It will be a great thing if Daniel's prognosis comes to pass.

She doesn't want to leave California. She knows no one in Oregon, but has friends in the golden state. She feels compelled to help her mentally ill son, this keeps her chained to northern California. I want her to ditch her three bad sons. She says she wishes to but I fear that she can't really...

We live in a plutocracy. This means we are ruled by the rich. According to the recent IPCC report that says we have a lot less time to correct our damage to our atmosphere than previously thought, 100 corporations are responsible for 71% of carbon pollution. So this means that our Plutocracy...

Inflation is much worse than admitted to by gummint. I actually had five figures in the bank. So much less now. Now that I'm pushing 70 yoa it no longer seems like a ridiculous amount of years to achieve. Old people with no money are in rather severe danger. Thank you very much for helping me to...

Not certain that much room for optimism is there. We simply must stop making and using the stuff. Scientific American, admittedly not the most reliable of sources, wrote that 90% of the world's: correction: SEA table salt contains micro plastic. Yum!

Now that's a tear starter! She's absolutely wonderful, thank you very much for finding and posting this Dan!

Caught lying? Since when is that a bad thing? Why ask Massa Tarump, he'll be overjoyed to lie to you.

All she can count on is her dead husband's monthly check for disability from the VA, plus a SS check that isn't all that. Thank you for the advice, but I'd be very surprised if she would "go mobile." I can't afford to help her as much as she needs. I insist on leaving a few grand in the bank...

I am SO glad that you and Gizmo are very knowledgeable with Mint. I've forgotten far more than I once knew about Linux and PC's in general.

You are most welcome! I've watched it twice now, and like it very much.

I'm very happy to learn that you are helping your neighbors who really need it. Sometimes it's easier to avoid folks in need than to deal humanely with them. Well done! TTBMK, my friend doesn't suffer from any mental illness. Yet she is in a most difficult situation. I voice mailed her...

Interesting question. I recently read that it IS easier to lie in a language not your own.

Even people I know and respect insist, or perhaps by default use The Beast on their PC's. And some of them even know better. Maybe this falls under the "lead a horse to water, good luck making it drink" category? After all the recently found terrible things about Facebook some still use it...

I highly recommend that we, the enlightened ones watch "The Untold History of the United States" on Netflix. Why you don't even need to acquire a book, and better still one doesn't have to read it! Am I enlightened? Probably not but I like to learn. This series is by Oliver Stone, so you may...

Isn't this just wunnerful? https://www.zdnet.com/article/researcher-finds-simple-way-of-backdooring-windows-pcs-and-nobody-notices-for-ten-months/

Port Arthur, Texas is a smog horror. Janis Joplin hailed from there. Good does come from bad, once in a while.

Must truth hurt so often? Seems that that's the truth.

Another interesting and horrid fact from the latest IPPC, that's IPCC, sorry, report is that 100 corporations are responsible for 71 per cent of current pollution. Can I get a "go team?"

Gaelic is very mysterious. Most importantly, the Angles and the Saxons did their very best to murder Gaelic. It does sound amazingly furrin' to our ears. Aw durn, there you go, dissing the Dutch. JK! It is a far from mellifluous language, why one simple word illustrates this clearly...

If I detailed the difficulties she faces and the desertion of her by her children we probably both would cry. I can no longer afford to rescue her from her situation, and it was of course not a complete rescue anyway. Maybe I should re-assess my finances? Yet having a little money in the bank...
