Re: Bob3
Thus spake Bob3 Ex-BFF
"The President proposes to extend the Bush tax cuts for families earning less than $250K for one year. Bob3 devotees will recall that several months ago I predicted a re-elected President and his party would raise taxes on the middle class. Can you see it coming now? How will they pay for all that new spending without taxing you?"

Re: Bob3
And another
"Can't read EA, so don't know about Epiphanies.
Still good to buy gold and silver.
"Too Big to Fail" sounds like political agitprop. In retrospect, everything looks like a plot. In the moment, people are scared, confused, and ignorant. They do the best they can under great pressure.
Been watching O's TV commercials about the millions of jobs he's "created." The commercials don't mention that every day jobs are both created and destroyed. What counts is the net result. There are now fewer people employed than when O took office."
Don't blame me. Direct your abuse to the author.
And, remember, the e-mail link form his profiles works.
If you can't write him, sign him up for some catalogs or newsletters.

They can't aise taxes enough to pay off the national debt in our lifetimes or even in the lifetimes of our great grandchildren. Government spending must also be drastically reduced.

Opinions, so the saying goes, vary. One of my handy reference books is Prosser and Keeton, Torts, 5th Edition, and I find the references for misrepresentation and mistake to indicate a decent way of solving the national debt.
Why so? Because, in my licensed capacity as a registered professional engineer, I observe that the national debt is of the form of both mistake and misrepresentation; and is, under color of law, a statute of frauds matter.

Re: Bob3
PLEASE
Use the E-Mail Link to Bobover3
and encourage his reappearance at the board.
He sits at home with Post Hospitalization Syndrome.
You know, after the glad to be alive is gone and the realization of
loss of income and unpaid bills, reality "hits". Room service just a nurses station away, gone.
Not like "home". Post Hospitalization Syndrome.
Please e-mail him and encourage his participation.

I sincerely hope that Bob3 does what is good for his health.
If that means no political posts then so be it. His health is more important.

While the EA is gentler than a lot of sites, politics here might do bad things for B-3's blood pressure. Even over the aether I can see smoke rising from the ears of some of the members.....

AS much as I'd enjoy the back and forth, if discussing politics is doing bad things to someone, I'll survive without the pleasure.

I'm glad he's out of the hospital; hospitals are not great places to be. Right now he may have more important things to do than argue politics.
Welcome back.

Certainly Bob must care for his health. But I hugely miss him. Trying to demolish his arguments was the most fun I've had in a long time. Without him this place is kind of dull. I loved the impish way he had of provoking us liberals into frothing at our keyboards. I still have fantasies of him rising from his sickbed to gleefully return to the fray, like Charles Laughton in "Witness For the Prosecution."(with Tyrone Power, Marlene Dietrich and directed by my favorite director Billy Wilder, from a book by Agatha Christie)

Re: Bob3
Some neural circuits have been turned off evidenced by the loss of 2 weeks.
It is the difference between the mandatory 6 weeks bed rest after a heart attack
and getting back up as soon as stable. The later produces better results.
Now I imagine he may well be a happier person being a little more brain dead then
before his hospitalization. However, I believe in exposing reality for what it is.
And as MOT's we know what reality is. More troubles.
BTW stroke patients who start physical therapy within hours, even before medical
stabilization have better outcomes.
Convalescence is over rated.
I encourage EA members to send him an E-Mail from his profile.

Re: Bob3
Here's an update on yesterday's surgery and my improved prospects -
The operation on my throat was a great success, which is what I expected of the world renowned Dr. Peak Woo. He not only removed all the "granulation" and swelling in my throat, he also removed the tracheal stenosis. All my local doctors had said the stenosis (hardening and narrowing of the trachea) was forever, or at best that it might be removed at the cost of 2-3 reconstructive surgeries on my throat, with cartilage grafts from ribs, and no guarantee of success. Dr. Woo removed the stenosis without trouble. I guess all it takes is know-how. The vanities of the local doctors wouldn't let them admit that what they couldn't do was easy. I'm lucky to live near NYC with its great doctors.
Also good - I'm already breathing more easily, and the volume of mucous discharges and coughing is noticeably reduced. When healing is complete in about 2 weeks, improvement should be significant.
Dr. Woo kept the same size trach tube for the time. When I see him again in about a week, he may install a smaller size to prepare me for its eventual removal.
I still have to pass the hurdle of a Sleep Study, which I dread. Dr. Woo wants to see that my sleep apnea has lessened from severe to moderate before he removes the tube. I've read about a new apnea treatment called Provent. A small device is inserted in each nostril, and this somehow increases air pressure with much less discomfort than wearing a CPAP mask. I'll research this. Dr. Woo is not familiar, and says I should discuss it with a pulmonologist (the doctors who treat apnea).
