  4. Re:I can vouch for this. on Want to Be Happy? Think Like an Old Person (nytimes.com) · · Score: 1

    Actually, the fact that older persons are happier is caused by a change in their hormones.
    Forcing yourself to 'think differently' doesn't do much, I'm afraid.
    The advice should be to either get old, or get the same hormonal levels as an old person.

    If ripping is a crime in the USA, then do it abroad, and bring the result home.

    I'm sure they'll change the wording into 'certified film maker'.

  9. Re:How about... eat healthy on US Drugmaker Raises Price of Vitamins By More Than 800% (ft.com) · · Score: 1

    Unfortunately that's not true (anymore).
    Already in the 60's a report mentioned that the way agriculture is practised will result (and has resulted) in depletion of the soils and that as a result the level of nutrients would be (has been now) reduced considerably.
    Standard supplementation seems a good plan to me.

    If it's only the nicotinic acid that can be hepatoxic, then why should people who take niacin take ER?

    They won't give a damn how you think about them.
    You're only 0.01% of their target audience, if ever you're part of it at all.
    The other 99.99% have no clue.

  15. Re:A politician lied? on Internal FCC Report Shows Republican Net Neutrality Narrative Is False (vice.com) · · Score: 1

    It wasn't a lie.
    It was a promise he didn't keep.
    Politicians should be punished for not keeping their election promisses.

    Evolution isn't 'about' anything, it just happens while you look at it.

    There is no goal, there simply is elimination if you don't reproduce.
    That's all evolution is about, it has no goal.

  24. Next step of course is testing the hypothesis that cerebral atrophy is the culpit.
    So find old people with different gradations of atrophy but the same level of brain wave synchronicity and check whether their memories behave according to the theory. If not, theory falsified, if yes, go to the next step. But quickly please, because I almost turn 60.
