I've been told he's one of the nicest guys around, especially to his fans. Very charitable in fact. I'm not a "fan" but he seems to have a balanced approach to issues, giving advocates on both sides a chance. Besides, he's a self described liberal. Sounds like you guys would get along.

If that is so, then, I'm sure he would appreciate my position.

I don't know what that means, but I do know that SDUSD schools played soccer games tonight.

Soccer is in season so it’s not covered by the ban. Things like Football (9v9), baseball, or volleyball are out of season so these teams cannot meet even though they do scrimmages and tournies at this time of year and students can’t even use the gym.
 
reading up on the Virginia freeway pileup with drivers stuck for hours with no way to get it. It started with 1/2 the Virginia dept of transportation (which includes the plow drivers) out sick (unclear if some claiming sick just to avoid working during holidays). Rain prior to the snow meant it couldn’t be pretreated. Bad weather met people driving back up to the Washington DC area post holiday (which basically shuts down during the holidays). The Icey snowed over roads led to a few collisions snarling traffic. Some people abandoned their vehicles. The tow trucks were also affected by illnesses which made it hard to get them out to clear. Gov n also sort of checked out and youngkins admin isn’t in place yet so that got lost in the middle of the transition. Feds out for the holidays so they couldn’t be called to help and unclear what they could do anyways.

Chicago teachers union has apparently voted to strike to force Chicago schools back to remote learning.

From what I understand, the Chicago teachers union voted to switch to remote learning to try to force city officials to agree. In response, city officials called off instruction altogether for Wednesday and said remote learning is not an option. Basically the two sides are at a standoff to see which side will cave. It’s an interesting battle to witness.

We've already had the discussion re ad-hominems. Per the test espola set out, they aren't ads as they don't go to your character, only the nature of your arguments. Therefore they have his blessing.

Objection!

I don’t consent to the pseudo-‘grand poobah’ status for espola in regards to ad-hominems that don’t involve espola.

Otherwise we need to deal with his new credential.

The humanities degree qualifies you to bullshit with confidence, but nothing more.

Not a Renaissance man I assume…. That used to imply well rounded, but if Wittgenstein and ‘grand poobah’ espola agree that the meaning of words are relative to their use, than maybe the humanities are > stem when words define meaning.

These days experience seems to be irrelevant. Which side you row for appears to trump experience. Academic scientists/MDs are usually bought and paid for by entities that don't really care about health outcomes. It's a common phenomenom that's always occured outside the limelight. oh how times have changed.

Do you then wonder why some 3% of scientists are climate change deniers? The ones on fossil fuel payrolls (although they know the truth).

What lies? Again, interesting take if you've never listened? I'm assuming you are taking exception with the Dr. Malone interview. Just curious as to what you think the lies are?

But, it's free country (for the most part) and you don't have to listen. At least spotify gets the censorship piece right.

Where did you get this 3% from? All scientists? Climate peeps? Who are these scientists? Of course a "scientist" that works for Exxon, etc would lean pro-fossil fuel. Besides, where would we be with the leaky vaccines if it wasn't for fossil fuels? Probably without leaky vaccines. Then what?
