Is it cold in here?:
JimC has to be the one to answer that but I read it as "no distinction", as making an argument that May's situation is natural cause and effect just like tooth decay.
Tova:
I just don't see how the statement, "Your mistakes will always haunt you to a greater or lesser extent" (which I happen to agree with) supports that point, or contradicts the idea that there is a distinction between natural consequences and unnecessarily imposed ones (which I also agree with).

--- Quote from: sitnspin on 30 Sep 2018, 23:12 ---There have been people at various stages in history who decried writing things down at all saying it eroded our ability to remember things and made us intellectually lazy. With the advent of the internet and how easy it is to look something up immediately when you are curious and then instantly forget it again cos you don't need to remember, I can kind of see their point.
--- End quote ---
The ability to store information beyond the capability of human brains made it possible to stockpile more knowledge than a single human could possibly hold.
Nowadays it's more important to know how to find what you need, and how to interpret information you can't or don't need to remember.
This all, of course, doesn't apply to basic knowledge, and a certain kind of people tries to justify being dumb as "I can look it up anytime I want!"

Haven't seen Winslow in a while...or did he go with Hannalor? I feel like i'm forgetting something.
Mr_Rose:
All of Hannelore’s “e”’s, apparently.
But yeah, Winslow is on Hanners’ road trip too.
