If I recall correctly, early on VP Pence was specifically asked why the US was so much worse than countries like Canada with respect to the national Covid stats. He spent his two minutes without even pretending to answer that question. I really wond…
• "The New England Journal of Medicine is at least the third widely respected medical or science journal to call for a change in U.S. leadership."

We thought that she did very well in keeping order, and also thought that part of that was the natural advantage of her voice- perhaps better able to cut through verbal clutter.
Thanks to all for your comments. Back in those days being "in the market" at all was considered to be somewhat adventurous for an ordinary citizen. Some of the IRAs I'm recalling were nothing more than bank savings accounts, which actually paid dece…
I've seen this reluctance to transfer via an old-fashioned check quite a number of times on MFO, and never quite understood the issue. Years ago in transferring IRA accounts between banks, brokerages, and mutual funds we just received a check, endo…

FWIW, I still maintain that there should be a separate, distinct, "Political Discussions" category, and that category should not be included in "Discussions+".
Then no one who did not deliberately choose that category would ever need to see it.

Anna's link is exactly the same as choosing "Fund Discussions" in the "Categories" column at the top left of every page. Nothing new there.
That solution is EXACTLY what so many people here have been pointing out for several YEARS now: If you don't…
With respect to "CecilJK" his profile shows that he Joined in April 2011, since that date has had only 46 visits, 10 comments (the last was in 2017), and started only one discussion: today at 6:30PM.
Let's see, now- 46 visits in nine years, yet "at…
