Thank you, ITN. And I have found you to be polite, informative and more than generous in putting up with my ignorance.

I am sure, over time, with you help, I will learn more and be less burdensome.

Thank you. It's a pleasure to find someone here that is willing to learn. I hope I can put things in a form that you can understand clearly. Remember, there are really no dumb questions.

Anyone can learn, if they want to.

Occam's razor, also spelled Ockham's razor, also called law of economy or law of parsimony, principle stated by the Scholastic philosopher William of Ockham (1285–1347/49) that pluralitas non est ponenda sine necessitate, "plurality should not be posited without necessity." The principle gives precedence to simplicity: of two competing theories, the simpler explanation of an entity is to be preferred. The principle is also expressed as "Entities are not to be multiplied beyond necessity."

The principle was, in fact, invoked before Ockham by Durandus of Saint-Pourçain, a French Dominican theologian and philosopher of dubious orthodoxy, who used it to explain that abstraction is the apprehension of some real entity, such as an Aristotelian cognitive species, an active intellect, or a disposition, all of which he spurned as unnecessary. Likewise, in science, Nicole d'Oresme, a 14th-century French physicist, invoked the law of economy, as did Galileo later, in defending the simplest hypothesis of the heavens. Other later scientists stated similar simplifying laws and principles.

Occam's razor is not, however, science.

Well, according to the chart, I'm definitely not an imbecile since I can do work requiring reasoning and judgement (like keeping track of patrons checks at the diner).

So, maybe I'm a moron, but the chart doesn't say if I'm high functioning or not.

Help, we need a new chart!

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa good one, but he has never actually had a job and I calculate that you are just pretending to work in a diner to hide your actual profession.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I've heard that one as well!

I've also heard this question asked by a guy waiting to board a cruise ship:
"Has this ship ever sunk?"

The cruise director's answer was equally hilarious and given in straight deadpan:
"Yeah. We dragged 'er up by the stern just last week. You'll find your cabin freshly washed."

Have you ever heard an entire dock full of people laughing?

The last truckstop diner I ate at had an amazing waitress. The place was packed, and she handled that whole room of truckers by herself. Me and my buddy went in there to order breakfast. Being used to other restaurants, he went to wash up. The meal was on the table before he got back. When she came around to refill the drinks, he remarked, "Gee, that was fast!". She replied, "Yeah. I'm bigger than the cook."

My point? My context was dumb questions when trying to learn something. Even dumb questions from someone that should know better are good for humor. We could certainly use a lot of that these days!

In other words, don't be afraid to ask a question. I won't judge you on the quality of the question.

I only remind people that ask the same question over and over mindlessly, even though it's already been answered. You will see me use the acronym RQAA for that (Repetitive Question Already Answered).

Good place for one! Keeps ya busy! Lots of people to meet too! I imagine you've met all kinds of truckers too, everything from pretty smart guys and gals to some that were dumber than the hogs they were hauling.

I think better wording would be "You atheists are so full of you (me)." Can you think of anyone better of which for atheists to be full?

But you're on the right track. Were you thinking of worshiping me? I get many such offers but I have to advise against it. I think it would be simpler for you to keep the religion you have and to focus on that. I'm really bad at keeping up with email and at answering prayers. The deity you have currently is one of the better ones and usually gets really good mileage. I hear your religion comes with an excellent retirement package so don't throw that away.

Quite a distance actually (1540 miles), and over some of the most rugged terrain on Earth, through some of the worst weather (low clouds and rain almost continuously) along the route, which is an international route.

Nah. Denali isn't in my backyard at all. We do have Mt Rainier though (Mt Tahoma). It's some 14000 ft high. It's also an active volcano. Most of the time it just steams a bit if at all. It looks remarkably like an ice cream sundae on a clear day. All you need is the cherry on top.

Mt Rainier as seen from the water just off Discovery Park

This is looking across Elliot Bay (salt water). The bridge you see there is the West Seattle bridge, and the idle cranes from the Port of Seattle (now largely shut down) are in the center. Downtown Seattle is off to the left, out of frame and behind the bluff on the left side of this image.

Mt. St. Helens started like that... I lived on the side of Mt. Hood (Oregon) when the top half blew off in 1980... We had to use snow shovels to clean up ash. It was kind of weird. We knew it was going to blow anytime (days), but we all just sort of filed out of class, and went out to watch. There was no announcement. I was in electronics shop class, think the teacher was on a coffee break... But, most of the other shop classess did what we did. There were a lot of students of staff back there. Just a big, grey cloud, kept growing, slow motion.

Nah. Denali isn't in my backyard at all. We do have Mt Rainier though (Mt Tahoma). It's some 14000 ft high. It's also an active volcano. Most of the time it just steams a bit if at all. It looks remarkably like an ice cream sundae on a clear day. All you need is the cherry on top.

