Re: Do you listen to Scott Adams?
I didn’t even know who he was so I had to google him.

I would say once in a great while. I do read his tweets, that’s all I have time for.

Re: Do you listen to Scott Adams?
Ackshully he did say something memorable, that he was officially Leftist, because they are in control and whats the benefit of being of being openly conservative. To wit I might end up communist, watching the far right still push Trump, when he did nothing about lockdown, is a slap in the face.
But. . .maybe we have an inflection point here https://old.reddit.com/r/facepalm/comme ... d/jozqz6g/

Re: Do you listen to Scott Adams?
Know who he is. Did not know he had a Youtube but would not have listened even I knew of their existence. I have so little time budget left for any listening. Lex Fridman is my only must listen and I'm probably at least a month listening to his.
Well, my other must are listening to the five Sunday news shows. Try to listen to them twice each week. At this point, on Friday, I'm only 1.4 times through that goal.

Re: Do you listen to Scott Adams?
Because you had only given us 5 hours before you asked the question? I'd been away from this computer since before you asked the question until now when I duly made my vote. Possible for you to change it so we can see the votes after we cast our own votes? Or, is it too late to do that?

Yikes. Maybe you should try only listening to them once so you have time to consider other perspectives, and see where that takes you.
There ARE definitely other perspectives within those five shows. I listen to them twice because I'm more of a reader than a listener and my mind driffs while listening. So, hopefully, on the second listen I hear what I missed the first time around.
Those ARE the only podcasts I listen without fail on a weekly or even monthly basis.

Yay, the poll is finally visible. I didn’t even notice when i set it up that it was hidden for two weeks.
No wonder I thought no one was voting

Re: Do you listen to Scott Adams?
8 is one of our least participated polls?

I like to end statements with a question mark?

Re: Do you listen to Scott Adams?
I do also. But I do end questions with a question mark.
I was asking you if you agreed with me that with only 8 participants it was one of our least engaged polls? Asking you for confirmation or disagreement.

Re: Do you listen to Scott Adams?
I guess it’s a symptom of a larger phenomenon: the forum is a ghost town.
Re: Do you listen to Scott Adams?
Personally, I prefer a forum with infrequent, well reasoned and thoughtful posts to one with incessant arguments about trivia.....
Of course, frequent, well reasoned posts would be even better!

Hal, did you by any chance play in the movie 2001? Inquiring bots want to know!
