| Hey Trish, there are computers with internet that you can use for free at almost every public library. And yes, you life really should revolve around SFN. Shouldn't everyones? |

Anyway, I think the sum-up is that you are coming from the "through and through liberal” perspective, where smoking in bars is a civil right until it can be proven that such behavior is severely detrimental to non-consenting adults. Fair enough. (Hopefully I've phrased that in a way that is agreeable.)
Well, to tell you the truth I think most liberals would approve of legislation banning smoking from bars. You know, having a well-developed social conscience and approving of progressive public policies and all. So yeah, I may be a liberal but I am also a skeptic. Sometimes my liberalism is over-ruled by the sort of things that cause alarms to go off in a skeptics mind. Bogus studies for example. So no, I don't think my position is based on my liberalism.
And yes, I do favor seat belt laws.

Well, I'll be in Broomfield CO at a draw site, not anywhere near the Main Denver Hub. So I should be fairly safe. I expect to hire on and stay at Quest long enough to get the experience I need to get on at a hospital. If they'll hire me right out of my extern. If it's still available in a week though, I'm going to apply for a position at one of the hospitals, (I probably won't get it for lack of experience), for a phlebotomist to work the lab, ER, and morgue. Could be interesting. Then again, I could be the only one applying for it too, even less likely than my getting hired for the position. |

Well, ok Kil. Yes I like SFN, but I am limited by the bus schedules and my ability to get to and from the library, if it's close enough, I can certainly walk. To work 8 hours today I expended 5 hours on the bus in travel time. If I can cut back on that travel time I'll have the time for the library and SFN, if not, I'll miss you all until I get a real job. |
