Yep, just like those scientists hired by Exxon in the '80s predicted precicely where we would be at today if we jammed our thumbs up our a** and ignored carbon emissions for 30 years. And lo! Now that we're removing our collective thumbs, the scientists were right!It's definitely trending in that direction. And remember, boys and girls, <s>global cooling</s> <s>global warming</s> climate change is built on models just like those. TTFN.
Another day along the road for our Test Drive for Socialism. You folks enjoying this yet? I mean, other than the lefties who are "living the dream" with a command economy, restrictions on our personal liberties and Constitutional rights, and taking orders from DNC toadies all throughout the MSM landscape. Enjoy it while it lasts, comrades. And my sincere apologies to anyone who was offended by my "don't you folks have jobs?" comment. Of course, my personal stalker (who is getting creepier and creepier by the day - confirming my original suspicions BTW) chimed in ...
Wow, that came as a total surprise. Way too much time on your hands, my malleable-as-Play-Doh friend. I see you lapsed into another three-section screed earlier, so it looks like you chose to ignore my "quality over quantity" advice. For what it's worth, I skipped the "odyssey" this time, so your New Poster Smell (and yeah, 15 years reading before, not creepy at all … ) is apparently wearing off. I guess I'm relieved that it's just not me that's pushing your buttons.
Anyway, I guess this is the guy who 'Watcher suspected of being "me", and while I've told you that's not the case - and anyone who wants to check with the USCHO mods, go for it - I did like the way s/he wrapped up on the following conclusions fo a pair of their posts:
Maybe you and my stalker Net can get together and hash this all out for us/me?
The second one there is a little "hot" for me, but the underlying point does take us back to where the discussion was a few weeks ago on our original D-1 thread. At some point, the "cure" is going to become more costly than the disease. I'm kind of OK to a degree with what we're doing now, but this has to end. The models have scared the bejeezus out of ordinary folks, and now the models are coming under scrutiny when millions of forecasted deaths, and then hundreds of thousands, are now being revised to tens of thousands. AND the death count, per Dr. Birx yesterday, is being "liberally" counted. Which likely means many deaths being counted as being FROM COVID-19 are simply deaths from other causes by people WITH COVID-19.
All lives are to be valued … but who will be counting the many additional deaths from depression, substance abuse recidivism, and poverty directly related to unemployment? Especially if IHME models - the basis upon which we have this shutdown - are shown to have been alarmingly overstated?

So in the case of Italy and Spain, the fault is at the national level, but in the US, the fault is solely with NYC? Interesting spin, there...
When the same "Science" you worship makes it routinely possible for so-called "clumps of cells" to be born AND then live pretty much normal human lives after the midway mark of a human pregnancy, then how is it that so many (not all BTW)on the Left just shrug at the idea of well over a half-million of these future humans not getting to live their lives (like you and me), out of no fault of their own?

As for the lengths of my posts, I just feel it's really important to push back on every single inaccurate point or right wing trope you guys throw out there. Otherwise, the individuals posting that garbage become more emboldened. I mean, look at our limited back and forth. I pushed back on all of you ridiculousness and now you won't respond directly to me. 
Just curious but do any of the knuckledraggers posting out here have any background in science or medicine? Because if I'm going to believe that scientists and their data are wrong, it would be nice to know the basis for that conclusion is something other than "I dun read it on da internet".
Lots of experts on epidemiology out here, most of which don't sound like they have the ability to tie their shoes without assistance.
