Yep. I know I've told the tale here of my grandfather describing how, over the period of his serving in his town's volunteer fire department, calls went up something like over 100x, while actual fire calls plummeted.
We've become a nation that turns to "experts" rather than learn anything, even the basics of our own survival.
We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
