I saw that video the other day. We are watching the same things again @Uncle Gizmo!

I don't think so you guys. This is what is relevant:

it's all about the money.

Even for the international companies, they have the same principles as USA businessmen - they want a return on their investment. Like it or not, it is the way of the world.

 

[neuroman9999]

the want a return on their investment. Like it or not, it is the way of the world.

THE? you mean THEY? was that an "oops" by you, grandpa? I guess you're not that good with your own grammar, huh? LOL

 

[neuroman9999]

speaking of which you guys, I've talked to many people lately that are getting out of the medical profession because they say the greed is reaching unprecedented levels. insurance companies, hospitals, idiotic doctors. and that's no surprise to me. some of the dumbest people on Earth that I have known have been University PHDs and Doctors.

Even a decent touch-typist can make a typographical error. It didn't seem to impair your understanding of the idea being offered. I have fixed the typo just so we can move on from it.

Adam, you are again pushing the envelope. Saying that PhDs and MDs are among the dumbest people you know at least indirectly impinges on me. STOP THAT FOOLISHNESS NOW!!!! The next time you make disparaging comments like that, directed to me or to anyone else, you get a week off. The rules that Jon published included "respect for others." I am notifying you - in public - that you are violating that rule. That way, you can't come back later and say "You didn't realize..." You are warned and the specific comment has been called out. NO EXCUSES.

I cannot alter your isolation on the forum - but I checked and I absolutely CAN give you a time-out. Do you know why I respond to you at all? To let you know I am watching you.

As to your "dumb" comment above, ... Did you ever stop to think that your perception of those of us with PhDs or MDs isn't because we really are dumb but rather that we simply are not motivated in the same way that you are? Do you even dimly see the possibility that it is YOU who doesn't understand our motivations? If we seem dumb, is it because YOU don't understand US?

You talk about "having fun" on this forum. You want to play? Go find a playground and bully some small kid. If your idea of fun is to insult people, you are a warped child. And from now on, insulting behavior, even in passing and not directed at me, will earn you a time-out. If you respond to this at all, measure your response carefully. An apology will not work this time.

Either change your behavior or endure a long string of time-out sessions. I will add a further note. You can create a new account if you get tired of the time-outs imposed on you. The forum software won't stop you. But your attitude is something I can recognize quickly enough. You can put on a new name but I am a student of writing. You can't put on a new writing style and, based on past performance, you can't avoid gloating about your return. Even if you leave and then come back to haunt us in another guise, I will know you and will exorcise you as necessary.

trust me, Richard. I understand you perfectly. and all of those like you. and yeah, sure I understand your motivation. 99% of the people on Earth are doing the same thing that you and all of the other engineers and medical professionals are doing. there's nothing wrong with seeking knowledge to better yourself and to understand others on the deepest possible level. and I respect you for doing it. the KEY to staying out of your danger is whether or not you can control that crap. and from what I've seen lately of society, its doing a wonderful job of controlling it in the form of people conversing with one another and understanding one another just fine. and to bring politics into it, the right side is easing the pain and panic mode of the left side by ""keeping them busy"" so they don't kill themselves from the fear in their own brains. matter of fact, an article just came through the feed for me saying that Trump joking said ""I'm keeping the lefties busy"". LOL.

This might be pushing the envelope as well, but I'll keep it simple and won't insult anyone directly. The whole world that is coming to fruition where ""anything and everything is acceptable"", including all lifestyles, is pretty much false and to some extent, evil. Essentially, one could look at it, as the beginning of the period of false peace that was so widely mentioned and predicted thousands of years ago in scripture. But dare I say again, I'm staying the hell out of it because I know it's wrong. and I know how people feel that are engaging in atmospheres where ""everyone must get along"". No human being, if they have the truth in their heart, can get along with everyone. It's impossible. and even pretending to do it is serious deception and a lack of the truth. Now, that's not to say that human beings will not do very well is simply tolerating each other, and it's becoming evident as we speak. The key to people now not taking each other out is that they are spending minimal amounts of time with each other because of the differences. But then again, I'm sure as the future rolls on, they will be able to spend more and more time with each other and get more comfortable. and there of course are good and bad things that go along with that. It depends on how deceptive one is, and what is in their heart. And trust me, I know them all. I've met many like them, both the good and the bad.

I don't think you're evil or stupid Richard, just like I don't think that Tony is. But lest I say again, you two guys would probably change your mind in a heartbeat about me if you ever met me in person. And I've already mentioned why that would probably happen. Perhaps someday you will witness it, before you leave Earth that is.

...

Don't forget that you have already told us that your online persona doesn't match your face-to-face persona. Shall we discuss just how deceptive, duplicitous, and disingenuous that is? I will not speak for Tony but I have ZERO desire to meet someone so two-faced as you have admitted.

Your answer didn't earn you an immediate suspension but it could still come at any time.

 

[neuroman9999]

I have ZERO desire to meet someone so two-faced as you have admitted.

I am not 2 faced. I think what I have not said, and what you may have missed during all these incarnations of me is that, I have always been annoyed by the semi-political correctness that permeates on this board. and no, that's not a put down. that's just what I have witnessed and/or assume. I try not to live my life on assumptions, and I'm not doing it this time either. But a lot of what I've said during my previous tenures have, no doubt, ticked some questions askers off, as well as you guys, but I don't remember many times where it was actually meant to be evil or deceptive. Maybe a few?

I remember a slew of times I tried to have fun with people who ask questions, as well as with mods, and some of those times my words got seriously sarcastic. and of course, not everyone realized that.

I guess if this post crosses the line, I'll know it very soon.

