Of your composition? You're really a talented guy, man!
The first one is going to be a Mozart piece, then maybe my own composition, then Bach, Scarlatti, Chopin, and Beethoven.
When you've looked death in the eye, you want to just get straight to the good stuff, the immortal stuff.

I'm actually used to working from home and I'm an introvert, so I shouldn't really be affected by this, but I found that even I will get a bit stir-crazy not being able to hang out with friends or go teach class for weeks on end. I think it's mostly because I really prefer to talk to people face-to-face and e-mail and phone (or even a webcam) just aren't cutting it. Plus teaching over the internet kind of sucks.

Hey everybody, Trump has come up with a cure-all for all those who are infected with COVID-19! His 'cure' was so profound, so very well-articulated and so ground-breaking that the attending William Bryan, a scientist at the Department of Homeland Security and Dr. Deborah Birx, one of the leading scientific experts on the task force, were virtually speechless and spellbound by Trump's grasp and knowledge in regards to treating and even curing the coronavirus!! WE'RE SAVED!!!!
'“Supposing we hit the body with a tremendous — whether it's ultraviolet or just very powerful light. And I think you said that hasn't been checked, but we're going to test it,” Trump said. “And then I said, supposing you brought the light inside the body, either through the skin or some other way.”' '“And then I see the disinfectant where it knocks it out in a minute, one minute. And is there a way we can do something like that, by injection inside or almost a cleaning? Because you see it gets in the lungs and does a tremendous number on the lungs,” Trump continued.'Omg. Absolutely
ZERO props to scientist Bryan and Dr. Birx for not telling that ignorant orange baboon outright that his ideas/suggestions will kill people. Get ready, you just
know we'll be reading about idiotic Trump supporters who injected bleach or Pine Sol into their veins or died from over-exposure to the sun (i.e., french-fried themselves). I feel like I just stepped into the Twilight Zone, ffs.
'“I would like you to speak to the medical doctors to see if there's any way that you can apply light and heat to cure, you know? If you could, and maybe you can, maybe you can't,” Trump said. “Again, I say, maybe you can, maybe you can't. I'm not a doctor, but I'm like a person who has a good — you know what.”'Ladies and gentlemen, the President of the United States.
You just can't make this shit up. *smh*
P.S. We're all gonna die.(

Oh! Wow! Awesome! Don't know what to say... :eek:
But I assume the man knows what he's talking about. He's tanned year long and surely has a great knowledge about UV lights... :cool::cool:
Be confident. :joke:

Having said that, I did have a go at making my own ginger beer last week. Works a treat!
Don't do what I did and leave it in a warm insulated spot in the sun for 6 hours and end up with a fermented tasting mess.
And I take it that you used the water you have delivered to your door? :p

Yeah, hence the reason why hospitals use powerful UV lamps in their wards. The problem with claiming it's a potential cure for Coronavirus is...
A. Exposure to a UV light powerful enough to scour any external instances of Coronavirus will greatly increase your risk of skin cancer, and...
B. It doesn't do shit against the virus internally, since UV light can't penetrate skin. So it only works on killing what's on your skin, which you'll end up shedding again later if you're still sick and actively contageous.
So it's a fine disinfectant, but entirely useless for people other than as a short term scouring.

did you even bother watching the video? or is the TDS strong enough among you guys that you have all the answers ?

High explosives will destroy the virus, too.

(
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/aytu-bioscience-signs-exclusive-global-120000824.html) It's shown promise as a therapy, but it's still a ways off from being massively deployed.
The question is, is this tech what Trump meant when he was talking about UV radiation killing the virus, or is this a post hoc attempt to justify his stupid spitballing by his fan base who just happened to run across this while searching Google?
After all, he did also suggest mainlining disinfectants as well.
