    73% of all women from every class survived the sinking of the Titanic.

    Only 19% of men survived.

    Speaking of paleolithic emotions and medieval institutions. It's no wonder why young men might be looking around and wondering about these sorts of attitudes.

    Education is extremely important.

      The blokes probably paid for the tickets so it's only fair.

      I was only joking

        The dead ones still earned more than the women.

          The patriarchy was so terrible men even thought they were more worthy of freezing to death than women.

          Thank you for your attention to this matter.

            Especially when we are harangued about being sexists and patriarchs.

                  Marin County I get. But the Tetons and parts of western Colorado? An artifact due to low population density I suppose.

                                Seems an ignominious end for such a notable ship.

                                      ... both spacecraft recorded temperatures between 30,000 and 50,000 kelvin (54,000 to 90,000 degrees Fahrenheit) in this area, ...

                                      Quite surprised that the two spacecrafts could survive such high heat!

                                        They most definitely did not. They would have measured it from a safe distance.

                                          That’s not what the article stated. It said that both craft have passed through the heliosphere. It’s not anything unexpected. It’s been more than theorized, the question was really just how far out it was located. I admit to being surprised that have traveled that far.
