    Dang Phil, I'd hate to be runnin' around in your head today. Fact is, nearly all the businesses I service require masks on premises. And yes, I wear them on all service calls because of fear. Fear that in my wide travels I might have picked up the friggin virus and would infect my customers, most of whom I can call friends after all these years. Or, the fear I would take it to my aging parents place and end up putting them in the ground because of it. My mask wearing is empathy driven and using my BEST instincts in this f$%cked up situation. I am not doing it as a government controlled pawn, I have a good mind (pretty much) and I can think for myself. If the government did not exist, I would still be following these basic protocols because I give a sh$t about people. HHHMMMM. Ok, I give a sh$t about MOST people. AND, I'm not going to block you. Don't try to tell me what to do. Except if your helping me fix a machine, then you can tell me what to do.

        No hard feelings toward you, brother. I have a right to personal opinion, too.

          I keep him around simply to make me smile at the end of a long day with all the TDS and conspiracy theory syndrome he is infected with.

            Honestly, I have no animosity at all towards Phil, or his take on things. We have both been members here a long time, and have agreed on some things, and sometimes disagree. Part of being human beings. If we all agreed on everything all the time, our species would wither and die faster than you know. A little adversity keeps us moving forward. Ok, I'm out. Everyone have a GREAT day.

              It is his inability to contend with differing opinions that make him difficult to take seriously.

                    Not sure if anyone watches the Epic Economist. It covers information on the economy and events occurring due to the covid. Also, another good one The Money GPS

                      5 New Dangers of Dining Out No One Saw Coming

                      1. Identity tracking - Right before restaurants in Washington, D.C. were cleared for reopening and resuming their dine-in services, Washington governor Jay Inslee announced a controversial new policy aimed at limiting the spread of the virus. It includes restaurants having to record the identity and contact information of every person dining in their establishment.

                      2. Takeout apps may end up tracking your location

                      3. Overly sanitized places could be counterproductive to our health

                      The fight against coronavirus may have some negative long-term outcomes for our health. our overuse of antimicrobials may also end up having an effect on our ability to fight off germs.


                      5. Air conditioning in restaurants may help spread the virus. -

                      now on. A/C BAD!!

                        facts about Covid 19

                        Facts about Covid-19 – Swiss Policy Research

                        Amongst others
                        According to data from the best-studied countries and regions, the lethality of Covid19 is on average about 0.2%, which is in the range of a severe influenza (flu) and about twenty times lower than originally assumed by the WHO.
                        Given this, is a global vaccine needed before things return back to normal, many countries are tracking their citizens with mobile phone apps, many that are not have them in the pipeline. Since the flu mutates how will a vaccine work against a mutated Covid 19.

                          Lets suppose someone has China19 but is showing no symptoms which applies to 60% of cases. They pass it on to someone again who develops no symptoms, that second person visits their 106 year old grandmother who is currently suffering from the flu. Seems like its more about mass global surveillance than anything else.
