  • Tom and Warren, we’ll done

    Charlotte Howard however, what does she add to the show? Who is behind Ms Howard’s career? Ms Howard missed the whole energy sector dominance of the past 3 years as energy corespondent she placed readers of The Economist in a lagging position. Shame on you for keeping her on and spreading her poor performance to other programs.

What was the point of doing an intro transition only then to be left explain what might happen from the present stand point. Either commit to being ‘in’ 2042 or try a different intro. Feels weird and simplistic let explained

  • Kosher industrial meat

    John Fazman, I’m not in any way a religious Jew but from my experience with kosher laws if a product is synthetic and nothing unkosher came into contact with the product during or in its production there isn’t a kosher problem.
