...... or what we believe in
By the Numbers , the Torstar
4 % Americans who doubt smoking causes cancer
6 % Who question whether mental illness is a disease
15 % Doubt the safety and effectiveness of vaccines
40 % Doubt Global Warming and life evolved through natural selection
51 % Question the Big Bang Theory for origins of the universe
12.7 Fatal air accidents / billion passengers
1.9 Ferry fatalities / billion passengers
Ferry and airplane passengers are equal in number during a year
The analysis
I enjoy science , always have
Smoking can cause cancer
Mental illness is most likely a physical condition
Get vaccinated - roll the dice , its risk and reward , I question vaccines but still get them
Global Warming - happened many times - Are humans changing the rate or effect ,probably
BBT - excellent TV show , at lest consistently hilarious
Weather : cool going to warm rain is due , off and on all week
Computer life
we are using a Dell laptop as our main computer , this system has worked out , esp. since Ant played w/ the thing ,and got it faster
This AM , I was sitting , getting ready to go on the internet and said
" Self , when did you last back up data etc on the laptop "
Answer : 2011 / 12 /28 Oops !
Started the process ( 1 1/4 hr ) and bingo bango , message pops up ' insufficient room for storage '
Now , the laptop called for the same device used to back up in 2011, so I did
Apparently , there is way more on the laptop ( no kidding ) since its used every day now
Finally , dumbo here , twigs to the fact the second hard drive that I purchased is perfect for this job
then , another 1 later , back up is done
Good one , self , 2 1/2 h to back up the computer
A flaming genius at work , duh !!!
Intelligence is the myth
