" According to government statistics, 95 percent of all children start school but the drop out rate is high. Only 80 percent graduate from elementary school. In poor rural areas the enrollment is only about 60 percent, with only 70 percent completing the first four years of primary school. Fewer than 35 percent of China's youth enter high school, and of these the drop out rate is high."
individual circumstances aside, with limited resources, don't you think it far more likely that the really good students, somehow find a way to be among those who remain.

it's valid where notification, not consent is required.
The one I never understood was the phone listings with the odd double s symbol that meant service recording equipment is in use at that number.. because ONE directory had the symbol- you don't need the beep... it was enough notification.. even if you got the phone number through other channels...

how do you then fulfill the need to finance programs like medicare and medicade and social security and child protection agencies without looking into individual case files for signs of wasteful spending?
you can't review expenditures/audit without having the details....

You can keep pool water sterile/inhospitable with other methods
o3 as used in pools should be ideal here- it disappears from the system very quickly.
chlorine (bleach) does tend to sit around in the water and react longer, o3 is very toxic to life, but tends to obliviate itself
a giant corona discharge wire on the inlet-- no?
or the skeptic scientists.
the beep is considered notification
it's valid where notification, not consent is required.
The one I never understood was the phone listings with the odd double s symbol that meant service recording equipment is in use at that number.. because ONE directory had the symbol- you don't need the beep... it was enough notification.. even if you got the phone number through other channels...

the general argument here is that other planets lacking oceans also have magnetic fields-- so that ain't right..
