Trump was talking about chlorine dioxide and he was right. Inhibition of the Binding of Variants of SARS-CoV-2 Coronavirus Spike Protein to a Human Receptor by Chlorine Dioxide https://www.remedypublications.com/open-access/inhibition-of-the-binding-of-variants-of-sars-cov-2-coronavirus-spike-7364.pdf "These findings show that chlorine dioxide aqueous solution can inactivate the binding of the variant spike proteins to the human ACE2 receptor protein, indicating that this strategy may be useful in blocking the transmission of variant SARS-CoV-2 viruses." Protective effect of low-concentration chlorine dioxide gas against influenza A virus infection https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18089729/ Evaluation of the antiviral activity of chlorine dioxide and sodium hypochlorite against feline calicivirus, human influenza virus, measles virus, canine distemper virus, human herpesvirus, human adenovirus, canine adenovirus and canine parvovirus https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20616431/

Russell Brand criminally charged with rape...

And "do" it does indeed. Fortunately, the voices of reason are here, keep it up. -

If the establishment wants you in, you're in, and if the establishment wants you out, you're out. Guilt is not the primary metric in these issues. Do the establishment's bidding and enjoy a life of impunity like Jimmy Saville. Speak against the establishment and it will endeavour to destroy you. -
Australian Teen Dies in Koh Samui Motorbike Collision
rattlesnake replied to webfact's topic in Koh Samui News
This needs to be repeated over and over. Lack of awareness is the core issue and an impact even at very low speed can destroy your life. -

I definitely agree with you on the substance, I sometimes am shocked by the lack of compassion/awareness displayed on this forum. However, when a person dies in a motorbike accident and was not wearing a helmet, I believe it is perfectly valid to point it out and stress just how utterly stupid it is to do that… because it is, and who knows, it might encourage people to change their habits and potentially save their lives. -

Agree, people just don't realise what will happen to their head in case of an impact, even at low speed. -

Proper motorcycle training + defensive driving + certified full-face helmet = small chance of having a serious accident, even in Thailand. -
I probably should have paid the money.

I see what you did there -

rattlesnake replied to Packer's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Good points. Personally, I have never been in this situation of having to foot the bill without having consented to it beforehand. Contrary to what I have often read on this forum, freeloading is not, in my experience, something Thais will typically do and they will more often have a tendency to be "greng jai", i.e. feel embarrassed/awkward in the situation the OP described. But this woman's attitude definitely was out of order and I understand where the OP is coming from (though I have long stopped being confrontational in Thailand myself – In my opinion, there are more effective ways to deal with such situations privately, with no loss of face involved for anyone). -

Problems with submitting Tax Return
rattlesnake replied to ericbj's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
It's pretty clear, isn't it? The Thai authorities are telling you to drop it and keep your money. Of course, if you keep insisting on paying, eventually you will find someone who will be willing to take your money from you, but why do such a thing?- 25 replies

You're so hi-so, I'm jealous

Yes, slight correction to my post: they also do it with foreigners who speak Thai, so it doesn't necessarily indicate one doesn't speak Thai well.
-
It's just a habit they have with non-Thai speakers and with children, there isn't any explanation other than that, at least not to my knowledge. Don't overthink it :)

It's to teach us how to say it, they do it with kids too.
