Freepmail. Four-letter-word but funny, gallows humor.
Yeah, and just get one of those water purifiers. It’s an investment you hope you’ll never need.

Shanghai shares market up .25% in Monday trading (government buying shares to prevent crash. How long can that work?).
Bingo!
Self contained septic system with 35,000 gallons of pool water and a filtration system. I can go 45 days with no food, water, electricity or sewage for my 16 member family. I got religion with the Ebola scare 3 or 4 years ago.
Well this explains a lot, doesn’t it?
Old news. We’ve been discussing that, on the CV threads, for a while.
Pretty interesting, about Gates, isn’t it?
My observations are this: There are very little deaths outside China. What causes my eyebrows to raise is the ridiculous C-coms government response to this virus. (Ive never seen anything like it) Chi-coms government are like progressives - they lie. I think it is prudent to prepare - if nothing happens in the next few weeks then good. Nobody wants to use their health insurance obviously.
I think so.

Is this referring to the study with 8 samples, and only 1 Asian sample? While interesting and worthy of further study, it is too small of a sample to draw any kind of conclusions.
Wow! Twitter has blocked/deleted it already!
Excellent work by a very respected, knowledgeable person.
Link still works.
