Putting the name of this imperious disease in the title of my homily places a weighty responsibility on me. Who am I to attempt to put forth relevant information and sensible opinions on this topic, the mere mention of which makes most normal folk distinctly uneasy? But I probably pay more attention to […]
Gumshoe readers wanna know: What’s a “Liberty Voucher?” And you can see why — inspired by the success of the ads that tease us about “Freedom Checks” or “Trump Bonus Checks”, this one from Nilus Mattive is all about getting your attention with the idea that those who don’t have enough cash flow to retire […]

Everybody’s got to deviate from the norm. —Rush John Galsworthy wrote that the beginning and endings of human undertakings are untidy. It was never more so than in the early days of HCV, a mere 20 years ago, when a plague first called “non-A non-B hepatitis” began vexing people, progressively scarring their livers and behaving […]

What’s the commonest reason for admission to hospital of people 65 and over? Mull that question, as it provides context. Think of people you know. At least one probably has this condition. It’s not diabetes. It’s not heart attacks. And it is not infectious. But it kills and lots of people have it. Part II […]
