Can’t read it. Opened on my phone and there are at lost 7 letters per line - communications is split over 3 lines for example. Rather ironic that a letter to a group that is about communication can’t use an appropriate technology to communi

In the billion or so years life has existed on earth, there’s no evidence any species built a nuclear bomb or had large plastic manufacturing or left anything in GEO, all of which we’ve achieved in the last 100 years. Progressing to that st

Business meetings will mean an esta - like America, same as tourism. Work will mean a full blown visa. For each country. Imagine if you were a musician and needed a separate work visa for each US state. Goods like instruments and laptops st
