You'll get the same thing happening in the Midwest too. It isnt the salt. It's because the post is made of lead and the connector is made of brass or steel or some other metal. Thats just galvanic corrosion. The goop keeps moisture away. You'll get the same thing if you have a steel engine block and an aluminum radiator. Different metals connected by water.

Not stolen, conquered. It was gonna happen no matter what. It's a huge land populated by people literally still in the Stone Age. Everyone says "stolen" because words like slaughtered or obliterated sound objectively much worse. If the tables were turned they wouldve done the same. We know that because they tried and succeeded for a little while.

I'll forgive you for not knowing how China works. It isn't like the West or even Korea, Taiwan, Japan, etc. You can't just travel in China like that. Its all controlled. You'd better have an approved reason.

The supposed bat origin of the virus is from Laos, a good thousand miles away. So you are misinformed about basic details.

China teaches their kids to hate Americans and Japanese and the CCP approves of it. It's not hard to find footage of Chinese children saying they want to kill us when they grow up.

Every child predator has succeeded or is trying to succeed in getting a child to open up to them in confidence. They're trying to drop the child's guard. You seriously can't understand why an adult secretly talking to children about sex is bad?

I disagree. Adaptation implies actively changing toward a goal, whereas evolution is random chances that sometimes work right. I would argue cancer is likely all random.

3 hours away? By wheelchair? Its roughly 10 miles away in a city of 3200 square miles. Yeah, the idea that a virus escaped from one of the only labs in the entire planet that was specializing in coronaviruses is ludicrous, purely a staggering coincidence. What is this now, the fourth or fifth animal they've implicated? After screaming that it was bats and pangolins for years with no actual evidence it's obvious they are desperate for a zoonotic origin.

Little early to be calling it "life long".

Yeah, that stuff is all weird and sick. But, the solution to perverts exposing young children to sexual things is not to beat them to it. A lot of parents don't want some other adult talking to their 7 year old about sex. It's creepy. Why force it on them? Not really respecting their feelings on that.

It isn't anti-gay. The bill doesn't even mention it. It just says that teachers can't discuss sexuality with kids in third grade or less. I don't see what's wrong with that.

According to the author's bio, she's "TIME’s senior international climate and environment correspondent, covering the human impacts of climate change". Right or wrong, was there any other conclusion she would reach?

What's your solution for hydrogen embrittlement? Metals will soak up hydrogen and become brittle. Not a good thing in something intended to contain thousands of explosions every minute.

Take it from Miracle Max, there's a big difference between mostly dead and all dead. Unfortunately the only thing pig had to live for was "to blave".

That statement is so generic you can drop almost any plural identifying word in there and the statement still holds. Try it. Christians, men, women, scientists, astronauts, Russians, white supremacists. All it takes is a misplaced belief in your groups own superiority for a person to say that.
