A best friend sent me an excellent example of creative writing recently. Commander Lloyd M. “Pete” Bucher, skipper of USS Pueblo (AGER-2) was forced to sign a “confession” under duress while he and his crew were being held by North Korea. They were subject to...

CP said, "I wish we could do an experiment and send all leftists to an island and then compare the mainland US to it in 100 years." It occurs to me that CP’s suggestion doesn’t conform to the most important scientific conventions namely that there must be only one...
