The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" 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.

He has zero patience for anything. If it isn't "right now !!", he wanders off in an Alzheimer's daze. Which is why he lies so much. He can't do anything.

You may be right.

And I REALLY hate to say this, but--the board is probably at its best when we attack the ideas but (whatever is within our power) not the people. For example, I try hard (very hard) not to say insulting things about the person who is president of the US, though I'm more than happy to say that certain policies are inane.

Anyway, this is only a general comment about the ideal tone of the boards, nothing about you, or him. Being a non-US person, I have no party affiliation. Bleeding heart capitalist?

* As mentioned, you may of course be right in this instance. Nothing in my post actually contradicts your assertions.
