  • You are not the only one. We stopped at one because there are too many people. When I was born there were almost half the number of people there are today. I’m 43. In 1980 I don’t think there was an “oh my god we don’t have enough people” vibe.

    Especially in a time where we are all worried about our future on this planet, more people means more sources of pollution. More people want a car, more people getting on planes, more people consuming goods and throw away items.

    Seems like sometimes less is more.

    As a non American, where I am from, we call them toasties. Cheese toasties, cheese and tomato toasties, etc.

    I don’t know of any puritans who argue about what a true toastie is, but I may have lived a sheltered life. People will argue about anything.


  • Agree that if an incident happens in a particular jurisdiction, the local court should handle it. That makes sense, no argument here. But here they get to choose the set of laws because there was no physical location? That just feels wrong somehow. Anyway there is a physical location and if anything, the incident was ‘perpetrated’ by a person who was physically located somewhere at the time. It should be handled by the court local to them at the time. In the case of organisations, I guess this would mean where the defendant company operates from. Or if we accept it is virtual and everywhere then, it should be governed by federal laws not state laws.
