    Hi Wendy, PERFECT! People who were not there in '72 probably cannot understand just how popular Nixon was then. IMO he would have won easily without the whole CREEP thing. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Robert, Maybe he will become the Harold Stassen of the 21st century. 'his name became most identified with his status as a perennial candidate.' Harold Stassen - Wikipedia 'We have to turn the election over,” Trump said from the Oval Office' 'This was an election that we won easily,” he said. “We won it by a lot.' Biden seeks unity as Trump stokes fading embers of campaign (apnews.com) If you're going to dream, dream bigly. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Mark, Just for you, I re-read the entire piece. Now, show me where it says: ‘but it's not the same as snitching on your neighbor because he was in his backyard without a COVID mask on.’ I'll settle for anything similar. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Nigel, A lot of people did not like rationing during WW II. But, they got thru it & it went away, You will survive it also. And, some places are doing it here in Oregon. You can chose not to frequent them. Jerry Baumchen PS) You're starting to sound like Mark Harju.

    Hi Bill, Re: "success"="growth." I do believe that is what Keynesian Economics is based on. Continual expansion is not sustainable on a finite planet. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi folks, And another Trumper has it: 'a member of Trump’s campaign legal team, Boris Epshteyn, announced Wednesday he had tested positive' The Latest: Trump won't be at Giuliani election fight event (apnews.com) Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Wendy, Re: 'He's right' IMO it depends upon context. He is not right about wearing masks, etc. Re: 'but sometimes there are exigent circumstances.' And sometimes it is simply that people can be stupid. I despise wearing a mask; however, I want to live a little longer & I want my family & friends to live also. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Robert, I am going to disagree. I have long said that this election would be a referendum on Trump. The R's held the Senate & made gains in the House. That says that a lot of Americans voted for the R's. They then did not vote for Trump. Could he have won if he had done something different? Who knows; he lost & it is now history. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Mark, You have posted: ‘The gov of Oregon is urging citizens to report non-compliance with the latest Royal Proclamations.’ ‘but it's not the same as snitching on your neighbor because he was in his backyard without a COVID mask on.’ ‘Nonetheless, I stand by my remarks.’ The governor of Oregon ( where I live ) never said to turn in your neighbor for being in the backyard without a mask. Do your homework & try to be correct in the future. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Robert, Well done. Actually, I am amazed that you found it. And, I stand corrected: He did not say, 'Life is not fair,' he said, 'Life is unfair.' I'll try to remember that. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Ken, Re: ' It is a difficult task to make emergency aid be fair.' During a press conference, when asked a question I no longer remember, JFK replied, 'Life is not fair.' I have always remembered those words. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Ken, Yup, probably for more years than either of us can remember. And, just so you know; I was only trying to help. And, I am also a terrible on-screen proof reader. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Ken, I believe it is: If you cannot do the time, don't do the crime. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi John, I agree 100%. I do not want any 'crimes' made up. If he has committed 'crimes' then I want justice => prosecution. I will let others decide if he has committed any 'crimes.' Jerry Baumchen

    Hi olof, He has convinced them to 'try something.' I seriously doubt that this is going anywhere. Just more wasted effort. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Robert, I have always considered that about the dumbest thing Nixon every said; second only to, "I am not a crook.' I am for prosecuting Trump for any crimes that he committed while Pres. We can prosecute Congress Critters & members of the SCOTUS for any crimes they commit. Why would the worst Pres in my lifetime be exempt? It sure would send a message to future Presidents. Personally, I do not think Biden will go after Trump; so that ends any federal charges. It will be up to the states to give him lodging in prison. I think an orange jumpsuit will go nicely with his orange hair. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi jakee, That pretty much describes the entirety of the Trump administration. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Robert, And does another R senator: 'Sen. Rick Scott of Florida tests positive for COVID-19' https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2020/11/20/u-s-sen-rick-scott-florida-tests-positive-covid-19/6354712002/ Not a lot going for the R's right now. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi folks, Re: 'numbers don't lie' And, therein lies Trump's problem. https://www.bbc.com/news/election-us-2020-55006188 Re: 'Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger expressed disappointment his party lost' Looks like a trend. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Wendy, Re: 'Let's discuss the article.' You've already told him not to violate the rules of the forum. I call for a 30-day ban. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Bill, I doubt that Ron actually edited it. It probably came from one of those goofy websites he visits. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi airdvr, Re: 'Hoping Trump transitions power nicely' Just another way your guy is nothing but a dipstick. Aren't you glad you voted for him? Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Cosmic, I would recommend that you write up a repair procedure, including replacing the data panel information, and take it to your local FSDO for them to review & approve it. Then do what it says to do. Keep your paperwork & pass it on to any future owner. Jerry Baumchen
