    Sneezes do not travel 8 meters if the sneezer is wearing a mask.

    Once again, large droplets, the source of this infection do not linger.  Aerosols lingers.  Aerosols are not causing this infection.

    My solution has nothing to do with never interacting again.  It has everything to do with getting this disease isolated and done with. 

    There are over 5 million people that have had this disease and tested positive for it. The number is likely 10x that but the fact remains, 1.5 million people gave it to those 5 million.  Most, except the sociopaths would not have interacted with others if they knew they were infectious.  

    Until we test and trace everyone, the only way to stop it is to keep people from passing it along.  That you have some "Muh freedom" hangup on it is mind boggling.  If people would stop infecting others, it would go away.   The sooner we accomplish that, the faster we can get along without masks.  Everyone is acting like spoiled children.  "but I don't wanna wear a mask, it's hot and uncomfortable".  Grow up.

     

     

     

    So you know more than the researchers that all agree a sneeze send droplets 30 ft. Okay.

    There are 10s if not hundreds of millions people that have had this disease.  Its been here for over 6 months.  The genie is out of the bottle.  You either build a resistance or not.

    Trace the interactions of millions of people? And I thought you were being serious.  Test millions of people, yeah thats gonna work.   

    And yes "muh freedom" is exactly what its all about.  You just wish to impose your view on everyone else.  Exercising your version of "muh freedom".  Only my version does not require you to do a damn thing.

    You know what is mind boggling.  The astounding amout of people willing to give up other peoples freedoms.

     

    Those who would give up essential liberty, to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

    1.  They happen to be right accidentally.

    2.  Again, shitty organization.

    3.  Yes, adults need to be told this.

    4.  6 feet was not pulled out of the air.  There are droplet studies.  One here: https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMc2007800

    Sneeze droplets go about 1.5 meters if someone is wearing a mask.

    Large droplets are what is causing this infection, not aerosols.   You are somewhat protected from an infected person if you are wearing a mask.   If that person is wearing mask, you are protected even better.  If both are, the chance of infection approaches zero.

    Source control is the answer to all this.  Stop the infection at the mouth that has it.  This is done with a mask.

    If this disease was infectious once symptoms appear, you mask the sick people, the problem goes away.

    This disease is infectious one to five days before symptoms appear.    You want to be an adult?  Wear a mask.  You may be infected and not know it.  

     

     

    4. https://www.sciencefocus.com/the-human-body/how-far-do-coughs-and-sneezes-travel/  Try 8 meters and stay in the air for 10 minutes.

    Want to be an adult.  Be self reliant.  If an adult is cautious about a disease,  that adult wears a mask.  That adult doesn't expect EVERYONE ELSE ON THE FACE OF THE EARTH TO work around their caution.  

    So your solution is to NEVER interact with a person again.   Because you never know what they have, and if you might get it. Because all thru the history of man and all the diseases and virus's that plagued us, the solution is to isolate the healthy so that they won't catch anything.  Oh wait that's not it.

    Life has risks.  Be the bubble boy or go about and enjoy life.

    That's pretty much every basement contractor on earth. Followed closely behind by their mold remediation buddies. 

    Mid-atlantic is  even worse.  I got 4 estimates for my job.  Their guy came out with a wood moisture meter and touched my outside foundation.  oh no 20% moisture, we will need to dig out the entire outside of the foundation seal it etc, etc.  (Walls NEVER leaked) Then came the "if you sign today price".

    Lets just say 3  other contractors were within 1k of each other 20k less than those shysters.

    That was a lie to prevent a run on masks. 

    Listen, I still think they are an abominable organization.  The fact is numerous sources have been saying this EXACT thing for a while now.   A stopped clock is right twice a day.  The facts finally overwhelmed the agenda.

    The bottom lines is that the  primary routes of infection are NOT FOMITES.  You don't have to sanitize your mail or your groceries or even wear gloves when you are out.  You should still keep unclean fingers away from your face holes(mouth, nose, eyes) but even if you don't, it's probably not that big of a deal. 

