• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Two weeks to flatten the curve

I wonder how many of us baby boomers would be around to ride our Spyders if the polio pandemic of the 1950's had been as politicized as the covid pandemic has?
I also wonder what this short video has to do with the stated goals of this website. Just askin for a friend.

In 'off topic' category it doesn't need to be about Spyders or ryding.

That said, I do wonder what message the O.P. is trying to convey.

At least the sugar cube worked.
 
Re: polio shots. I was in elementary school during the 50's. Many shots were given at the school, (with parental permission). When it was our turn, they lined us up, marched us down the hall to the nurses office, and away we went. :bowdown: I always dreaded "shot" day.

In those days, elementery school was in S. Minneapolis. The Hennepin County General hospital now occupies the block where the school was. Less than 5 miles away was the Sister Elizabeth Kenny Inst. where the polio victims were placed into the "iron lungs." I am glad that vacine worked.

Exactly as remember in our elementary years, I did what my parents thought was best,:lecturef_smilie: and I thank them for not just leaving it up to ME! "G.R.T.S." .:thumbup:Bill
 
I wonder how well the polio 'shots' would have been accepted if the delivery vehicle was something less palatable, like Brussel sprouts...

OMG I can still see in my mind's eye that white sugar cube with the red dot inside of it.

It's in the Off Topic section, where members can discuss any other things they wish to, just so long as they don't break any of the Forum Rules.... and this thread (like every other thread ;) ) is being watched to ensure that doesn't happen, and if it does, then the appropriate action will be taken. :thumbup:

It's the message the video is trying to convey that's important.So many aren't aware of whats actually going on because of the censorship, mass psychosis, coercion, etc that I feel like I'm part of the problem if I don't at least try in a small way to inform all I can.I could fill the forum with pages of evidence on a daily basis to get my point across but obviously I don't. If people are interested they can do their own research and I hope they do because we are at the pointy end of a huge worldwide transformation that will swallow the unprepared.
Not knowing the truth doesn't make you ignorant it's not wanting to that does.
 
Yes.....much the same thing in the ‘50’s here in Canada. Elementary school students lined up, marched into the Principle’s office (just a 4 room school...no full time nurse, just a visiting V.O.N. Nurse) for all our different shots/vaccines. I don’t recall them even getting the parents permission. I think it was an automatic thing, however that was 70 or so years ago, so...........memory and all that crap.

What truth would that be? That we are living in this dystopia and don't know it?
 
Rule 2. Political Posts are NOT allowed on this site. :lecturef_smilie:

Not even if they are referring to the politics of years past. :sour:
