blah blah blah but I am not going to take the time to type it all out.

  • I have an announcement.
