Re: COVID is ALL BUT OVER.
Exactly the inner-city public school response that's expected. For midwits like you, WW2 started on Sep. 1, 1939 for no reason, and with no background. Treaty of Versailles, Weimar Germany, devaluation of currency, atrocities in Poland and Sudetenland. Did you learn about these crucial historical e...

Re: "Escape From The North" job ad
Lots of things. That’s why few stay, and even fewer go in the first place. That seems to be an impossibility. If you look at the population distribution of our country, it should make perfect sense. I suspect that what Digits was alluding to was that it's a practical impossibility for a few people ...

Re: Debris falls from 777 during emergency landing.
I’m beginning to wonder if the MAX has set a precedent for all future aircraft issues. Will grounding of fleets be more immediate and abrupt? I've wondered the same thing. I suspect regulators will be considerably more wary about "working with" OEMs for at least the next several years, given Boeing...