 

[The_Doc_Man]

That is the first time I remember seeing you actually admit that your posts might have crossed a line by going to places people didn't really want to go. You usually take the viewpoint that you were just having a little fun. But Adam, the WHOLE POINT here is that your fun is not someone else's fun. Don't you see that? Can you understand that your idea of fun isn't shared universally? And yet you claim that you want people to be more caring. Try practicing what you preach for a while. Care about the feelings of others by treating with respect, not scorn. Then let us talk about your attitude.

I have always been annoyed by the semi-political correctness that permeates on this board

Boo, hoo. It isn't your board to change. The tone and style of this board were established years ago, long before I came here. I haven't suspended you yet because if you are REALLY a concerned, caring person as you purport to be then you will understand my message. If you are anything but a troll, you will see that you are the one who has to change. In a sense, I am merely waiting for an event that establishes your taxonomy - human or troll.

You need to review the Serenity Prayer. Then learn to live with what you can't change. You can change yourself. You probably can't change us.

 

[neuroman9999]

Can you understand that your idea of fun isn't shared universally?

Yep I can. and it really pisses me off a lot of times. But that's perfectly fine. That's my issue, not yours.

And yet you claim that you want people to be more caring. Try practicing what you preach for a while. Care about the feelings of others by treating with respect, not scorn. Then let us talk about your attitude.

this is something I will debate on myself forever, literally. Because this whole ""care for others no matter who they are or what they believe"", as I just said, is proliferating throughout the entire world. and even though there is nothing wrong with this, because I understand that this sick ass world that is hugely manipulative, causes people to do all sorts of WEIRD things. But, from what I've always seen, every single piece of weirdness that comes from people on Earth, as an attempt to protect themselves from the manipulative and hateful morons that are in power, is nothing more than an attempt by them to seek love and caring for themselves wherever they can find it. Why would that NOT be normal? of course it is. During Christ's time, the romans did this by killing people and expanding their empire. but that was false. just like today, people are finding comfort in many things to protect themselves from the world's hatred. from what I've seen, all of these apply:

=> they buy a pet if they're single.
=> they go to church with people who are like them.
=> they live with mom and dad.
=> they buy luxury items even though they can't afford them (this has been going on for more than a century).
=> they worship idles like movie stars, rappers, presidents, any female celebrities in sexy outfits, etc, etc....

You need to review the Serenity Prayer. Then learn to live with what you can't change. You can change yourself. You probably can't change us.

of course I can't change you guys. some of you are more lost than others. and some of you have had more tragic and depressing things happen in your lives than others. only my opinion of course. and you may not believe this either Richard, nor do you deserve to know the story (as I won't tell you), but I am currently going through what seems to be ""phases"" of what we, in the Christian circles, call a ""faith journey"". And of course I only say that terms because it was adopted years ago when it became widely known that technology was starting to diminish labor opportunities for people in the general public across the globe. Around that time, more people started to hide in churches so they could guarantee themselves survival because they didn't have the technical competence and/or nasty attitude to survive in the sick and backstabbing business world we have today. and I don't blame them one bit for doing it. the ""journey"" keyword is still widely used literally everywhere in churches, and its primary purpose is to keep political nonsense alive and hide the fact that people generally do not know what true faith really is (or rather, have not found it in their lives yet). and it just so happens so that I am NOT one of those people, and there are many people in may different churches who know me, as what I have become today and what I have to do, that do not like me because of how I present myself. they do not hate because they are caring christians, but they DO get jealous and they do feel anger sometimes toward me I'm sure. Now whether that lasts a lifetime, I would seriously doubt it. Primarily as we roll on into the future and this ""we accept everyone for who they are and everyone can get along"" attitude invades everywhere on Earth. and I know damn good and well, just like the old people in my parish, that that invasion is nothing more than a subtle introduction of the devil's deception in terms of projecting what ""is true"".

oh, and yes I know the prayer:

"" God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; the courage to change the things I can; and the wisdom to know the difference. ""

Today I don't feel like clicking "Show ignored content" so have no idea what he said, but will throw in a random comment ... Recently someone was talking about a PhD degree, my son actually, pondering how far he might go in his education. I mentioned how (while I respect any level of education, of course), I just can't even imagine what it's like to get a PhD. I know one of my brothers has been going at it part time for years - the better part of a decade, I believe. It sounds like you basically have to write a book near the end. Absolutely amazing and unlike any other level of education.
I got halfway to a Master's degree and kind of drifted off...one of these years I may pick it back up. It's one thing to get these advanced degrees while one is quite young, but I have a special admiration for anyone who has done it "after" the fact....while also managing a full-time, true career, plus a full family. Very hard.

Good job to everyone who has nailed one of these very difficult tasks!

 

[neuroman9999]

yes, you have to write a book. it's always been that way.

perfection as seen from another world

they worship idles like movie stars

If you are NOT taking Vitamin D, then maybe this article will change your mind....

Add vitamin D to bread and milk to help fight Covid, urge scientists

Widespread deficiency shows current guidance on supplements is failing

www.theguardian.com

My daughter has epilepsy and was found to be deficient in Vitamin D. That could be one piece of her puzzle. Now if we could only get some Hydroxychloroquine.

 

[Isaac]

After hearing a lot of doctors talk about vit D and corona (I heard it on Fox, the mainstream media is silent on it mostly), I've been steady taking Zinc and VitaminD each day. Hopefully it helped ward it off, at least so far I've been OK.

 

[Jon]

Wise move Isaac. I've been on the Vit D for years, just because there are so many benefits from taking it, unrelated to Covid. And the pills are tiny and so easy to swallow!

Thank you for that post, Adam.

Very timely and quite relevant.
