To Mask or Not To Mask?

Wow.
Also in the news today a Florida sheriff is forbidding masks in his facility. Visitors and staff. I guess it isn’t really about liberty after all.
@jon-nyc You and I have great minds. I was just going to post on this. LOL

Masks are a product of fear.

Once they use data as plural, I'm done.
Once they used data as plural, I paid attention.
We've talked about this before, but, I sort of appreciate the attention to the precision of Latin.
But...that's just one datum.

John Derbyshire once had a corner post about his unhappiness with these colonial editors at NR changing his ‘data is’ to ‘data are’. His argument, which I found compelling, is the word was now English and not Latin. In English it’s a mass noun like rice or sand. In Latin it’s plural but if you’re using it as a Latin word than you would italicize it. But nobody italicizes it because it’s an English word.

I got 40% on my Latin exam.
One should always try to XL, however difficult the subject.
