Moravian comments on Aug 31, 2019:

It was put very simply by author Daniel Quinn. Look on the environment as a huge brick wall. Every time we kill a species, be at animal, plant, insect or anything else it is like removing a brick from the wall. We can go on doing this year after year with no obvious effect until one day we remove a brick and the whole wall collapses.I am sure we are a long way from this but keep going on the way we are doing and it could happen eventually.

Years ago I suffered from severe social anxiety. I had to do lots of presentation in my job and it terrified me. I read somewhere that beta blockers , normally given to people with heart problems, were useful in alleviate symptoms. I persuaded my GP to give me some and I tried taking one before I was in a situation where I would be crippled by anxiety. They didn't completely cure it but helped dramatically Try to get some and give it a go

I got caught in a downpour a couple of weeks ago and my phone was ruined. No big deal as I still use a 3G Blackberry and I bought a new one for £18 and a little leather pouch for £2 which will hopefully protect it in future. I only use it for calls and texts and wouldn't recognise an app if I tripped over one. I feel a bit sorry for people who are lost without instant access to the world through there expensive smartphones. I was toiling up a forest track on my bike recently and was almost hit by a young woman coming the other way at speed holding on to the bars with her left hand and holding her phone with her right hand.. A serious accident looking for a place to happen.

Does science have all the answers to questions that matter?

Moravian comments on Aug 23, 2019:

"Scientism is an ideology that promotes science as the only objective means by which society should determine normative and epistemological values. The term scientism is generally used critically, pointing to the cosmetic application of science in unwarranted situations not amenable to application of the scientific method or similar scientific standards." Scientism is an ideology. We should be very wary of ideologies. They have killed millions in Russia,China and Europe in past centuries.

Woman arrested for holding black teens at gunpoint

Moravian comments on Aug 18, 2019:

Take her gun away before she shoots some unfortunate person. There seems to be a culture pf paranoia in parts of the USA. I visited a family in rural Idaho last year and the householder told me that he had loaded guns in the house while his children were growing up. Some time ago a drifter had come to the local town and raped and murdered a woman. For this reason he was taking no chances. Not long before our visit someone came to his door looking for help saying that his car had broken down and he chased the person at gunpoint. Very sad but that's what happens when the country is awash with guns and people feel that they have to arm themselves for protection.
