The US has 61,000 cases per million people. Australia has 1100 cases per million people. In other words: Australia has 0.18% of the number of cases that the US has. If that changes, people's attitude will change too. |

I think that a lot of people were disappointed that locking down and reducing contact did not eliminate the virus completely, but I don't think that any of the authorities suggested that it would. I thought that they had explained that it would keep the spread down to a level that our health care system could handle. From what I have been hearing lately, there are places where the system has been overwhelmed. |

Your library probably has e-books you can borrow. you don't need a special e-reader if you already have a desktop computer with an internet browser. i can read e-books fine that ways and bump up the font size all i want. what i do not like about reading books on a desktop though is that you are stuck for that position for reading and while i can shift about it still ends up being uncomfortable. when i'm reading a regular book i move around from side to side or lay flat on my back. songbird |

Trump's one of the idiots. Especially if you have a high percentage of idiots in your population (73 million), you want a president who sets the right example, instead of adding to the stupidity. |

This post was made about food. Wasn't me who veered. Many others took this to nasty land. Soon it will all be a moot point as I highly doubt I'll put a news server on my new computer. And the day I take this one offline will be soon. |

I know what a pain in the butt it can be too set up a new computer, especially when you have to find old passwords. I replaced my laptop last month and it took a few days to get things up and running properly. I am glad that I didn't wait until an old one died. |
