Speaking of Trump, some say every other word out of his mouth was a lie, but it seems that it was one of several lives according to the following story: https://www.cnn.com/2021/01/16/politics/fact-check-dale-top-15-donald-trump-lies/index.html...

Dr. Michael P. Masters is a professor of biological anthropology at Montana Tech in Butte, Montana. He received a Ph.D. in Anthropology from The Ohio State University in 2009, where he specialized in hominin evolutionary anatomy, archaeology, and...

Yup. I think that really needs clarification. There is definitely pseudoscience going on, but what exactly they are referring to needs to be identified before it can be validated. One study found that the number of hospitalizations was about...

I'm not so sure about all that. There's nothing wrong with earning a living doing what you do, regardless of whether or not you happen to be famous, and celebrities often advocate not simply for themselves, but for their fans and the...

Yup. It's wild how little folks here understand how things like that really work, even though we depend upon it - and as citizens in fact own it for the most part.

Mr Greenewald Jr. has done great job and as with any documents -books keep an open mind.

Interesting. A quick look at some of the articles about Van Morrison's views on the COVID-19 pandemic doesn't look like denial, as in he doesn't believe the SARS-CoV-2 virus is real. He ( and Clapton ) appear to be in the anti-lockdown camp (...

Speaking of movie soundtracks... remember when they were good? This one literally changed the course of my life, at least as far as music tastes go: Got me into Peter Gabriel, Depeche Mode, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and the Replacements... all some...

Totally hear and agree with you. Not all companies approach this stuff the same way. I’m talking about projects that I’m aware of and tangentially involved with, that I can’t discuss here.

I would love to hear your perspectives sometime ( off the record ). BTW, my Dad was the head geologist for a number of years at Pan Canadian. They didn't drill a well anywhere in North America unless it went past him first, and he showed me what...

What I'm saying is that most (smart) organizations recognized that we couldn't count on Keystone being there to build a business strategy on - so other transportation strategies were planned. Don't get me wrong, Keystone would be a net positive...

Thanks for that. Makes sense to me. Yes, I've heard that all before, and looked into it, and like I say, only about 7% has been reclaimed, and calling it a natural oil spill is dismissive of the scale of devastation that isn't natural. When only...

Into the mystic is one of my favourite songs ever. Oddly enough, I discovered Van Morrison by loving the 80's movie 'Dream a Little Dream' as a kid. Too bad he's a covid denier. It's certainly made me think twice about him.

Interesting perspective, but I'm too far out of that loop to know what you mean. What it seems like you're saying is that TMX ( presumably an acronym for the trans mountain pipeline expansion ) through BC is a more effective strategy anyway...

The funny thing is that the strategists and executives in every mid-to large size oil company up here has known that Keystone was dead or too late for years. It literally no longer is part of most strategies. Even if it comes on-line, it will be...

A Comment On The COVID Conspiracy - Which one was that again? There have been so many conspiracy theories that I've lost count. The forum here has pages and pages of them. But there have been some themes in the "scamdemic" or "plandemic" or...

I'd never even heard of Cooper ( except perhaps peripherally ) until @Decker mentioned him on a thread, which led me to an old article he ( Don ) had written. I think Don would be happier if nobody ever mention Copper's name again ( Don is very...

I binged on Bill's shows one year when I was on a 3rd shift. The article mentioned the mystery of why his book was popular among prisoners. It is no mystery: Bill believed the system was holding Black-Americans down in a divide-and-conquer...

You know, thinking over this video, I'm not confident it's legit. If this researcher had actually established contact with bigfoot in writing, why, in the entire 39 minutes, is there only a single 1-second flash of a blackboard with some...

That's already been done, and approved. So one more time around the block. Regardless of whether or not the environmental risks will be "examined", I can pretty much guarantee that there will be insufficient environmental restoration rules in...

Biden also wants to kill a major energy project between US and Canada on his first day in office. Maybe it's a good idea. Maybe it's not. As for the lockdown strategy, Sweden is presently doing a turn-around on their open-for-business approach...

This thread is inspired by my discovery of Darwin's classic text The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals, referenced in a volume of papers available online entitled Habitus in Habitat I : Emotion and Motion, edited by Sabine Flach...

Ontario Premier ignores harms of lockdown while imposing severe COVID measures "Ontario Premier Doug Ford said a lot of theatrical things on Tuesday as he further locked down the more than 14 million people in his province. But instead of...

Long Haulers - The Problem of ‘Long Haul’ COVID "The common thread through these comments was a basic one. Each of the patients had already been infected with COVID-19 and presumably had recovered, yet each was still dealing with symptoms of...

I met Dr. Leon Davidson a couple of times or so in the 1960s. He was a close friend of Jim Moseley's, and I accompanied Jim on a couple of visits to Dr. D. So I found this article both unexpected and intriguing: https://i95rock.com/227948/
