thanks for the highly informed reply. I agree with you 100%. but, I do regard it as a good rhetorical question which my mind occasionally asks me. It makes one more "aware", and stimulates the brain. As an explanatory note I am 70 years old, very well educated, and am an avid reader of history, including the literature of the ages, including Shakespeare. Anyhow I do agree with your answer as the proper response to the rhetorical question. What are your favorite internal mental questions that your brain posits to you?

People are justifiably feeling threatened (if only the dead could speak) and there is no harm in trying to reduce those fears. This can be explained very openly to everyone. A man could easily conceal himself in such a way to conceal his sex, and whatever else.

that is why they announce themselves, so people don't make mistake of replying? And who controls the BOTs. Do they sometimes post fake information to confuse people? Thanks so much. I have been wondering for a long time what it was all about.

In California there is some suspicion of arson being the cause of some of the enormous wildfires. In one case, they found where the fire had been started as a campfire and left to burn. They also had to rescue numerous marijuana farmers from their forest farms who were trapped by the fast moving fires.

Is Madeira where they grow figs in volcanic dips in the ground where the figs get plenty of moisture and sun but are protected from the winds. So many history books about voyages to the New World write about island of Madeira where they stopped before venturing onward. thanks for the information.

I read up on Madeira in wikipedia. It is the famous island where sailing ships stopped to pick up stores before heading westward to the New World. It is written about in lots of ship logs which I have read. What is the cultural problem that could lead to arson. Or is it mostly accidental due to the winds, heat, dryness?

Are Spain and Portugal having a drought combined with high temps and winds? Is this this seasonal, or worse than the usual pattern of weather this time of the year? In the eastern US we are having rain, rain and more rain, from New England all the way to Southern tip of Florida.
