[11:22:29] <janrinok> and 4 more to see today covered
[13:26:39] <janrinok> Bytram, personally I think that we are giving Covid too much coverage again. So there is now a single case in the US - so what? There are cases popping up all over Europe, Africa and Asia but I don't think that they warrant a story. The discussion seems to fall predominantly on political lines and I don't see much useful or new discussion appearing as a result. Just my €0.02 worth.
[14:17:02] <chromas> Did we do the one about how they skipped a greek letter because it's raycis?
[14:56:04] <Bytram> janrinok: Agreed about frequency. Trying to put a calm voice of reason out there as a foundation for later discussion and to act as a bulwark against the no-vax/no-mask crowd. It *is* going to get discussed no matter what we do, anyway... providing an outlet for that discussion seemed prudent. That said (written) am consciously "pulling back", now.
[15:02:09] <Bytram> janrinok: also, tx for pushing out 4 stories. I have a busy day ahead so won't be able to second them for a while.
