Fleastiff Member since: Oct 27, 2012 Threads: 62 Posts: 7831 | One study concluded that anesthesia doses in the elderly do not have to be reduced because there is no connection to earlier deaths, but same journal issue published a conclusion that it was invalid to draw any conclusions. It's a new type of peer review that focuses on a study's parameters, not its conclusions. Indeed the peer reviewers are blind to the conclusions, but only the methods. |

Yeah, 75% still comes from non renewable and always will. Solar and wind cost more than they save and are inefficient as hell compared to what they cost. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

lol, what are your oil stocks being threatened? If their market is saturated, it's probably bringing down the cost of solar as well. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

odiousgambit Member since: Oct 28, 2012 Threads: 154 Posts: 5112 | This seems to be news not much covered in the US by the mainstream media. I'm not sure why it isn't clear that the problem is Mexico is not stopping people from crossing in to Mexico from Central America. If it was just Mexicans, we could probably deal OK with it.

There has been some news that Mexico is starting to stop the caravans. Probably not all they should be doing, but Trump telling them there will now be consequences (tariffs) seems to have gotten their attention. About time. The President is a fink. |

odiousgambit Member since: Oct 28, 2012 Threads: 154 Posts: 5112 | It might be a game of whack-a-mole too, pretty wide there altogether. On the other hand, stopping 100% need not be the goal. I'm Still Standing, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah [it's an old guy chant for me] |
