Both of my two children were born around 31 weeks. The first was in a ICU for 3 weeks, and humidicrib for about 4 weeks.
My second was healthier (wife managed to get steriods to improve the baby's lungs before birth), but was still in hospital for around 5 weeks.
My wife was admitted to hospital during both pregnancies multiple times due to excessive vomiting.

We calculated the total cost to us for both pregnancies - it was around $200. Thankfully we live in Australia were there is a proper health care system.

It was driven by Stalin - who wanted to destabilise the leadership to cement his position. Several times he would get people to do his dirty work for him (such as run denouncements, trials and executions), then turn on the person doing the work by appointing a new person to take over the very same role.

I guess you are putting out the welcome mat so they can move in with you then?

Head you win, tails I lose hey?

With that sort of attitude, I think I'll stick with my original premise.

Um, I spent 21 years as a CS lecturer

News flash : The employment process and skills required for professors works to screen out most crazy humans, leading to a difference in overall craziness profile.

We do understand how to maintain balance on a bike.

People steer into the continual tiny falls that happen all the time, actively steering the bike upright.

If I was in his position I would say that I was showing someone how secure First State Superannuation's service is - "Look you can even change any of these digits and nothing will happen!...Hmmm.... that's strange!". I would mention looking at many of them.
