Social Hypocrisy

People should understand, that past inequities cannot negate certain demographics from following laws and rules. And those advocating such doctrines are doing no one any favors.

On the opposite end, those with lots of money and privilege, are not better than anyone else. Your money and status does not make it right for you to behave badly.

Diversity is not just black and white. It's economic, and it's popularity and religious affiliation and so much more.

And finally, if we're so concerned about justice, equality and diversity, why is there so little outrage or publicity about the horrific and continued attacks and violence against Asian Americans? We've replaced the previous instigator-in-chief, but the attacks continue. Often perpetrated by people who would protest loudly if such injustices were directed at them. Why is our society so tolerant of attacks on some but not others? Why the hypocrisy?

However, by the time I was done, my interest in technology, from over 10 years as an IT professional, was thoroughly peaked! Definitely off the "beaten path," in a spruce bog in Northern Minnesota, this site boasts an incredible array of scientific equipment that is supported by an amazing technological infrastructure! There are control sites and some of the chambers have added heat, carbon dioxide, or both. A lot of equipment and experimental testing goes on 24/7, 365 days per year. These guys know their stuff. The 10 chambers are connected ...
