Re: Lots of equipment can have surveillance ability
I keep thinking of the people who stagger out to the kitchen in the middle of the night completely naked, to get a snack out of the refrigerator that has had a video device activated.

Yeah, guys don't mind being caught naked but who wants to be photographed surreptitiously in private? That's creepy.

Oh fear not, even Jones' staunchest supporters take his far-out stuff with a big chunk of salt.

Re: Gay Knees?
I may have to disabuse you of the idea that I have any sense at all, by pointing out that the donor's orientation concerns the possibility of getting HIV or AIDS in a blood transfusion. Since I assume they screen the blood for that (I hope) then orientation is meaningless. I have met one gay man who died of AIDS, a woman friend of mine was hopelessly in love with him, and known of others among my acquaintances, it isn't something to take lightly. These days there isn't much danger of getting these diseases through a blood transfusion because when the epidemic and its causes had become known the gay community got smart and gave up their promiscuous habits.
I didn't read through the post about "gay knees" -- Forgive please, my eyes are particularly bad right now though they may get better as the day wears on -- something to do with a knee replacement? There is no such thing as a "gay" knee but if there is any disease danger that would be what the real reason for refusing it could be. But they don't use real bone do they?

Re: Gay Knees?
So the guy thought an artificial knee could be "gay?"

Re: Gay Knees?
I think they thought of transplant of live tissue instead of replacement by artificial prosthetic then believed the doctor was lying when he tried to explain. For some people reality is not an impediment to their deeply felt illusions. Sound familiar M'Lady?
Please don't ask me to read your mind. But it does remind me of illusions such as the ToE and the OE and atheism if that's what you mean.

Re: Gay Knees?
This was long before gay marriage. Gays were pairing up and living together like married partners long before legal marriage became an issue and there are many gays who think it's wrong to legally marry because they have the good sense to know it's for heterosexuals and makes no sense for gays.

Re: Gay Knees?
Just have to point out that this is typical of liberal thought. I'd said nothing to suggest I'd have the problem imputed to me but nevertheless it is imputed to me. That is slander/libel is it not? This is in fact what has been done to Trump for three years now. He's done none of it but he's made guilty of it anyway.
