From our brother Anons in France:

Didier Raoult, Director of the University Hospitals Institute of Mediterranean Infections, testified to the French Senate that:

When you tell people that they are going to die, sections of the brain shut down; this is called the nocebo effect. When this is told to them every evening on TV, they believe it, the nocebo effect, and this phenomenon is radiologically visible.

"Quand vous dites aux gens qu'ils vont mourir, on voit les zones qui s'éteignent dans le cerveau, ça s'appelle l'effet nocebo. Quand on dit ça tous les soirs à la télé, on crée l'effet nocebo, qui est visible radiologiquement"

The sun was like that last evening in Western PA as well. Don't usually see that unless it's very humid and a storm is coming, but neither is happening.

Perhaps sheepdogs and sheep are born with different brains. We anons are, from birth, reluctant to take anyone's word on authority. The 90% of people who are sheep have brains that make them followers, accept authority without question.

That makes sense from an evolutionary perspective - a society cannot last long if everyone is a sheep, or if everyone is an independent leader. The rule of thumb is that human behavior is divided into 10%/90%. You can see this phenomenon in every area of human activity - ten percent are not normal (in relative terms). So it takes one leader for every 9 sheep - you can see this in military squads, e.g. One squad leader, 9-10 soldiers under him.

Whether that difference is a physical one, biochemical, or culturally induced is the question.

Does anyone find it odd that Guam has more sealed Federal cases than the Northern District of Illinois (includes Chicago)?

Sauce on that?

If true, it goes to prove my point -

not really. I've simply wondered all my life why and how things work, trying to make sense of the world. I've never seen myself as having a power to "change the world" - a phrase I detest when it's laid on kids.

I don't want to set the world on fire, I just want to set - a phrase I picked up from my very intelligent grandfather who made a great life for his family of ten with just an eighth grade education and hard work.
