I know too much. Somehow the ancient greek teacher talked me into taking it. I wonder if there is any ethics violation in an advisor advising his advisees to take his own class… It’s a great way to convince the bosses that there is a lot of interest in your subject and thus you should continue to be employed, I suppose.

After all this time, I wouldn’t be able to walk up to the ancient athenian murder speeches and understand them, but give me a dictionary and two days and I probably would be able to pick it all up again.

I still have the .pdf of that textbook, promising myself that one day I’ll go through it again.

HA!

With him, I can guarantee he will demand that he be able to profit from it. That leaves somewhere he can ‘control’ it, like new york or florida. New york (and its government) won’t be very receptive or compliant with him, so most likely florida, where he can get the republican stooges in the various levels of government to grant him special privileges.

I still see it in the courts, both criminal and civil. It seems to make more of an impact on judges and juries, because all the lawyers love whipping out the cd and sticking it in the ancient little laptop they plug into the tv on the cart like the teacher rolled out in the 80s and 90s.

The evidence I’d add to that is it seems to start in the middle of a section of clouds, and then slowly change the width of the disturbed area. If the line makes that hard 90 degree turn that OP mentioned, it could be the final descent pattern of a plane landing at an airport.

Your idea of it is a hilarious (sort of) possible backstory to all of the thriller/horror movies where one person is ‘the only one who remembers X!’

They did a good job with the gradual changes, but I couldn’t watch it all the way through. The main cast is just too irritating to watch. If I wanted to watch (the equivalent of) children deal with an interesting premise in adult bodies, I would just go back to Big or 13 Going On 30.

I think you have it backwards. They remember their timeline, which doesn’t match the knowledge that everyone else around them has. A quick example is

I don’t know… it sounds like your comment could use a /s

Maybe it’s just me, but libertarians have always been a weird bunch, because there are some large gaps between those who fall under its banner. I’ve seen anarchist commune types as well as the ‘government better watch out because I’m the only owner of THIS land’ prickly sorts at the same event. It’s not so much that the ideals of libertarian thought have been taken into conservative realms, but that the sorts of libertarians who could align with the ‘conservative’ drive to make the government small and speak up loudly are now getting their moment in the spotlight.
