Doctor who (2005) s01e07 - Kronkburgers on Satellite 5 in the opening scenes.

The first I thought of was Dead Horse, Alaska. Permanent population 25 - 50, I understand.

I really can't recall where I first heard of it though.

I have probably heard of a few other odd ones like this.

This was a criticism that the Nazis used against liberal democracies. They saw this as a fatal weakness and used it as a justification for keeping in power themselves, once they had achieved it.

Various dictators have said much the same as well.

However, looking at the track record of democracies vs dictatorships or single party states, I think that the data will show that pluralist democracies typically last longer.

Do you really find it that baffling that people are choosing to provide help and advice in a setting that has millions of active users rather than a setting that has some thousands?

For complicated reasons over which we have had very little control, we have had to move house 3 times in the last 5 years.

In April of this year, thoigh, we finally found somewhere that we both really love and which should be pretty much permanent. I am very happy about that.

Awkward because encephalitis is caused by HIV.

From the NHS website:

Encephalitis is most often due to a virus, such as:

• herpes simplex viruses, which cause cold sores (this is the most common cause of encephalitis)
• the varicella zoster virus, which causes chickenpox and shingles
• measles, mumps and rubella viruses
• viruses spread by animals, such as tick-borne encephalitis, Japanese encephalitis, rabies (and possibly Zika virus)

Encephalitis caused by a virus is known as "viral encephalitis". In rare cases, encephalitis is caused by bacteria, fungi or parasites.

As the article says:

this is the first occurrence of a missile successfully intercepting an incoming missile from an adversary in space

My emphasis.

It would depend on the setting, I'd think.

In an SF setting, then maybe: it could be the chemical qualities of blood that they need.

In a fantasy setting, then probably not: what they need is life taken from another. Blood is simply the material component of that life force.

It is the Federation's we do not discuss it with outsiders thing. It confuses time travelling Klingons.

Well, by a convenient coincidence phasing out continued human existence is beginning to look like an increasingly realistic alternative, so that's OK then.
