How to Reduce Shootings.

davknight comments on Aug 31, 2019:

The big problem there, is just who does the diagnosis. And just how "mental illness" is defined. What if the current presidential administration defined poor people, the homeless, Democrats, Libertarians, and Socialists as "mentally ill"? then, only the Fascists would be able to keep, and bear arms.And the rest of the population would be defenseless against them.

Is it pagan of me to be lighting a fire and being entranced by the flames? Oh well ..

davknight comments on Aug 31, 2019:

Actually, in Anthropology, there is a theory that the discovery of fire was a stimulus on the development of speech.Fire brought Humans together, and got them talking to each other. So, maybe the Human fascination for fire really is a primal instinct on our part?

davknight comments on Aug 29, 2019:

Only a small minority of people in any military are in the combat arms (infantry, artillery, armor). Most are logistical support people, like you find in any warehouse, or loading-dock. And most would be ill-equipped to handle the insurgent side of an asymetric war, which would necessarily be a hybrid of an underground, and guerilla conflict. Veterans would prove useful in the recruiting and training component of an insurgent movement. Or as paramilitaries for the counter-insurgent (i. e, government) side. Whatever the case, unless a large chunk of the regular military were to suddenly desert, and join the insurgents (not too likely), it would turn out to be a long (10-20 yr), affair.

If true, this could put a fork in Trump.

Quantum teleportation. [phys.org]

davknight comments on Aug 29, 2019:

This has been done several times in the past, in physics labs from Australia, to California, to Europe. The big problem is how to teleport Humans, and preserve their mental faculties. If I transport Spock from point A to, point B, he will have the mental state of an infant, and have to re-learn everything. His heart might not even survive the experience. In which case, the people doing the teleporting would be guilty of murder. I'd give it another hundred years, before it becomes practical.

So, do the Yankees owe me a monthly reparations check? I think people get carried away with this reparations stuff!

Frank Baum's novel "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz" was published in 1900, and seems to have been an attempt at social satire, as well as a children's book.

The Agnostic is more scientific minded, and points out that there is no proof of the existence, or non-existence of supernatural deities.

The Plutocrats, and their running dogs, would love nothing more, than to be free to plunder the World, without fear of resistance by the people they oppress.

By 1900, it was discovered that you could brainwash consumers into buying a product through an intensive advertising campaign. Promoters of totalitarian ideologies quickly discovered the same thing. They called it "propaganda". Nowadays, it's more commonly known as Psychological Warfare. It was never the goal of the Hitler Regime to "conquer the World". But even if they had, their propaganda would only have been effective until the contradictions of the "product" began to make themselves apparent. Then, the over-extended "Reich" would have toppled like a house of cards, as all empires eventually do.
