    Beats me.

    Wish I could see it, but my internet connection out here in God's Country only allows 3 second bursts of video followed by 90 seconds of buffering. I've known the Rockefeller info for a long long time.

    On another note, there's a Yahoo News article headline claiming that areas that vote Democrat are being harder hit than others. Why? I don't know. Perhaps re-breathing the virus repeatedly inside that mask is not such a good idea?

    In truth, I suspect that it's simply that more heavily populated areas tend to vote Democrat, and they live close together, and that means it's easier to transmit.

    And heavily populated/urban areas often have greater disparities in access to good health care which often leads to the dreaded co-morbidities.

    Or democrats just die easier.

    That made me think of "Yellowbeard", the Monty Python movie. Yellowbeard and Marty Feldman (can't think of the characters name) are building coffins in the prison and Yellowbeard is complaining about the death rate:

    "When they stretched me on a rack for a couple o' years ya didn't see me go around dyin' all over the place! No! They'll have to KILL me afore I die!"

    Always cracked me up.

    The Wife and I were on call for the Y2K Apocalypse, got early reports from my company's offices in England that it was a dud, but didn't get to celebrate the new year.

    The bottom line is that apocalypses remain problematic to predict, despite Science and models and algos and all of that. Makes you wonder just what Stonehenge was built to avert... or what Greta will regret once she grows up.

    Ha ho. I'll be gone by then.

    We have signs over I-70 that tells us what time of day we should gas up our vehicles because of the ozone layer. Happens maybe twice a month.

    Actually, I did. Turns out it moved from the South Pole to the North Pole. No kidding. Penguins were getting sunburn; now it's auks.

    Here's an impressive way to graph it:
