2) E.g. blockchain arguments"it's a NEW technology, denying it is like denying the early internet". They mistake NEW for a sufficient condition. I walked out of a barber shop in Beirut who wanted to use the electric th. in place of scissors when he said "we use cars not horses" — PolitiTweet.org

2) Doing both North Carolina & North Lebanon this month. North Lebanon is much steeper (w 3000 feet el. hikes) but you can only trek from dawn to late morning. N. Carolina is more humid but has a density of trees allowing permanent shade, allows all day hikes. https://t.co/CZb2uE0aj4 — PolitiTweet.org
