@safewordsorg Please tell your story as you need to tell it. You do not have to be the parent “protecting” the world. Those who might be “upset or hurt” need to work their own issues. Thanks.

@Teslarati Tesla having a PR department would make little difference because, to be effective, its reply would have to be reported in the same channels as the original. Given the bias of MSM, this is highly unlikely. Thanks.

@charlesmurray Non-Marxists would probably find this answer funny; dedicated socialists would not because the topic is above all . . . serious. Thanks.

My daughter's friend in grad school, upon being asked by a member of her dissertation committee why she didn't include a Marxist perspective. "I grew up in the Soviet Union. I don't practice recreational Marxism."

@mysteriouskat By first giving myself permission to take a fifteen minute nap. Admitedly this is difficult while caring for children or working in a busy office. Thanks.

@Friended4Ever Rehabilitation or punishment is an old old conumdrum. But the woke seem to think that they have identified something new. Thanks.

I have not read Elmore Leonard for years, but I remember thinking that his choice of words to express the characters was outstanding. I also read somewhere that J.K. Rowling intentionally made the words and sentence structures, and ideas more complex in succeeding books to match the growing age of her audience. Thanks.

@Irina_exh Viruses? Bacteria? Depending on your definition of “creature.” Thanks.

A single unified story does not exist because the takeover has not yet succeeded. Despite doctrinal intent, Islam has simply not been able to mount the forces necessary to conduct a “continuous religious war” over much time and many places. The historical story would be suddenly and dramatically rewritten should the “takeover” succeed. Thanks.

After the initial shock of transition, we will live in an intelligence network that is as useful, ubiquitous, and commonplace as the current electrical network. Thanks.

@Deandawiz Please be careful. Many of your readers might not be able to distinguish irony or sarcasm from stupidity? Thanks.

@Kristinartz Sloppy Joes. The buns and the simple mess make the difference! Thanks.

[Alan Appel @aappel]

@WacheeWeekian @MandyLSimard You're right about the insult. Sorry. I still think the original question was legitimate. Thanks.

[Alan Appel @aappel]

@lastsaskliner @uaustinorg That was my inclination also. But I think some teaching would be necessary to make sure that what was learned included Sowell's methods, not just the topic at hand. Thanks.

[Alan Appel @aappel]

@firstchecker2 @uaustinorg Good choice! Thanks.

[Alan Appel @aappel]

@LibertyPositive I agree that you are confused! Thanks.

[Alan Appel @aappel]

@WacheeWeekian @MandyLSimard OK. So I will select the insect Doofus Americanus. What is the point? Thanks.

[Alan Appel @aappel]

@BellaBaddie__ Yes. Occassional meetings for dinner are nice also. Thanks.
