    Interesting comments from a retired Lieutenant-Colonel

    "Now look here, you Baltic gas passer... " - Mik, 6/14/08

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      The other alternative is to promote the 5% "safely out of harm's way" 😲

      More seriously, that's a really interesting assessment of society.

      I was only joking

        The guy's quotes are more relevant to crime and the riots over the last decade than they are to the pandemic...

          Of course, the whole "evil" thing could never be allowed... Nobody's evil!

            Do I need to break out my bell curve chart again? 🙂

            Agreed, interesting way to view it. Overall he's probably right. I've often said that 9/10 people will hold the door for you if you need it, among other civil/polite acts of humanity. Unfortunately the media spends all their time focusing on the 1/10 out there...which makes it seem like society is much worse off than it actually is.

              Simple numbers and categories that shape entire societies make for compelling narratives. I bet he learned that in the army too.

              Education is extremely important.
