This doesn't surprise me; both because there have been some pretty high profile liberal changes in recent years, but importantly, because a large part of the conservative ideology is predicated on the idea that liberal change is occurring and must be opposed. You'd be hard pressed to find many conservatives that would agree that the US is moving to the right. Instead, it's more common to say that it NEEDS TO move further right.

Nope. Most I've talked to, including virologists, are in the NOT camp. This is because virions are not active outside the cell; they cannot change anything about themselves, and rely on the cell host's systems to reproduce and perform lifelike functions.

Because, aside from everything else, getting BACK from the surface of Mars would be prohibitively expensive and dangerous. Twice the radiation or more for the astronauts involved, an exponentially bigger amount of rocket and equipment needed, not to mention supplies and so forth. It's simply not feasible to bring even one of the small probes back from the surface of Mars, much less a manned spacecraft.

Hey there from Missouri! I love seeing the pole community getting some love on Reddit!

Internal pole question for you: what's your opinion on the recent PSO levelling changes? I feel like swapping releases around and getting rid of the "sandbaggy" Ayesha moves will be a much needed shift, but I'd love to hear your thoughts!
