I know something about CARPETBAGGERS, though....

The study of statistics at the university level, as you know... Is actually one of the more challenging courses, if the course is rigorous. BUT, seems to me...that.... I vividly recall a statement of yours in which you opined that you were "poor" in Math. I do not say that you are poor in Math. I would say that you must be quite good in Math. I am just repeating one of your statements, stated in the Past. STATISTICS is a very difficult one-year course at uni. It is TOUGH, and many fail this class, or do poorly. Yet, for science, STATISTICS is crucial. And, for sure, even some smart scientists ask for collaboration from colleagues who are true experts in stats to do the stats-work when they publish a paper. Just saying.....

I can only presume that you have forgotten the debate about what parts of Boeing Aircraft could be legally produced in China. Anyway, back in the day, I do recall the discussion. For example....WINGS.... Do I need to look this up for you...on the internet? This was some time ago...and I recall the debate...pretty well. IF I am mistaken, then I do apologize to you, and all on TV.

According to Western Folk Myth, the "carpenter" always represents Jesus Christ.... Right?

Which?

Ha....! First, please present all the facts....before....declaring... QED

GREAT....!!!!! We should have NEVER allowed AirBus or Boeing to set up production facilities in COMMIE CHINA....NO WAY, Jose....!!! This was the very STUPIDEST move of the past 4 decades. Let them, the ChiComs, import airlines from the SovietUnion, now Russia. The Russians, anyway, have the very best tech...as the ChiComs do know. What a DISASTER.....!!!!!!!!!!! It's almost as if the West were, has been, trying to nurture Authoritarian Regimes in East Asia.... What a complete JOKE and Disaster. DECOUPLE....NOW! DEMOCRACY....NOW.....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OK, John. I will do my best.

Yes. I have. Yes. I am a prig. Somewhat of a prig, but not entirely a prig.

You often ask for "pics". However, kindly understand that, sometimes, uploading sensitive information is just not wise. I do so when I can. But, I cannot do so...all the time.

Dear Folks, I love Thailand. I have told many people back in the home country how much I love Thailand. They, ask me: What is Thailand REALLY like, “to live there”? I usually explain that I am having just too much fun in Thailand, and I can’t be bothered to explain my times in Thailand. But, if they are willing, then I suggest that they read a nice little book written by C. Dodgson. I send them this link: https://www.gutenberg.org/files/12/12-h/12-h.htm https://www.gutenberg.org/files/12/12-h/12-h.htm And then, I show them this image: Everything about life in Thailand is just so…. FANTASTICAL…..really. And, those of you who have lived in Thailand probably know what I mean: And, my caution to my friends who plan to move to Thailand is this: Here in Thailand, things are not what they appear, and not what they seem. Anyway, this is what I tell my friends.. I tell them to just read the book. Read the book, and then they will know all there is to know…. About Thailand. Best regards, Hope this is helpful to some… Gamma Note: There is no good music here, but only based on my uninformed opinion. When coming to Thailand, bring your own music, such as this one…maybe…. Because, don’t expect to find anything like WOODSTOCK in Thailand…baby….!!! Note2: And, by the way, please steer clear of foreigners, if you know what is good for you. Note3: I will be surprised if, during your life in Thailand, you do not meet Tweedledum and Tweedledee, occasionally….

Yes. I find myself in Thailand, today.

Although I am not TRANS... STILL, I prefer to be searched by females. Always have....

Well, if it does not matter, as you say...then.... Why do you go to the bother to wash off the blackness?

Yes, but... A BLACK BODY will radiate heat much faster than a WHITE BODY... So, even your hypothesis is a bit confusing to me. If they wanted to conserve heat inside their house, one would have thought they might have chosen WHITE as a better color than JET BLACK.... Makes no sense to me....actually....

Dear Folks, Having just watched someone put up a new roof, somewhere in Thailand: a. The homeowner chose BLACK…JET BLACK for the exterior covering of a corrugated roof for a very large sun awning. I mean…a HUGE awning connected to his house. b. Why choose BLACK, JET BLACK? c. Does he think this color might be “COOL”? d. I do agree that the STONES are COOL, and the Tune is VERY COOL. e. But, to paint a roof black in Thailand…Is this cool? Or, is this idiocy? What are the construction workers thinking, too? Are they not aware of the radiation absorption PROPERTIES of a… BLACK BODY IN SPACE, for example? When we talk about BLACK BODIES, and BLACK BODY RADIATION, I guess you all know what I am talking about. But, do the workers here, who are working on this big project, understand? Have they not even studied Year One Astronomy at MIT, for example? All MIT courses are available on the net, and for free. Any excuses for not having watched the Physics courses on MIT's great website, before putting up a black roof? This just boggles my mind. AND...What about the HEAT-ISLAND Effect, around the black roof? What about THAT???? Ignorance is Bliss, as they say…until..it becomes the …. HOT SEASON, in Thailand. Best regards, Gamma

This seems strange to me. What did he have to be depressed about? Interestingly, some antidepressant drugs have been linked to increased risk of suicide. I would never use those kinds of meds. They change the brain chemistry in unforeseen and poorly understood ways. Also, he seemed like such a nice guy. Always smiling.

Dear Folks, I just came across this important study relating to the potential benefits due to use of parachutes when facing gravitational challenges. For example, here is just one excerpt from this important study: Well, I will post the link to the full article showing the results and conclusions of this study here: https://www.bmj.com/content/327/7429/1459 Notice, please, that it is this same researcher, JILL PELL who was the lead author for the recent BRISK WALKING study in Glasgow. And, as you can see, formerly she did this landmark study on the benefits of PARACHUTE use to mitigate gravitational challenge. I commend her. What do you think? Are her "studies" pivotal and groundbreaking? Just wondering. Gamma

Do you have a link to this comment? Seems written by an AI. And, I have found that it's wise to always question AI output. The fact that exercise can lead to fewer cardiac events, and fewer cardiac anomalies has been long known. However, or one single study to say, with such exactitude, how the population will be affected is probably a stretch. It would have been better to report the results in more scientific terms. For example, 43 percent. How was this number calculated and what is the confidence level and error range, just to mention a few things. It would be good to have a link to this study, rather than just read a summary in some magazine written by someone who is not familiar with science. If some reported result from some study might sound interesting, then it is important to go to the source article, BMJ in this case, And then actually read what the authors are reporting. Meanwhile, as I have already stated, and has been stated throughout the years, that brisk walking, or even just walking at a moderate pace, can improve heart health. This study seems to try to quantify this. But, the data is self-reported. And, a good idea to actually read the study, oneself.

This is the meaning of Confirmation Bias. Also, the dynamic driving Cognitive Dissonance. In other words, these old guys are maintaining views which support their decision to move to Asia, and to remain in Asia for many decades.. Their beliefs are not based on unbiased evaluation of the state of their home country. THIS is the nature of Confirmation Bias. This is also the dynamic behind Cognitive Dissonance.

Thanks. I will try this strategy.

Spare the Rod. Spoil the Child.

I meant... The fact that expats have convinced themselves that the US is going downhill, in a comment of another. The commenter's remark. Is this not confirmation bias? But, in fact, he is wrong. This is not bias. This is reality.

Dumb Nerd in Black Glasses has water dumped on him. Becomes violent. Why? Don't go walking at night if you don't wanna get wet. What was he thinking? He has MILK BOTTLES for spectacles. How can the guy even see where he's going? Not a fun-loving individual, maybe...

Is this not a good example of confirmation bias?
