I believe in science.

Or, the energy is expended on the bacteria that munch on our bodies.

Just a shot at Texas. What is it about Texas drivers, especially those in their big trucks, who come out in an ice storm and slide all over the place? Very entertaining to watch for those of us who spend our winters in that weather. It isn't just Texas. When I lived in Seattle, where you could see snow all year high in the mountains when the sky was clear, we had two inches of snow and crashes everywhere in the city. My Illinois room mate and I had a laugh listening to the radio reports.

I'll leap for science as an imaginary hand isn't going to catch me. BTW in my pre teens I realized they weren't able to answer my questions and would either stumble, lie, ignore, or say I'll get back to you(And hope I would forget).

Is the all-volunteer military a success or failure?

Beowulfsfriend comments on Jan 29, 2019:

When i was in, just after the draft ended, a large portion of the military were minorities and even people from foreign countries (at the time a way to citizenship). At sometime, in the 90's or so, that started to change, especially in the Army. And with so many war deployments, the Army now is not meeting their recruitment goals. I am very liberal; my son is ultra liberal. We both agree that a mandatory volunteer system for every American, which could include the military or multiple other options would instill a better feeling toward what it means to be not only a citizen, but to be a caring person.
