The EU

Google says the EU requires a notice of cookie use (by Google) and says they have posted a notice. I don't see it. If cookies bother you, go elsewhere. If the EU bothers you, emigrate. If you live outside the EU, don't go there.

The Science Is Settled

And Law Proessor Glenn Reynolds tells us that Hillary is wrong.  Don't you just hate that about science?  In a lot of cases it is never "Settled".  Professor Reynolds was referencing a recent study.
In the African villages that I study in Mali, children fare as well in nuclear families as they do in extended families,” said U-M researcher Beverly Strassmann, professor of anthropology and faculty associate at the U-M Institute for Social Research (ISR). “There’s a naïve belief that villages raise children communally, when in reality children are raised by their own families and their survival depends critically on the survival of their mothers.
The study can be found here.

All that said, when I was growing up, in the 1940s and 50s, there were lots of Mothers in the neighborhood and we pretty much felt free to wander into their homes, and kitchens, as the thought struck us.  Abduction didn't seem to be a concern, but then we travelled in packs.  A different world, not to be seen again in my lifetime in these United States.

Maybe not, but then again old age may play some tricks on you!:)
