It's hard to do an apples-to-apples comparison, because as far as I understand it, for every $25 in your Yotta account, you get to play a ticket every week until you withdraw. Whereas with the lottery, you obviously pay for the ticket and get to play once.

Obviously imprisoning anyone who gets a dui would be an overreaction

Is it? I mean, certainly we need to rule out false positives, like when they test a driver for weed and it determines the driver was high because he smoked a joint days ago. But driving drunk or high is a really dumb thing to do, and people shouldn't do it.

I dunno, I have to think more about it. I hate over-prosecuting and filling the jails because they're there, but I also think there are still people who don't take drinking and driving seriously, even though we've come a long way since the '70s.

Besides friends and family, what did you miss most about Earth when you were in space?

This is a great question, and I hope OP answers. Just my two cents:

I think the influence of a book like this, at least in the best case, extends far beyond just the individuals who read it. If the book is well-written, people who are interested in the pursuit of truth, fairness, and justice will read it and arm themselves with ways of both seeing through disinformation when it is presented to them, as well as ways of promoting good information when they speak to others.

If the book only addresses how to recognize disinformation, but falls short on how to reach others with quality information, it will not be a very useful book, in my eyes.

We are of one mind, my spacefaring friend
