Does anyone remember the Emergency Alert System going off at any time during 9/11? I was near DC that morning and 30 miles from the crash in PA later that morning... Nothing.

Where are the billions he raised? Did he keep them? ‘Cause the Island didn’t see any of it.

“Google does something similar with the Pixel.”

It was the parting of the hair to one side as Clark and another at Superman that really threw me off.

Which logical fallacy is it if you turn around the argument and don’t defend your own assertion but instead just point to others as being wrong? Asking for a friend. ;-)

Sheesh! Where were you when I did my DrPH dissertation? (Epidemiological and Geostatistical Methods to Understand the Epidemic of Homicides in Baltimore City)
