The "Beav" turned 74 on June, 2, 2022 (according to IMDB).

No he's not completely dead. No.
But he's not at all well.

Peaceful passage, Tony. Say "Hey" to Clarence for me.

An integral part of the takeover plan. They're ("they're") also counting on the attrition of them olde phartes who remember what it was like before GCA68.*

No actual action requ‏ired, just time.

Calculated in as part of the plan.

*I still remeber the first prototype "4473" in mimeograph form. Don't remember the gun but it was a shop on Arapahoe Avenue in Boulder.

I groused about it to the shop owner, but he said it was the new law, and I filled it out and went home with my purchase. And it was a couple of hours later that it dawned on me: "Hey, that's a *expletive deleted*ing infringement!"

Kinda sneaks up on you, doesn't it?

And each successive infringement becomes normalized as "that's the way things are."

One day the Dow is down, the next it is up, and then the Dow is down again.
