All currencies float against one another, with several exceptions .. and the USD is unique among them ..

1) USD is used in transactions globally .. it IS the WORLD RESERVE CURRENCY.  It moves on an international basis, while it also acts, imho falsely, as US internal currency.  This is a complete mismatch.
2) if OIL price goes up, USD's in higher demand as USD is the currency of settlement.  Similar for other key commodities.
3) several currencies are tightly pegged to USD ..
4) several other currencies are loosely pegged to USD .. their CB's may adjust their relative position to the USD as they deem appropriate.
5) As the USD is the WORLD RESERVE CURRENCY, it allows the US to borrow any amount at will. No other nation has this prerogative.

Frus .. @ Voy down...remember that was one of the reasons we chose to go here.

Yes .. that, and the OTHER reason was many new folks could not register ..
despite many appeals to Brandon & Rudi @ voy, which mostly went unanswered.
We were stuck in limbo land with a core of maybe 30 posters.

I note recently we often have over 100 people posting or reading here ..
Quicktopic was good, but this place is probably better, now that we've learned how to use it properly.
The downside here is the cost of keeping it add-free and paying for ability to post images.

Note on Ratings Symbols .. eg .. like .. dislike .. agree .. disagree .. dumb, etc ..

Anyone using the ratings symbols on posts, if you accidentally invoke one ..
it can be eliminated  .. look for an option to "UNDO RATING" on the lower right corner of the affected post

A perfect testing environment for medical analysis & experimentation.
Would like to see FLCCC protocol tested on half the cruise ships, and whatever else on the other ships.
And while they're at it, test for the impact on O-micrometer and Deltoid variants.

Folks ..

I've just upgraded LSteve to Administrator, which also includes the Moderator function.
I'll also stay on for now in case questions arise, but LSteve assumes the primary Admin role effective immediately.

Now that the board has been operating successfully for about 3 weeks, there is little more to do as Admin. I'm sure there will be occasional calls for a change to this or that, but on the whole, the settings appear to be fine and are generally agreeable to most members.

All .. Thank You again for entrusting me and LSteve with these roles.

In the video, he shows the chemical structure of both IVM and the new Pfizer drug.
One thing that left me nonplussed ... why are there 3 Fluorine attachments to the structure ?
Fluorine is a toxin.
###

and here's the answer .. from a 2013 phys.org paper ..

Fluorine is a common element added to pharmaceuticals because it can increase the drug's selectivity, enable it to dissolve in fats, and decrease the speed at which the drug is metabolized, thus allowing it more time to work. Twenty to thirty percent of drugs contain the element, including some of the most widely prescribed drugs such as well-known antibiotics, anti-inflammatories, anti-depressants, cholesterol-lowering medications, and some inhaled anesthetics.

We have 60 people registered here.
About a THIRD have yet to post.
Some are lurkers, but anyone that WILL POST in future should try it out.
Jump in and get your feet wet, it's really the only way to get to know how this place operates.
Each of you can set your own forum style.
###

ANOTHER Tip.

If you hit the PRINT icon, it will turn ALL posts into black words onto a plain white background.
You can then cut and paste any posts you want to save in WORD or Notepad for your own use.
To return to the forum, just press the "BACK" arrow on your browser.

ALL ... A hearty WELCOME !

Well, here we are, and it's the weekend.

If I may suggest you start your weekend reading from the very start of this forum.

You will see lots of excellent TIPS as to how to do things here, including how to personalise your own viewing style.
Enjoy !

Regards, Tom ...

We already have over 50 posts ..
I think I set it the limit at 100 posts per page, just to see if it would allow that many.
We are on target to test that limit.

Maybe at some stage we'll increase it to 150 or 200, but we don't want page-loading-time to suffer.
There are a LOT of knobs and buttons back-stage that can be tweaked, it'll take weeks for us to learn what they all do ..
