The first investigation dates back to the 90s, and the "recovered memory" movement. A lot of people were harmed by this psychotherapy fad, usually people we never heard about, when purported victims were basically coached into "remembering" sexual offences committed by their fathers. More prominent cases were the McMartin pre-school case with clowns who committed the purported

Human "A" wakes up--is spooked by strange but natural phenomenon. Human "B" then wakes up--or is woken up. Now the dog is disturbed, and also responds. Perhaps. But dogs do have more finely attuned senses: I allow for the possibility that there was an intruder who then fled. More info would help, especially if you made a careful check of possible modes of entry and ex

A couple of months ago, my pastor announced a meeting for "anybody involved in the cleaning ministry, or who would like to be." 20% of the membership showed up. My rotation used to be once every three weeks. Now it's about once every three months. (Incidentally, I like the vacuuming. I put on noise-suppression headphones with bluetooth, turn on some tunes, go to work. Takes about

I have a large tea ball, about 3.5 inches in diameter, stainless and seriously perforated. I put about 3 table spoons of looseleaf tea in it. I boil about 8-10 cups of water in a sauce pan. Allowing it to taper off a rolling boil, just a little, I drop the tea ball into it, and let it sit a few hours, cooling down & stirring it from time to time. At room temperature, the potion is fully s

The European Union has approved the addition of ground insect-based powder as a food additive. Modest, but major movements usually start with modest first steps. I did see one meme (heads up, tumwater) of a person at a fastfood counter holding an open bun and telling the counter attendant, "I believe my social credit score entitles me to one more grasshopper."

I picked up a juice box at a hospitality counter recently. Attached to it was a paper straw wrapped in plastic wrapper. After half-chewing the wrapper off, I tried to drive the paper straw into the little foil hole of the juice box. It wouldn't go, and the point of the paper straw got all mangled. I ended up stabbing a hole in the juice box with the tip of a key. Later, I was about to drop the

Now the climatistas are proposing we put reflective devises in the upper atmosphere to reduce the amount of sunlight on the Earth's surface. As we wait for the details of that to work out, we're supposed to keep installing solar panels to capture sunlight.

First of all, it’s two letters. It means artificial intelligence, but ultimately what it is, is it’s about machine learning. And so, the machine is taught — and part of the issue here is what information is going into the machine that will then determine — and we can predict then, if we think about what information is going in, what then will be produced in terms of decisions and opinions
