@ Dolphin: I don't trust the medical profession 100% either, but the question is, why do you distrust this particular thing about HPV & cancer? How much of a scientific consensus is there? I do not think that the majority of scientists are necessarily either right or wrong, but I don't think these guys are useless, either, and if there's a general consensus, I'll buy it, unless & until I have a specific reason for not doing so - and since I am not such a scientist I am not really in a position to come up with a better scientific analysis, though I might be able to handle one based on imputed economic or political interests. My guess is that you're not a scientist either, but I may be wrong; or maybe you've got some other kind of analysis that is reliable?
@ dolphin: Yeah, I too am in favor of the real world, and I'm not being satirical, despite the fact that I experienced confusions about reality lately, what with all the virtuality... where to draw lines?
I don't notice any lack of singles at the places I go, and I do notice a variety of languages, including English. Not sure what kind of 'events' might be necessary.
Or even cash incentives? I know of a small charity that provides parents with such. Evidence exists that this works.
Fact is, there are sometimes small hidden costs in the 'free' elementary and middle school state education, which seem trivial unless you're really poor. Some people are really poor.
How about this: tax breaks to those who keep their kids in school? Seems to me this might interest those with no cash more than requirements to pay for schools that, for one reason or another, their kids are not attending.
Not necessarily to disagree with JanJal. Vicar is right that it's nearly impossible to make the 1% socially responsible - anyway, that's my reading of his comment.
I'm not a health foody but the few meals I've had here have been really good and, yeah, I'll be happy to go back alone to sample all the rest of them. It's also not a bad place from which to people-watch the street below.

Posted byJanJal, it is precisely money that the poor do not have.
