    Oddball lab fact... In Africa, pretty common not to have a very robust or very competent medical lab testing system, especially in rural areas. Some LFT results should be confirmed by more rigorous methods...HIV being the most prominent. Not in much of Africa. You ping positive on one LFT, the doc will reach for a different manufacturer's kit. You ping positive on that one, and tag you're it. Diagnosis established. I have a friend that travels around the world for the ASCP, trying to institute lab personnel training programs. She has some pretty neat stories...

    @Klaus said in From postmodern abundance to premodern survival: I'm not necessarily disagreeing, but he seems to be a little late to the party. Look at the books from Charles Murray, Heather McDonald, Andrew Doyle, ... . They've been saying similar things for years. But you see, they required entire books to establish and support their conclusions. Mr. Hanson did it in a few paragraphs. Therefore he is greater. Books? Give me a break… (snort)

    KC 41 - Bucs 31. CBS: "KC's offense was (almost literally) unstoppable. Brady was otherwise in MVP form, willing the Bucs back within reach multiple times and threading the needle on some clutch throws to Mike Evans. In the end, their efforts were too little, too late and a little too sloppy, with five penalties also hindering their results." Ah well. You win some, you lose some. I love you still, my Buckies.

    @Jolly No . . . I meant that before James Beard and Julia Child, the USA had no standing globally. Those two put the USA on the map. Of course there were important regional influences before their advent, but those were more among Americans than throughout the world.

    A play just happened in the Saints game...Hill trucked a Vikings defender. The guy got up wobbling. Instead of stopping play and immediately evaluating the guy, they put somebody in for him and the defender headed to the bench. Only then did the red cap go check on him. Then the red cap takes him into the treatment tent. The NFL and NFLPA are currently negotiating about concussions...I'm in the NFLPA's corner.

    According to the book Team of Five, Carter wasn't that nice, either.