    It shows that barriers and distance work.  Also, the evidence is very strong that outside activities are essentially zero risk.  What to avoid is large gatherings, indoors where lots of people are speaking loudly or singing.   If you do go to one of those...wear a damn mask or stay 20 feet from everyone who isn't wearing a mask.  Mask it or casket in those situations.

     

    Or wearing gloves in general when out.  

    1. So lying is their methodology.   Check.  So why should anyone believe anything they say?  

    2.  Agreed, except they haven't proven right on ANY fact.  That's why the special assumed coronavirus death certificate.  Make sure the numbers match the assumptions.

    3. Normal hygiene and responsible behavior.  Ie wash your hands after using the restroom. Don't go cough or sneeze in someones face.  Adults need to be told this?

    4.  Barriers and distance as "recommended" DO NOT WORK.  Where does the magic 6 feet number come from?  Oh someone pulled it out of their ass.  Sneeze droplets go 30 feet or so, so hows that 6 foot working out?  Barriers?  Can you smell gas from an unlit stove burner rooms away?  Yes you can, that means the airflow gets around barriers, carrying the droplets.  

    Their is no avoiding it.  You will breathe the air that someone else has breathed.  If you are concerned, it is incumbent on YOU to take precautions. You learn how to properly wear a mask and do so.  It is not everyone else's problem.  That's what being an adult is all about.

    The CDC caught up.

    Here's what I posted on the 26 of April in this thread.

    And how about February's Masks are not important?  Or pretty much every one of their "recommendations" is the exact wrong thing to do?  Super spreader events?  Is that the new term for people enjoying life?  

    Everything about this is pure CYA to cover up supreme incompetence

     

    One of these pictures is a super spreader event, the other is observing appropriate behaviors.

    Can you tell them apart?

    Because SCOTUS is not proactive - someone needs to bring a case that has failed in the lower courts.

    That and because SCOTUS judges are a bunch of useless POS's that violate their oaths of office regularly.  There have been plenty of cases presented, that they passed on, poo pooed, or let the government off the hook by bullshit "mooting".

    Murphy is a fucking idiot.

    "RANGE REOPENING GUIDELINES
    IN NEW MURPHY EXECUTIVE ORDER
     
    May 19, 2020. As we reported yesterday, in response to ANJRPC's lawsuit, the Murphy Administration has reversed itself on its improper closure of outdoor ranges, which are now authorized to reopen as of 6:00 a.m. this Friday, May 22, subject to social distancing and sanitization protocols, and a capacity limit, among other things."
     
    Can someone explain to me how you sanitize an OUTDOOR range?

    Check with the range you are planning on using.  Some ranges have restrictions on non brass cases.   

    One RO told me that they get significantly less for the brass if there are any non brass cases in the mix.

    Other than that, shoot what you can get.

    damn, my 2 handguns are only for 90 days :/

    All NJ HG permits are good for 90 days, you may (Chief LEO's discretion) get them extended another 90 days.  About a week before expiration, if you still have a permit call the PD.  They will tell you what to do.  All it really takes is the PD to cross out old date, put in new date and initial change.  Some will extend before the expiration date, some a few days after, others not at all.

    Need advice on my work-in-progress of a back yard.


    I also need to remove some of the wire fencing that is in shambles - the issue is there is a full row of fence wire "grid" below ground level.  I tried using a cable winch puller to pull it out the ground, but it just rips whatever part of the fence I attach it to.  My next thought is to get out a pair of bolt cutters and just cut it slightly below ground level.

     

     

    Just a thought.   Maybe take a chain/cable and  lace it thru a couple of feet of the fencing then try pulling it.  That should keep the fence from coming apart.

    I can't believe I only have three episodes left.  Season 6 is very good.  I'll watch an episonde (about 50 -55 minutes long) and be like, "Wait, that wasn't almost an hour!"  And start watching the next one and it feels like 20-25 minutes have gone by and the second episode is over!

    I can already see them setting up next season.

    Semi spoiler.   

    Next season will be a clean slate.   They do a good job of tieing up the lose ends this season.
