I rarely if ever watch the news but even on the internet, you can't totally avoid headlines. And yes, the media loves going in spurts because Americans are so easy to control vis their phones, the news, the weather news, etc. As in - "shark attack' will be a hot story, you'll get a story daily for 2 weeks....people will be nutty about it.....thenm, boom, somehow there's no shark attack.

The recent airplane issues - -- anyone know - -- are they within the statistical norm, or is there someone new going on?

Sure, partisans can blame it on Trump and FAA cuts. I'm not a partisan robot - so I'm totally open to that being real. Even if it's not related to that, one worry have is that in this culture, a disgruntled employee *might* want to, uh, overcook the burgers just a bit - to make a point.

Any theories or ideas that come from a sane place?
