    Cancer research is actually pretty popular at the end of the day. And every senator has at least one big research university in his state.

    @Doctor-Phibes What an incredible funding opportunity! Nothing like funding initiatives to "prove" something true. Certainly no confirmation bias baked in there . . . not to mention a hypothesis already rejected ad nauseam. "This time we'll prove it right, if we just give enough money to the 'right' group'!"

    @jon-nyc said in Counseling works.: It’s a story about a man saving a stranger’s life. What could be more wholesome than that? LOL. A good take on the story!

    If that's for real--I like that lots and lots. I kind of think that's a show, they certainly "hype" the tubes. I had a Magnatone M15. I used it for R&R and I used it for my stereo. 30 tubes I think--but most likely less. [image: 1755979621582-90385fda-5111-4ecf-af1e-2f319e9978c7-image.png] Let me add: I rewired both my 6 string and my 12 string for stereo. Each pick up on the guitar played through a different side of the amp. It created a wall of noise (as opposed to a wall of sound.) I was cool, though.

    They may have been looking for reasons to deny them. Which I fully support. They should never ever go free.

    I read somewhere that a person is never more than 6ft away from a spider at any time.

    I guess that Nvidia lets employees buy up to 15% of their salary in company stock, and they sell it to them at a 15% discount. (DOnt know if there is any matching by the company or not.) There was some mid level engineer at Nvida who did this and recently retired with USD$62MM!!

    We have that situation too. I've tried to get her to agree to either printer on both floors, or move the one down to the first floor where we use it most.
