@sassygirl3869 f you value that isolated, back-to-nature view, you'll vote. I'm glad you were honest enough to admit you didn't - but please remember; it's your best voice to support continuing "the life" in the lower image. Right now the EPA is being stripped of provisions that took years to develop. The greedy pro-Republican/pro-rape-the-environment/anti-conservationists need to be voted out of office. Please - participate in future voting.

Robecology comments on Nov 6, 2019:

I think all relationships start with "fooling around"...a light-hearted flirtation here and there...not a bad thing. The lyrics give away a "bad boy" who "loved them then left them alone""....due to sloppy match-ups...no doubt...but it was a catchy tune... Fooled Around and Fell in Love Elvin Bishop I must have been through about a million girls I'd love 'em and I'd leave 'em alone I didn't care how much they cried, no sir Their tears left me cold as a stone But then I fooled around and fell in love I fooled around and fell in love I fooled around and fell in love I fooled around and fell in love It used to be when I'd see a girl that I liked I'd get out my book and write down her name But when the grass got a little greener on the other side I'd just tear out that page But then I fooled around and fell in love I fooled around and fell in love Since I met you baby I fooled around and fell in love I fooled around and fell in love Free, on my own that's the way I used to be But since I met you baby love's got a hold on me Ooh it's got a hold on me now, hey I can't let go of you baby I can't stop lovin' you now, hey 'Cause I fooled around, fooled around, fooled around Fooled around, fooled around, fooled around, fell in love Fooled around, fooled around, yes I did Fooled around, fooled around, fooled around, I fell in love Fooled around, fooled around, fooled around, fell in love

I noticed that. I jumped in ($20K) when it was in the low 200's..so my worth is now about $30K. I suspect it will continue to rise. Amazon was in the low 200's 5 years ago. Now they're up to $1700. I'd jump in soon...in a few years you can sell the stock and buy a Tesla with the profits.

I don't think that sugar serves any nutrient effect on any plants. if anything, you'll encourage ants and other insect pests. If you want healthier plants try "miracle-grow" or any good strong fertilizer... Plants make their own "sugars" and will do so more easily of they're provided with an abundance of nitrogen, Potassium, and Phosphorous...(notice; all minerals....no organic molecules in them) - the famous "threesome" in all good fertilizers - when you see those numbers on any fertilizer bag; that's the percentages of these minerals that are in the fertilizers.

Did you ever make a list...then leave it home....but you recalled well what was on the list? It's called making a neural pathway. Just like if you run through a tall grass field once, you barely notice a path. If you run through it twice, the path is much clearer? That's how our brain works. It really helps to "take notes" or write stuff down...or even note it on your "phone" (on the calendar, or in "notes") even if you leave the list! You've just doubled your memory time and detail by doing so. (You can probably tell I'm a retired teacher).

I have a random physics question for science types here, would be curious to hear some thoughts.

Robecology comments on Oct 31, 2019:

Remember; that rod is made of atoms of metal. There's lots of space between the atoms of that rod; in fact even the densest substances known to us still is mostly "space"....so you can bet that the whole length....even a modest length - say a few meters long - would not move, or roll, or rotate together...if the force were applied at one end. That's what torque measures...rotational force. If you had a really long (say, hundreds of meters) metal rod with the same diameter...I'm willing to bet that one end would go 360º while the other will not move for a few seconds...maybe even longer?

The **FFC** the Fossil fuel consortium...is out to gain profits and ignore the mental and physical health of our nation. We won't have it. Yes...we want democratic Socialism. Socialized medicine, socialized education. What we want is medicare for all...like most civilized nations.- and no....it won't cost us more; there will be no insurance charges...only a simple higher tax....which will mean much lower costs for all of us...in a "socialist" healthy society. And higher education - free - so we can regain our status in the world as the leader in education. In the 1950's we were #1 (taxes on the wealthiest 90%). Now we're 32nd. The **FFC.**....is many times bigger than** BT.**..big tobacco. I bet you know someone who died, far too early - mainly because they were a "smoker". I bet you have grandchildren that will be sad that you posted this naive commentary about Venezuela. The toxicity of fossil fuels may not be that obvious.....but it will eventually lead us to irreversible, runaway global warming. Your grandchildren will explain it to you some day. BT lied their way through decades of profits. They lied to the smokers you and I knew that died prematurely. Click on the ad images below...I remember them. I bet you do too. They were all lies.

Good Thursday morning! Are you a snacker?

Robecology comments on Oct 24, 2019:

Ideally; fruit and nuts. Realistically; a rare chococate chunk indulgence; and I keep my "muscle brownies" on hand (regular brownie recipe, plus protein powder and oatmeal - adds fiber and protein).. Almost never; commercial cakes, cookies and candies. A recent drink/snack I indulge in...V8's "smoothies"...Banana strawberry, and Banana coconut.

I’m wondering if anyone here has been successful making their own yogurt?

Robecology comments on Oct 24, 2019:

Been there, done that.... Too much work for the effort. I buy the Greek non-fat yogurt...and do a variety of things with it... Experiment...try it in cakes and cookies. Try it with fruit. Try it with coffee. Try it with eggs. When a recipe calls for sour cream or Ricotta...greek yogurt's a decent substitute.

Something that bothers me is why Trump is digging up dirt on Biden over the 2016 election for ...

There's an answer; it's a protective mental mechanism that happens to any organism when they're "overcrowded". I read this in my Senior year in HS...and it helped set my career direction (Ecology and Demography). To sum it up; The more crowded it gets, the more psychotic we - or any social animal - becomes. Crowding causes wars, greed, territoriality, child-neglect, Asexual behavior...you name the social ill...this explains it. Oh...and we're growing at 158 more births, than deaths, per minute. http://www.poodwaddle.com/worldclock/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1501789/pdf/califmed00143-0080.pdf Here's a video to help you understand the "religulous" and the "Trumpster"... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rW9R6jgE7SQ

Wow...a complicated issue. I see why Trump wants to get the trade talks up and going with China, again. They hold a heavy hand over many companies that deal with them...according to the article. Thanks for this. It's a tedious read....but worth it.

They can dish it out, but they can't take it

Hate Gowdy.

Is there a way to block all the boob and butt photos in my recent photos section?

Robecology comments on Oct 23, 2019:

You probably checked off that you liked the "classy sexy" strand or group. Simply "leave" the group...and the pics won't appear.

This cracked me up.

LOL! I have not one, but two barometers...that probably no longer work...but I got them as gifts and they're still on display....I think I can find one pic....nope...but it's the older dial, round ones..two of them...still on my wall....still useless...

Excellent video. Hard to believe that even our heart went through a slow, gradual evolution!

She's amazing!

I made a big batch of home-cultured Yogurt yesterday using a heating pad in my oven.

Robecology comments on Oct 23, 2019:

I tried that - once. Far too much work and too much to clean up. I just buy a quart container of Fat-free greek Yogurt every once in a while...use it up...buy a new one.
