Yea CNN is trash, but if you’re worried about liberal bias, the article is referencing a Fox News poll.

Incorrect go spec something on new egg and you’ll get a very similar number.

I am indeed impressed but not at all surprised considering what we used to get to the moon!

Perhaps if you take them to a dump. The wonderful people at my daughter’s day care are absolutely invested in their development and spend 6 uninterrupted hours per day with them focused exclusively on that. It’s stupid expensive though.

The fact he only supports women staying at home should tell you everything you need to know about the caliber person you’re dealing with.

What if the husband wants to stay home and raise the kids?

Also no, women (or men) who stay home don’t “know best” by default. That knowledge is earned and requires intent.

Can you please elaborate?

I just listened to the ATC recording from immediately before the collision. ATC instructs the helicopter to pass behind the CRJ. I’m fairly certain a few minutes before that, ATC instructed the helicopter to maintain visual separation, which is common. They typically ask, “do you have the aircraft in sight” and if you respond in the affirmative they rely on you to maintain safe distance.

I should mention that in the recording you can only hear one side of the conversation, so I don’t know whether or not the helicopter said whether or not they had visual contact with the plane they collided with.

Either way it doesn’t seem to be the fault of ATC. Of course we’ll know more as additional information becomes available.

I don’t disagree with most of what you said, and I wont say big government and more regulation is the answer, but I’m super skeptical that small government would yield better results as it relates to public health. Is your point that government, big or small, won’t solve the problems we’re facing, so why waste the money? If so, that seems like a defeatist attitude, which also doesn’t jive with me.

Many of the regulations in place today absolutely have a net positive impact on public health. Even many regs enforced by the FDA. Anyway, I’m just wondering what your solution is if big govt is the problem. Thanks.

What you’re saying is possible but understand that things will shift and settle in the 90 years since she went down. Most plane wrecks I’ve seen photos of show mangled fuselages, snapped off wings, tail sections, etc.

They blur people from view with street view so it isn’t quite the same.

Seems really disingenuous to compare to corridor crew’s video which had to film real actors for each scene they want to create.
