    I was talking about my mechanic, Sir Isaac.

    It's a child like fantasy to think that anyone could flood the body internally with UV light. It's simply not feasible to any but the most slow witted among us.

    The idea is to run blood through a UV filter externally then return it to the body, similar to a transfusion. A little research can do wonders, rather than just calling everyone stupid because you don’t understand what they’re saying.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I love how Trump supporters have tried their best to find ways that Trump's comments could actually be genius, only to get undercut by Trump himself when he said he was being sarcastic. It's very committed of you to continue to try to explain "what he really meant" even after he said he was just being sarcastic and "saying it to reporters like you to see what would happen."

    Is he European, because some of that nomenclature is strictly European.
    UV light will not penetrate the blood or did you consider that?
    No, there's no doubt about it, Trump is stupid.

    I didn’t say shit about “what he really meant”. That’s just you putting quotation marks around something you pulled out of your ass. UV light has proven to be antiseptic. There are people in the medical field not named Donald Trump experimenting with it right now. I was speaking about that.

    Trump mentioned something in passing that he has no knowledge about, end of story.

    UV light did nothing to you, please quit using it as a punching bag with Trumps face on it.

    You guys are so fucking disgruntled it’s beyond crazy.

    I'm not the one continually bringing up the UV light. I am just responding to it.
    I'm not trying to hurt your feelings. I'm just doing what I've been trained to do all my life and that's troubleshoot technical issues.
    I'd develop a little more alligator skin of you're going to get upset with criticism of Trump. I use to get pissed off at rude people in high level meetings I use to have. My boss told me about the alligator skin thing. I've tried to develop an insensitivity to that sort of thing.

    I am happy to say that I have survived 5G. Yeah!

    I have a hippie pal who is absolutely convinced from his new age tribe that 5G will be the end of us all. @Lanny or someone - would you know of a good basic article or video I could point him to to show that that is silly thinking?

    It's 7G we have to worry about.

    Thank god we are only at 5G now, but we need to take action to prevent 9G right away.

    We have to immediately screen the population for those who show an interest in telecommunications.

    Those who test positive can be quarantined until the interest goes away; if this is not sufficient we may need to develop an in-utero test for this and terminate pregnancies with that type of defect.

    I would think that it would depend on which 5G technology you were using. If it's Chinese, I would be concerned. If it's American or European, I would be less concerned. However, it is the wave of the future.

    Me too. Just 12 quarter hours of it for me, though unless you want to count the 1 hour of Environmental Impact Statement that I had in the physics building. Had 15 hours of chemistry and more electric field theory in my EE course work than you can shake a stick at which included Maxwell's equations. Took a four hour course in EE called Electric Field Theory which was pretty rigorous during my junior year. We had a Fortrran IV problem where we had to describe the electric field between two coaxial conductors that were both square in shape only rotated 90 degrees from each other using an iterative method to arrive at a solution. That program was four years of hell. I was more proud of that degree than my Computer Science degree where I had to design a working compiler and that was also pretty damn difficult.

    I had a year of physics as part of getting biology degree.

    Actually used calculus to work out area of irregular front yard.