Mt Rainier as seen from the water just off Discovery Park

This is looking across Elliot Bay (salt water). The bridge you see there is the West Seattle bridge, and the idle cranes from the Port of Seattle (now largely shut down) are in the center. Downtown Seattle is off to the left, out of frame and behind the bluff on the left side of this image.

Oh wow, that's a beautiful looking mountain!

Mt. St. Helens started like that... I lived on the side of Mt. Hood (Oregon) when the top half blew off in 1980... We had to use snow shovels to clean up ash. It was kind of weird. We knew it was going to blow anytime (days), but we all just sort of filed out of class, and went out to watch. There was no announcement. I was in electronics shop class, think the teacher was on a coffee break... But, most of the other shop classess did what we did. There were a lot of students of staff back there. Just a big, grey cloud, kept growing, slow motion.


I lived in Olympia when St Helens blew. The civil defense guys were handing out masks. I got an extra one for a friend of mine that I knew slept during the day. We went over to his place and knocked on his door.

Still groggy from waking up, the first thing he sees is this fine white ash sifting out of the sky and covering the ground, and these two friends of his standing there wearing masks and holding one out to him. The first words out of his mouth were, "Did we get nuked?".



St Helens was a very pretty mountain. It looks like a broken tooth now. Vegetation returned quickly, and some trees are getting re-established now. When the lahar reached Longview, they converted it into a dike against the Columbia river.

Mt Rainier seems to have quite a few cracks in it that allow pressure to vent instead of build up. It's must larger than St Helens, but if it erupts, it will effectively wipe out large parts of Tacoma and Seattle (especially the Kent and Tukwila valley) with the lahar. All that area is built on the previous lahar that flowed through that valley from Mt Rainier.

The bigger danger to the region is actually earthquake. The wet side of the PNW sits on a microplate caught like a gear between the Pacific plate and the Continental plate. As the Pacific plate grinds northward, our microplate turns under the Cascades, powering the volcanic activity all up and down the Cascade range.

Like any plate, it sticks. When it releases, a strong surface earthquake can result.

Boeing used to use heavy metal desks. It is said that anytime one of these is moved, the Earth's axis shifts and we get an Earthquake.



Mt Baker, as seen from Bellingham (the town in the image)

This volcano is much more active, putting out steam fairly regularly. There is a ski area on this mountain, and the snow is sometimes quite gritty from ash. It's also venting now, and not building up pressure like St Helens did.

From volcanic eruptions to Boeing using heavy desks that shift the Earths axis.

There was only one Unabomber, the name given by the FBI to the investigation of a bomber that mailed packages to folks in technology related industries. Finally identified as Ted Kaczynski (now serving time), his bombing spree killed 3 and injured 23 people.

Ted was a math wiz and even went to Harvard, before rejecting the world and going to live off grid in a cabin. There he developed his anarchistic view, and blamed what he saw as destruction of nature on industrialists and technology. This is where he targeted his bombing campaign.

At one point he published a manifesto (in Penthouse Magazine) detailing why he conducted the bombing campaign, which covered States all across the country.

The bombs themselves had a couple of unique characteristics about them. Ted tended to include some material that was 'nature oriented' such as a wooden case or some part depending on a piece of wood, and usually the letters 'FC' were inscribed on some parts of the bomb. Ted said this stood for 'Freedom Club'.

In prison he became friends with other bombers, including Timothy McVeigh (at least until McVeigh's execution), the Oklahoma City bomber (a truck bomb); and Ramzi Yousef, the World Trade Center bomber (a truck bomb).

He is also known as the 'Junkyard Bomber' since his packages were made out of bits of scrap, and the 'Zodiac Bomber' so named for all the bombs he mailed or delivered to California.

The FBI finally caught up to him at his isolated cabin in Montana.

Yes they did, but you have blinders on because you are a shit fed zombie.

President Trump delayed on Thursday evening the release of thousands of pages of classified documents related to the John F. Kennedy assassination, bowing to pressure from the CIA, FBI and other federal agencies (The Military) still seeking to keep some final secrets about the nearly 54-year-old investigation.

The president allowed the immediate release of 2,800 records by the National Archives, following a last-minute scramble to meet a 25-year legal deadline. After lobbying by national security officials, the remaining documents will be reviewed during a 180-day period.

In a memo released by the White House, Trump said: "I am ordering today that the veil finally be lifted. At the same time, executive departments and agencies have proposed to me that certain information should continue to be redacted because of national security, law enforcement, and foreign affairs concerns. I have no choice — today — but to accept those redactions rather than allow potentially irreversible harm to our nation's security."

But you stay there in the cubicle pretending that you are free like me
