If that will hold you back to look after your health, then there are easier choices to make a suicide. Unlike in your country, my country is not providing free medical help, so no matter where you are looking for it - with private doctor or

That is a very good point and I wonder why I have not thought about that. Though I always looked on this as a prediction tool - not for classifying things, as for that I had my own observations. I would think, that modern astrology is cultu

2019 is really too late for prediction. I was wondering about all the prophets of future and astrology that I was following and there was no one that predicted covid and lockdowns. The closest to predicting covid, lockdowns and other thing

Well, health is more valuable than any money. But I would not think, that maintaining health and knowledge is cheap. it sure is cheaper than being stupid and ruining lives of other people. Next gen medicine requires DNA sequencing to unders

The modern issue is that most of experts are with very narrow expertise, which is not carrying that great weight as you might think and such expertise also doesn't mean that much in responsibilities. My mother at 14 after a car acciden

They are not digital photos, but from films. Color films require 4 layers for colors. B&W has only one metalic silver layer and because there are no colors, it can be more granulated. I think, that silver crystals were even smaller than

No, you are getting off the rails here - to prove that cancer causes smoking you have to provide real life example of a non smoker, where after getting cancer, a patient starts to smoke. That patient might be some kind of exception, but thi
