Paul,
If you read it on the internet, then it must be relevant and true!

You should thank god you got your inheritance to live on, as you don’t have sense enough to hold down a job that would support you in the style you are accustomed to!

So I have to disagree that online communities were available 10+ years before the internet. The hardware just wasn't even available then.

Bulliten boards existed from the start of connected computing. First with 300 baud and moving up, in kindergarten, we had a teletype to connect to BBS, later Hayes modems arrived in the early 80s and soon v.21 v.22 in mid 80s login to 1200 baud.

In my neighborhood (in silicon valley) we had terminals and modems at home in the early 70s. Games like Caves, etc brought shared environments to multiple users.

Using modem compression and compressed files we could share a great deal of news, text, and images too. Data compression was critical, as was multiple phone lines to run a Board over 1200-2400.

v.32 brought 9600 and v.32bis 14,400 which was significant in the early 90s.

Bell Labs was supportive of our efforts and I was among the first to develop BBS with shared copper lines with ISDN combining multiple 56k lines to allow multiple people to use images and graphics to create art together across the world at events like Siggraph broadcast on large multiscreens creating HD with 56k modem technology in the early 90s.

USENET supported mass transfer of news groups (in the early mornings, in the early 80s there were more than 100,000 usenet groups and fidonet for bbs mail so we had global email and news over 1200baud to BBS as kids, and as mentioned Compuserve and later Aol and many other dial services, if you were interested in that crap.

Finally, v.32 brought 28.8 and 33.6 and soon thereafter v90 Hayes modems brought 56k to everyone.

I was a volunteer editor for the IEEE, because they wanted kids t help create standards docs that were easy to read and understand, IT was common to pass all standards docs to a group of kids and homogenize technical jargon. That is why I remember the standards and speeds not to mention I spent all my savings on modems and hand built servers from car at Fries and other warehouses.

We were assigned the task of creating tons of icons at 32x32 pixels prior to the broad arrival of http since there was need for library management of file types and iconifying experiences.

First Xerox and ARPANET had an extended network of more than 300,000 computers.


Soon after came the broad access to internet with http which brought graphical ui to shared text/images to masses.

Soon Sun and SGI etc joined the backbone and boom we were connected and there was need for huge number of websites and communities.

Since that moment I hand built sites everyday at first using cgi perl, php, html etc now both open source and off the shelf - its much easier, now I build sites for the enterprise Borg that serve millions of users with personalized content, which leads us to THE POINT... of the WEF call for a planned 4th Industrial Revolution also known as the Great Reset which required a catalyst in the form of a pharma pandemic of gain of function of SARS2 called COVID to force everyone to work remotely and adopt automation, robotics, simulation and artificial intelligence and crypto currencies in order to precipitate central banking re-fuedalism.

Interesting this makes curmudgeons upset, but I guess I understand why, when here we are still using a basic text based simplified BBS called XMB -- ON THE INTERNET while we have 300/mbs fiberwire into our homes. $#@!%

Oh wait why is SkiJack mad again - darn I always forget why he is mad but he sure is mad. !#$%@!

It's funny to make up lies and post nonsense on Baja travel boards, but, to clarify, I come from a family that is strictly against nepotism, no one in the family has ever received a a trust or cash because it is believed that perceived likelihood of future inheritance is inverse to personal drive to succeed.

During this time of COVD shutdown, I have had high productivity.

Recently I began to build my own ranch clearing the land myself to grow my own food in Baja, each step I have paid from my own pocket and hand built every piece along the way. I also help my neighbors, (gringos too), to fix their cars and build their ranches to build a working community.

In just one year I have rebuilt multiple motors and rebuilt quads and motos that were abandoned and unused. Prior to this year I had never built a motor.

As for Goat, he's notorious at making up unkind things about others who disagree with him or who he disagrees with. I guess that's how he gets his jollies. A few years ago he doxed my KIDs and made up stuff about them as well. Just to mention a few things he said about my family. Can't get to me so he lowers himself to attach ones innocent family members. I guess it's just the type of person he is. A shame such a learned person transforms himself into a hateful lowlife.

I find this type disinformation campaign on masks disturbing. And I don’t understand why someone won’t believe an article from AP news but blindly believe something from the Montana daily gazette. Frankly I don’t believe either and I am especially skeptical when something agrees with what I have as a preconceived idea.

Gnukid just got inserted in the back of the line on BN.

Key to critical thinking is the ability to be able to read a variety of sources, including those that do not align to your biases, hold the thought, consider the issues and use your critical thinking to come to a consensus conclusion. You can not think critically by restricting or censoring content, and rely on one source or a politically aligned sources. Moreover, sharing sources, data, etc doesn't infer that the data reflects the views of the poster sharing the source, it is simply another source to consider in the big picture, to arrive at a truth.

Also, we see that during high number of COVID deaths, common causes of death were radically reduced, Heart Disease, Diabetes, Cancer, Pneumonia etc. and common influenza disappeared completely. Were common illnesses and influenza cured while covid flourished, or were those common illnesses recategorized as COVID?

Due to our both having good "anti-bodies" still, we do not intend to get vaccinated for Covid at this time. I do get the seasonal vaccinations many get (flu, etc.), but not this new one for Covid since we already have Covid anti-bodies.

You have every right to not get a vaccine. But their are consequences associated with that choice, and some of those consequences include you not being allowed into specific locations - I assume you are good with accepting the consequences of your decisions?

The 2 most common symptoms in long haulers are fatigue and brain fog. 1/3 of covid infectees are long haulers.

It was developed by the CIA at the request of You-know-who and planted in China knowing it would spread to the U.S. in order to resolve the Social Security financial crisis (cull the old folks), shifting blame to China in order to divert attention from the real culprits.

Yes, "brain-fog" and "fatigue" comes and goes, and we also have intermittent loss of smell and taste, and we also are sleeping a lot, often 10 hours a night, all of which are very unusual for us before having Covid. We blame "Covid" for everything, but who knows how much our age has to do with how we feel?!?!? Slowly, we are returning to normal, we think.

Thanks, BajaMama, I really appreciate hearing that. I had not heard that about the vac. maybe helping "long haulers". Certainly worth looking into. My wife and I are somewhat better now, but I am still plagued with serious joint-pain and mild fatigue that I did not have before our Covid bout in early November, 2020. Trying lots of different OTC anti "pain and inflammation" pills that certainly help (ALEVE, Advil dual-action, Harvey's Raisins, etc.), but I hate becoming addicted to them long term. Whatever works is my guide, but used with caution. We will get another "anti-body" blood check nest month to see if we are still positive. Our Health Insurance (Medicare and Blue Cross) totally covers the "anti-body" tests, so far.. Barry A.

An example of race is brown, white, or black skin (all from various parts of the world), while an example of ethnicity is German or Spanish ancestry (regardless of race) or Han Chinese. Your race is determined by how you look while your ethnicity is determined based on the social and cultural groups you belong to. You can have more than one ethnicities but you are said to have one race, even if it's "mixed race"."

I merely mentioned I got a virus that emanated from China, I never degraded any Chinese people. I didn't even blame an open air market or bats.
