The sources you posted, while objectively awful, fail to mention anything about them being "mega-donors" to the Dem party. They're pretty low level scumbags molesting their kids, which unfortunately happens.

When you embellish things with stories like this it does a disservice.

So let's say the recorder is ejected a minute into the plane leaving normal flight...and the flight continues for another several minutes. Isn't that info highly relevant and sought after? Or are you talking seconds before impact that it's ejected? I'm curious how that mechanism works...certainly not a manual process by a terrified flight crew.

I think they meant "what value is it if it doesn't record the actual crash data and is ejected too soon to gather any meaningful evidence?"

I could be wrong though but i think that was their intent.

It was more difficult than it should have been tbh. My wife had a leg up as her aunt had a complete genetic screening a few years befire that flagged it in the family...this allowed my wife to use her paperwork to take to her PCP and get her own test done for it.

Cancer was prevalent on both sides of her family so it was a spectre lurking in her mind her whole adult life. She didn't hesitate as soon as the test came back positive...it was actually quite a relief and has zero regrets. The surgery was fully covered by our insurance as well as the follow up plastic surgery for her replacememt boobs.

This was several years ago though and I believe it's much easier to get tested. I think 23andMe actually has added it to the list of things they can test now too.

I always found this to be the mentality of people that have never been out of Maine...and of those that have, never out of New England. It's just silly to think entire groups of people act a certain way because of imaginary lines on the ground.
