This is a nice tactic, where you minimize your denials down to the bare minimum each time. Fun.

We already know there was a significant Russian effort to influence the election. We already know that the campaign chair, Trump's eldest son and son-in-law had direct contact with it. If you think Tump wasn't told, you're nuts.

I still do not think you understand the point he was making.

The Interim's been happening since the 18th century.

Don't make too many assumptions here. Chobani started in the Otsego, NY area and then expanded into Idaho, and has attracted a lot of immigrants who are coming from rural places and comfortable in rural places. I've worked with people doing tech businesses in places like Northern Florida, Northern Ontario, Alabama, Utah, and Eastern Washington, and know tech immigrants who have moved to all parts of the US and enjoyed it. The largest trade group that targets immigrant entrepreneurs, The IndUS Entrepreneurs, has chapters in places like Ohio and Tampa and Pittsburgh, all off the beaten tech path. And if you look at the MIT student population, the immigrants among the students are probably a significantly more rural group than the Americans in terms of origin. But if you look at why North Florida gets a big immigrant entrepreneurial community, in Gainesville and Jacksonville and Orlando, while Morgantown gets next to none, the difference is UFlorida v. WVU and the welcomingness of the Floridians versus the West Virginians.

Yes, there are people who will gravitate towards SV and Boston regardless of what you do. But a lot of getting immigrant entrepreneurs to move elsewhere is the difference between whether the welcoming committee wants to try their food or burn down their temple.

But the rural parts of the country, like the urban parts, were originally settled by immigrants, and can just as easily be a home for them.

Some reading for Sebby.

I didn't say I was a typical American. It seems pretty obvious to me that at any point in time, there are both people who are enjoying the benefits of living and working in areas that are benefiting from economic change, and people who aren't. I get that not everyone is the former. I don't get why you like to pretend that the former doesn't exist.

Re: Mother, mother, mother - there's too many of you crying.
 

The former is 30% of the country. I've acknowledged that endlessly.

No analogue of Moore's law applied in the 18th century.

But I don't think I want to live to be 90 - http://www.chicagotribune.com/lifest...220-story.html

What if one works out hard in the day, then drinks heavily? Live to be 100?

Re: Mother, mother, mother - there's too many of you crying.
 

I don't get how I can drink all day in Mexico, for three or four days straight, and not feel hungover the next day...yet if I have two martinis after 8 pm at the local I feel like crap the next day.

Because they are watering your booze?

For TM
 

So I used "He can suck all the dicks" during a meeting last week.

I know it's not yours. But thank you. Yes, it's obvious. But still, so effective.

Re: Mother, mother, mother - there's too many of you crying.
 

When home do you drink every night? I think the trick is to do so, so a bit ragged becomes baseline.

And the voice gets more sexy over time.
