Subj : All PIN Numbers Leaked To : David Smith From : Barry Martin Date : Fri Oct 08 2021 07:40:00 Hi Dave! BM> As for your ADD and that glazed look, we'll just have to start writing BM> more interesting stuff! BM> ...Dave, Dave! Wake up! You're fading! DS> LOL I'm almost keeping up just type slower! :) Seems like that should work! Around a year ago my Mother dictated a document to me so I could correct the phrasings and then send it on. She was surprised I could type so fast -- could faintly hear the tapping of the keypad. She doesn't speak slowly and was talking pretty much conversationally. BM> Sad to read that. The two of us here have had both parts of the Pfizer BM> vaccine, plus the flu shot. Good news is no one we know directly has BM> had COVID, though some quarantined because of contact. DS> I really didn' know many folks first hand last year that got DS> COVID but seems like with this "Delta" varient I've known quite a DS> few. I think a lot has to du with us getting out more (ie DS> football games, etc) Probably. They've always maintained keeping a distance would help slow the spread and masking would help filter away so remove one or both and the chances of contracture increases. Washing hands also helps reduce transmissions. I'll admit to being variable as to the degree of self- protection: my distancing depends on whom I'm around -- family and friends are closer (probably as I know their lifestyle and health), Strangers - please stay away. Shopping - before grabbing a shopping card I'll squirt a bit of hand sanitizer on my hands and wipe it on the handle. BM> to a recessive gene. Soooo back to COVID, a different recessive gene BM> could cause susceptibility or resistance. And that could be to the BM> virus itself, to the vaccine, etc. That little but important detail BM> will probably never be found because who is going to decipher everyone's BM> DNA? DS> I've heard a lot of it has to do with the DNA. Someone mentioned DS> that the vaccines change some of the "markers" (I'm not a doctor DS> and haven't stayed in a Holiday Inn Express in some time so my DS> terminology may not be right) Some folks around here are afraid DS> to take the vaccine because of that. I got the Phiser. Haven't DS> decided if Im gonna do the booster yet. :) Your terminimology is close enough. :) I'm also not sure of the under- the-microscope details but it appears to me we _want_ some changes in DNA/RNA/whatever so as to obtain immunity or at least great resistance to this COVID thing. I know enough an injection isn't going to transform me or anyone else into a dog or a three-eyed fish. Admittedly there can be reactions; heck, people have reactions to food like peanuts. To my thinking it's a matter of which is better: am I better off with or without. As for the booster, my thinking is 'yes'. I sort of think of the COVID vaccine like a flu shot: every year they tweak the flu shot to current year's version. Huh: 'varient'. And other shots for which we get another ('booster'!) readily, pretty much without a second thought: for shingles, tetanus. BM> OK, time to unglaze those eyeballs and push the button! DS> LOL getting a little glazed now I've been wearing my new glasses DS> too long! :P That's just the reflection! Be sure to blink! When one is reading or otherwise concentrating they tend to blink less, and of course less general movement (eye muscles included). Do a 'deep blink': is slow (almost a second) blink and squeeze the eyelids together. Do three-four times. This stimulates the tearing response and so rewest the eyeballs.
