The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Sarah Fortune, Chair of the Department of Immunology and Infectious Diseases at the Harvard Chan School, was ordered to halt her tuberculosis research. Fortune’s lab focuses on the diversity of tuberculosis bacteria and how that contributes to differences in the disease, as well as treatment outcomes. Fortune's NIH contract involves collaborative work by Harvard and multiple other universities across the U.S.

Other scientists at the UMass Chan Medical School who have received stop-work orders are leading groundbreaking research into cancer, ALS, heart disease and more.

How, in the Wide World of Sports <Blazing Saddles reference>, does this make a lick of sense?

Guess Mad King Donald didn't kill enough Americans with his botched mishandling of the Covid-19 pandemic -- gotta' kill him some more.
