If anything, the evidence is that it isn't true, see https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal...
Any apparent causality of age of acquisition seems to be a proxy of hours of exposure. It may well be that it is easier for young people to rack up a lot of exposure to a second language, but not much evidence that age plays much of a factor for people of different ages who had the same degree of exposure.

“There’s no end in sight. Electronic photography will soon be superior to anything we have now. The first advance will be the exploration of existing negatives. I believe the electronic process will enhance them. I could get superior prints from my negatives using electronics.
“Then the time will come when you will be able to make the entire photograph electronically. With the extremely high resolution and enormous control you can get from electronics, the results will be fantastic. I wish I were young again!”
I can understand the inverse, so that you don’t have similar numbers nearby (as in RingGo).
To have it show up in the eye repeatedly may simply indicate it’s travelled back down the nerve.

- The meeting took place on the island of Kosrae in Micronesia.
- Recently, the president of Micronesia wrote a letter denouncing Chinese interference and recommending supporting Taiwan instead.
- Losing control of Micronesia would weaken US supply routes in Asia and force a bottleneck in supporting bases in countries like South Korea and Japan.
- The Chinese officials tried deflecting the conversation away from the recent anti-China letter.
- Local residents said China had been bribing politicians and threatening leaders who didn't cooperate.
- Other countries like Fiji and the Solomon Islands have been shifting towards China, making Micronesia's alignment more important for the US.
- The vlogger decided to share what he witnessed with Micronesian government contacts, though the outcome of that was unclear.
- The video argues that a "cold war" is happening in the Pacific as spheres of influence are reshaped.
- Micronesia's strategic location and political alignment will impact stability in the region.

The form seems to be the same form I filled in months before. I’ve not heard back in the 7 days since.
