I liked some posters here a lot more when they talked about bicycles ....
On another hand, ThreeAlarmer shows that s/he actually has stuff to say when not trolling.
I like surprises as long as they are removed a bit by the screen .... in real life, not so much.
If I type the word "politics " here, will this thus be a "political post"?
Anyway ..... I don't care if people make "buzzwords" out of actual legitimate terms in order to try to stifle debate .... smart people can simply not fall into the trap, just like we can go into bicycle stores and not leave with new bikes, no matter what the evil salesperson wants.
And you know what? The science of thermometers was pretty advanced back when they were first invented, even .... seeing as water boils at a fairly consistent temp, at given ambient air pressures, and yes, people 100 years ago could read thermometers and write down numbers.
Shocking, how little we have progressed.
