It was a rough flight, but I guess that's what I should have expected.

    So your crash landing in the Gulch was kind of like Dagny's. While I have a background not too much different than John Galt (actually more like Quentin Daniels), I have the Dagny personality (savior complex?) regarding abandoning. I have put too much into a good thing to just see it not succeed.

    Dear Dave/Meerkat,

    If you choose to continue as a high school teacher, please consider directing any future Galts in my direction. For more information, show them

    I work quite hard there at my shrug job, but after this election debacle, I don't know whether it will be for much longer. One of the early outcomes of a Biden presidency will likely be "free college", which will put my institution out of business.

      I'm actually the Founder and Headmaster of a small independent college prep school (grades 6-12). I like to teach when I can (especially history, logic, and economics) but I have a great teaching staff. Some drive 1 1/2 hour each way each day to teach where reason still exists. We graduate no more than 20 seniors each year, so 100% get into college. I know at least a couple are interested in nanotechnology, so I'll check with their advisor which ones are considering FIT.
      Regarding the election, I'm still waiting. Knowing the potential for mail-in fraud, I'm hoping that perhaps the suggestion that there was a sting operation may be true. But with the existing election interference probes, one would think that there must have been some additional surveillance in the works. Maybe catching some current fraud is the last remaining piece of the Durham probe? Although reality is the final arbiter, sometimes it takes a while and a little help to assert itself.
      About 40% of my school's students are F1 international students, and those who come from the socialist and communist countries are stunned by locals who think socialism would work here! They defend Capitalism (and Trump) as fiercely as the rest of us.

        Florida Tech has a high percentage of international students, the highest in the US most years.

        As for vote fraud, I suspect there is some associated with Dominion Voting Systems. They were associated with the vote fraud in Antrim County, Michigan. This is not their first vote fraud situation either. However, proving that it made enough of a difference is a different situation entirely.

          Having seen the video of Sydney Powell, who I believe to be a credible source after all her other exposure of corruption. I think Dominion definitely should be part of the investigation. I think we aren't supposed to post links, but it should be easy to find by the title, Nancy Pelosi's Chief of Staff and Feinstein's Husband Involved With Dominion. Living in Commiefornia all my life, I have grown to really dislike those two.
