So, are you suggesting that handicap access initiatives are actually paving the way for Dalek domination?

... Daleks really are the pinnacle of evolution.

To add to your observations regarding the P-51, it should be noted that its primary adversary were later model Messerschmitt 109s, the superior Focke Wulf 190 never reaching the numbers of production the 109 attained. Hitler had banked all on the 109, expecting a short war decided by quantity more than quality. As a result, the 109's ageing airframe was fitted with ever larger and ever thirstier engines. By late in the war, the 109s which scrambled to meet incoming waves of Allied bombers, escorted by p-51s, had the performance to give the Mustangs a run for their money, but quickly had to go back for more fuel. When the 109 climbed back up to the fray, those same p-51s it had engaged could still be waiting.

... much of the region is suffering from drought conditions. While eastern drainages to the Colombia have a fairly robust snow pack, many to west and south of the river are suffering. This would normally suggest the Army Corps of Engineers would want to hold back more water in the reservoirs, but this news impacts such actions. In the mixed new category, storms are currently lining up to dump on the region.

How is this the tech industry and not the news media? The media is devising the click bait; Evans is just piling on.

... could the ethical operation of a company be characterized as irresponsible.

Barter is the way of the future. How many goats for that Lexus?

An intriguing proposition, but upon reflection, I'm left to conclude that, at least in the case of certain politicians, the Divine Architect assigned that function to the cranium.

If God had intended man to elevate, he would have given him counterweights.

I have long held that the former Soviet Union and its satellites provide the best example of the costs extracted from a society by the most common form of corporate welfare, being allowed to pollute. Unfortunately, it is a lesson the West has largely ignored.

Thank you for your insightful post
