Hi Reaper,

I think I’m ready for the BOTW sequel, but it’s sounding like it’s going to be a 2022-thing. Nevertheless, the original is still a phenomenal game.

As for sources about covid? I gave up on obtaining this from media outlets about a year ago. Of course I read, listen and watch the news to keep a pulse on the world, in general, but news pundits are no experts on medicine and science. And politicians?? I am now on my third decade of ripping both Democrats and Republicans to shreds. I can’t stand either party. Sure, I’ve held my nose and voted for them, but not out “being proud” of either. I’m a multi-party system kind of person, but that’s a totally different discussion.

Anyhow, I’ve been quite happy with a Podcast I regularly listen to called the Osterholm Report that is focused on COVID-19. He’s an epidemiologist, and I feel that he does a good job of focus on the numbers. It’s worth a listen - if you’re interested in limited-to-zero political influence on the topic.

As for the solar generator. Yes yes yes! You clearly understand that non-conventional battle is what will happen if things go downhill. It’s not about territory being taken over, violence or guerilla warfare (though, there will be some poor suckers who think they have to go that route - and will inevitably fail). It’s about cutting people off from the things they depend on in life - which ALL is backed by technology (even agriculture is). That said, once people have their power cut off (which is where a solar solution is key) or their cell phone towers jammed or their food supply interrupted, they’ll be SOL. Hopefully it doesn’t come to that, though. It’d be a complete waste of time as far as I’m concerned. Again, it’s why I try (for better or worse) to bridge gaps when I see opportunities. It’s hard these days, simply because we don’t intermingle with each other in public as much because of COVID. Thus, we don’t have a chance to have ad hoc discussions about important topics. Instead, we get stuck in our echo chambers and silos of social media.

Don’t know if the URL I’ve put below will get stripped. If so, please take a minute to go to YouTube and search for “the more we get together” by Raffi. It’s such a simple song, that for decades has been listened to by young children. I admit that Raffi annoyed me when my son was two years old, but the message of this song is so applicable (IMO) these days.
