I'm familiar with Bombadier, Marstons, McEwans and HobGoblin having seen them out and about. Haven't tasted any of them as I'm a softy who likes their alcopops, the nearest I've come to drinking Ale is some Batemans XXXB which I found agreeable, tried it because I heard it mentioned in a folk song.

My Father In Law lives off Bombardier if that helps?

I think you need to go have a word with quite a few world leaders as they appear to be under a missaprehension. The UK and Sweden for a start!

He was, but from what then subsequently happened since March 2020 it still very much appears to be part of the tool kit.

As @Vavrik says, Hurd Immunity which we have been sold on the concept of since the first months of 2020. For some varients the current generation vaccines have been able to reduce transmission to a powerful degree as they were able to prompt an immune response that dealt with the virus before...

I don't think you or anyone else who have said that in the thread is wrong on that point, and I hope it will settle into a more predictable set of stable variants which can be controlled on an everyday level or even better as I say therapeutics will make it a mundane experience to catch a COVID...

Nope. I'm suggesting that the goal most of the world was/is aiming for should not be abandoned and forgotten about just because individually a person can be individually safe if they have been vaccinated but remain a risk to others.

To me it's no longer a pandemic when the world reaches the originally stated goal from pretty much every country going: To attain a level of immunity in the population with enough people who are resistant to the virus to be able to stop it from propagating through the population to the...

Huge thanks for explaining your viewpoint while taking mine into account, appreciate it and feel I do understand your angle a lot more. I'm in the UK where the government took a different approach, they basically put the country into suspended animation with Furlough to shelve workers and a fund...

From Reading the links Shadow shared 1,760 PS3's made a 500 tflop supercomputer, a current lower price GPU is about 10 tflops so I'd need 35 PS3's to match that. Out of my scope, but it's definitely an interesting idea and definitely something I'd give a thought to if there were a more...

So would an energy weapon which fired a ball or packet of super heated plasma or ionised radiation be able to fire at the speed of light? Would such a thing even be possible within the laws of physics?

Many thanks for all responses so far :-) Second hand I think I'd only really go for something from a known retail source with a warranty or from someone I know so would know their story is straight. I can imagine there have been a thousand 'only used on weekends' cards with a pound of dust in...

Thanks for continuing to discuss this with us, I can only imagine my continued questioning is frustrating, so thank you. I'm not trying to convince you otherwise, I'm just trying to understand your viewpoint: Again - it's not the sickness rate, it's not the the hospitalisation rate, it's not...
