Watch that enormous elephant you're mostly ignoring go on the rampage soon, maybe Archived Message Posted by Thomas Newfield on September 18, 2020, 7:34 pm, in reply to "4,322 new Covid 19 cases notified today" amid a lot of tutting from the Protectors of the People. Please no rubbish about "arithmetric" vs exponential increase: exponential increase is normal and it's exponential until it's not. Such statistical games have nothing to do with the real world and have no predictive value. Numbers clearly unreliable. Guess what? It's getting colder and deaths increase. Only the comfortable, the bored, thrill seekers and autistic types are in to this nonsense. Threat of further dictatorial measures (in the Roman sense), unjustified by facts, supported by heroic and most-compassionate lefties; opposed by most, I'm guessing, in practice if not in theory. The spectacle of the self-appointed guardians of popular interest opposing passionate popular resistance approaches like a great old gag: you know the punchline and can't stop laughing as you see it coming.
