    ** flags at Vet cemeteries

    The Department of Veteran affairs said That they’re prohibiting events at national cemeteries on Memorial Day. Scouts aren’t directly targeted. You’re harping on the scouts because it makes it seem like something sinister is going on. it’s entirely reasonable to think that the elderly would be...

    ** flags at Vet cemeteries

    Unbelievable. It's almost like they'd want to protect the elderly from a pandemic that has high mortality rates in older people.

    Furnace Archaeology

    Hopefully this doesn't interrupt all of the Coronavirus fuelled conspiracy threads happening elsewhere on the site but I came across a video that explains how 17th and 18th century blast furnaces worked. It's from a show in the UK called Time Team, where a team of archaeologists have three days...

    Stop leaving feces, bottles of urine at reopened N.J. parks! ‘There is zero tolerance for that,' cops say

    Toothy Critter asked for their account to be deleted, which I did.

    Let me know when that paper gets peer reviewed. Until then it's just someone's hypothesis.

    There is a theory that the DHS put out (and why the DHS instead of the CDC or WHO but whatever) that a combination of sunlight, high humidity, and temperature MAY kill the virus however it's just a theory right now. It hasn't been peer reviewed or tested extensively yet...

    Yes it is. It's simply not true. Cite a reputable source.

    Don't worry, fresh air and sunlight will kill it and if not the Clorox they pipe to the water fountains will.

    Isolation 2020

    This thread is an example of why I never allowed political crap on the site. I told Boyd not to delete or do anything and we'd see how bad it would get and, well, here we are.

    Isolation 2020

    And I apologize for bringing politics into this, especially since the standing rule here is no political discussion and it's kept this site from becoming a toxic shithole like so many other discussion forums. But I don't think that there's a way of discussing this without bringing politics into...

    Isolation 2020

    Ever since 2016 there's been a big push to discount science and the work of experts, especially when they disagree with what the president and the right wing media says. Dr. Fauci is urging caution, and the president is on record with not agreeing with what he has to say. People are now...

    Isolation 2020

    Our president gets a lot of his direction from the Fox News opinion folks who are currently doing everything they can to undermine Dr Fauci. The president was initially reluctant to propose stay at home orders and has largely left it to the states, which is why places like Florida only recently...

    Isolation 2020

    Because I’m talking about what we understand now. We understand, in fairly good terms,viruses and virology. However Covid 19 is new and not well understood. That’s why they call it “novel”.

    Isolation 2020

    This isn't martial law. Martial Law is when they put the military in charge of a civilian population, which requires an act of Congress to happen. The Army hasn't started shooting people for trying to walk around Batsto. You can go to Walmart because they sell food and other essential supplies...
