Well, if that’s “the key point”, then we should all get up on high horses and enjoy blaming everyone who ever gets angry at the loss of anything that was good, or useful, or valuable. After all, any one thing wasn’t everything, and therefore it wasn’t diverse. It was just itself. It was just

I agree 100%. And I'm sorry if I sound like I'm on some kind of high horse. One of the flaws of digital media is the lack of overtones and context that would otherwise accompany meatspace discussion. I pepper my opinions with self-deprecating commentary, which is always inadequate. Shubik is no

Sushi lovers - I've never been able to develop (nor really understand) the eating of fish/seafood. I grew up completely landlocked in the Rocky Mountains where it was at the very least a significant excursion to get to a *small* lake where there *might be* a few trout stocked.  The process of rem

I probably missed it, but: Where can you find reasonably effective masks of the sort described? Size appears to be an issue for me as well. I bought a good multilayer, filter pocket mask. It fits tightly and has a nose wire. But it is too small from nose to chin. One size does not fit all. I got a
