Robecology replies on Apr 13, 2020:

@Freedompath That's a sweeping generalization - and not true from what I've learned. China did use the "1 child per family rule" very strictly for several decades. They did - in fact - put a significant damper on their growth; better than what India is doing. Having said that; I'm always amazed by the Chinese....and Chinese Americans. I'm on a "LinkedIn" email chat account with a successful businessman there...and have seen film about their "1 child per family" policy decades ago. They are years ahead of us in Solar and wind energy. Their hydro power is far more advanced than ours. A few years ago they were opening a coal plant every week...now they're closing them almost as quickly. And I've loved Chinese food and takeout decades before I like MacDonalds. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_China https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renewable_energy_in_China

This despite having seen all of these clips, and perhaps this particular video (Actually I think I may know why: Occasionally had can appear ...

Robecology replies on Apr 11, 2020:

Dawkins does stammer, and stutter. His famous line "Science works, Bitches" is a famous T shirt theme. I guess because I think and talk a lot like Dawkins...I like him the most of the group you mentioned. I don't respect the work of Hitchens mainly because he was a smoker, who died young (aged 62). Wisdom of Agnosticism should go hand-in-hand with wisdom about common sense health. I'm sad that he lost his life....but it made me respect his opinions far less. I haven't heard much from Harris; although he did appear once on Bill Maher....and I think you know Bill is a TV producer/comedian who made the movie "#Religulous.

@JayOleck38 These are the curious, the "pretend-to-be" loyal who are looking for an argument. If you have spare time (and who doesn't) take on the troll. Share this video with them, at least. If they get hostile and disrespectful...they're being like rebellious kids who know you're right....they just hate that you're showing them the truth. If they continue and get personal...you block and report them (that also gets them kicksd off FB). Good luck...I think it's the best way to "reach" them and persuade them.

Bill's not afraid to side with Trump on the rare occasions that he makes sense. His point was that there's too many viruses still coming from China...and despite the alleged "racism" of calling it a 'Cheese virus" - most - if not all - viruses were named based on where they came from. China needs - for the sake of humanity's survival - to clean up their act. ....and BTW; many - if not all - of his shows and interviews are still on Youtube. Pick a famous person, type his/her name, then Bill Maher, then video in your search tool...(google?) and you'll see what I mean

If I were the creator of the 36 questions I'd appreciate the feedback as to which are "great" and which some consider not so great. I think that if it weren't "appreciated" by the OP she would have told me so. I don't know why people have to keep debating with me because I said it's "not such a great question"!

@Freespirit64 and @BudFrank. I watched a film by Jacques Costeau; who sat and asked Fidel Castro many years ago, why he felt communism was best. Fidel's answer stuck with me to this day; "The people are not "disciplined"... That's the problem with dealing with a nation that has a communist leadership...they don't trust "the people". They treat them like children. But the facts are clear. Cuba might have a vaccine for both Lung cancer and the COVID virus. China is years ahead of us in alternative energy development. China spends one tenth of what we do on the military-industrial thing. (see the chart, below). A few years ago, China was opening a coal power plant every week. Now they've got 2x the wind generators, 4x the Solar panels, and 6x the hydropower we have....and they're closing those coal power plants. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renewable_energy_in_China They're not the "Russian" style of communism; but they are very restrictive with even what Internet they can receive . I chat regularly with a Chinese businessman on LinkedIn. The Chinese communists get things done...the Russian communists (allegedly they're capitalists....but we know better) get nothing done...and are throwing a lot of their money in to the same things we and the Saudi's are...Fossil fuels. Have you heard of Jack Ma? He's founder of Alibaba - an up and coming Amazon competitor is a serious self-made Chinese billionaire...follow and get to know him.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Ma The Chinese may twist the truth and treat their people "like children" but they get things done far better than we do. Our own government is getting swallowed up with greedy fossil fuel/ pharmaceutical/military-industrial/insurance based businesses; that will keep Sanders out and keep Trump and his type in....and they will milk us Americans dry. Oh...and guess who does...and doesn't....have universal health care? But that's another issue.

Anyone else really like spicy food? For me I like it hot, but not so hot that I choke on whatever I'm attempting to eat. If it makes me sweat I'm happy. Jalapenos, Habaneros, Scorpion peppers and even Ghost peppers are in my wheelhouse. The Reapers I'll leave to the experts.

Robecology replies on Apr 5, 2020:

Yes and no. I read years ago that "spicy" originated in hotter regions of the world where covering up the smell and taste of rotten meat was important....and that turned me off to enjoying them. Having said that; I do enjoy the mild salsas, the "Green" salsas, and a pinch of white pepper now and then. What I don't get is those who apparently relish in the sado-masochistic hottest-is-best strategy. Been there, done that. Boring...painful...and likely to cause ulcers.

As a teacher - it was always a given - when a Chinese-American kid checked in - they went to the top of the class. Smart, hard working...industrious...and...ahead of the rest of the world. Their energy policies used to be a new coal plant every week a few years ago. Now they’re closing one a week.... and they’ve already exceeded us in Solar, wind energy and EV cars. Doubled US output already. Google “Alternative Energy in China”...they’re years ahead of us. The facts are out there...If you’re not sure - check. Don’t fall behind the curve...

@glennlab and @AtheistInNC You guys are stuck back in the 20th century. Purchase prices for the Y and 3 (formerly the E) are now competitively priced in the $30 to $40K range. There's now thousands of Superchargers around the world - and growing by at least 1 per week. https://supercharge.info/map you save $$ and time by charging at home, at night, while you're sleeping. You avoid the hassles, smells, and dangers of gas stations. The EPA fuel cost estimates are still - even with gas prices dropping - at 80-90 MPG cost equivalents - and that's just costs. I care about the future of dumping pounds of CO2 per mile travelled in gas burners...you guys don't. So hold on to your gas burners...and support the FFC.

@kasmian #1; The Chinese are on it; https://www.nationalreview.com/2020/03/the-chinese-wild-animal-industry-and-wet-markets-must-go/ The Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress, in effect the executive committee of the Chinese Communist Party, in late February issued an edict banning the country’s “wet markets,” including those in Wuhan, the source of the current COVID-19 outbreak. The statement notes that “it is necessary to strengthen market supervision, resolutely ban and severely crack down on illegal wildlife markets and trade, and control major public health risks from the source.” The Straits Times of Singapore has reported that eight laws have been passed in the last week. We have no details on the contents of the legislation. It’s too soon to know, though, whether we have been down this road before. #2. Caveat Emptor? #3. Trump knew patient #1.
