Still Believe That Diseases Are More Easily Transmitted On Board Of Aircraft?

> “This is not true.” So say KLM in the above 2min safety promo clip. Who knew about HEPA filters? Not that any of us can take advantage of such glorious tech as I blog this right now. All flights grounded. Pretty much every place. Even where leaders govern by

Presentation Persuasion via Troy Andrews

Here’s a ten 10 minute slot from Nudgestock 2020. A now annual behavioural economics/science gathering. This year, as have so many ‘festivals’, gone global and online-only.

Only this time, ‘wrong’ predictions which plunge a country into their needless #lockdown2. The kicker is, that imminent death guesses were reduced. By quite the chunk. From 1500 a day to 1000. The original therefore

Attenborough Witness Statement

Filming the devastating drabness from the uninhabitable Chernobyl of the day. Which sadly brings perhaps the only misstep of the whole
