This is fake news, and just shows how Winsor doesn't know anything about nuclear power plants. Nuclear has NEVER been cheap. Even China, with its lax safety regulations, prefers to build coal power plants (hi Brent!) and solar (uh oh) than Nuclear power plants. Saves him from thinking, as over-simplifying it to "these woke snowflakes made nuclear expensive" is easy on the ol' brain. And his anecdote from the 70s gives him that nice warm feeling that he's superior to those "bright eyed, bushy tailed Liberal Arts types". Predictable, though - look what a 4-year old article says:
- Today

Maybe the filter will media degrade meaningfully over the study period, for that matter even the staples that hold the degrading elastic bands will rust. I still think those protections are small compared to how wearing one keeps people at a distance and stops all totally gross hand shaking. Those I think are the major benefits.
-
Winsor's got a point here - that is exactly why the liberal Supreme Court overturned Roe V Wade after all, it just didn't go far enough for them! What a great example of liberal extremism he has found there. While he's always had some overly simplistic and reactionary views I am genuinely surprised that Winsor has become the single most toxic contributor here.

She didn't engage in argumentum ad hominem - you did.

You're mistaken. The materials and the elastic bands used in the mask can degrade over time, making the mask's ability to filter out particles decrease as it ages. The truth is expired N95 masks may still provide some level of protection, but the mask's ability to protect is greatly reduced as the filter media becomes clogged with particulate, the mask's elastic bands may lose their elasticity, making it less secure on the face and less effective at preventing the inhalation of harmful particles. And so, it is highly recommended that you just discard them once they reach that date. That is all - it's your choice Mr. Cain.

The expiry is for certification purposes, and does not relate to functionality. If you have 10 year old N95s, odds are they will still pass relevant tests.

If you dispute the stance of the videos, fine. I am impressed that the data regarding Tavistock were laid out in a rather coherent fashion FWIW, a social liberal/fiscal conservative is viewed by 'progressives' as a right wing reactionary, and someone who is indifferent to race or sex from a employment or political standpoint is similarly excoriated. I call bullshit. In the '70s the bright eyed, bushy tailed Liberal Arts types in Boston/Cambridge were hell bent on stopping nuclear power by shrill demonstrations, breaking through fences, chaining themselves to things and whatnot. When I pointed out that they came across to voters as malevolent morons on screen, and thus largely invalidated what were otherwise legitimate concerns, it seemed to be a novel concept. I had to explain that the plants were built to turn a profit, and that ensuring that nuke plants were a money pit would guarantee that NOBODY would build the next one. Strangely enough, being buried in very expensive paperwork increased the cost of a nuke plant tenfold, and construction of new plants came to a screeching halt. The key to halting nuke plants wasn't people on screen behaving as equally frantic and feeble minded, it was people in three piece suits with briefcases ensuring that it was unprofitable. A real issue with today's 'liberals' is the assumption that there are only two positions on any issue. You are either in favor of bringing murder charges for a miscarriage or are fine with partial birth abortions. To point out that the German approach where it is abortion before 15 weeks gestation IIRC, and falls under another category thereafter, seems to work falls on deaf ears. Living and working with people of all persuasions without making a big deal about it is characterized as intolerant, where failing to celebrate ethnic and sexual diversity is unacceptable. To treat people by the content of their character instead of the color of their skin or who they sleep with is met with horror, so Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. would be seen as spouting right wing ideology. It's hard to take such nonsense seriously, and Poe's law comes into play. The videos are a useful for a reality check. It is fallacious to assume that if one side is wrong the other must be right (hint: in general, the extremes of both sides are equally repellent). You are young, but I can still recall when 'liberal' was generally moderate and did not imply hard core Marxism. Hearing out contrary positions and trying to understand them without actually agreeing with them was the goal. Now it is considered unacceptable to allowing someone from a differing stance to speak. Just because I am willing to hear someone out does not mean I support their position, quite the contrary. When I read the Koran or Mein Kampf or the Communist Manifesto I did not do so with the intent of adopting the particular ideology, but wanted some enlightenment regarding those who adhered to the principles therein. In each case I was left with the conviction that followers of any of these were pathologically mentally ill.. Getting back to your complaint, videos can be quite useful. If you have a point to make regarding their content, fine, If you are stuck on Argumentum ad Hominem, either Circumstantial or Abusive, your point is moot. BSBD, Winsor

I have the N95's and I'm guessing they'll be just as effective at 10 years as ten days. But none of that matters to me, I'm just happy I'll get to wear a mask into the bank again.

Ok, my mistake. This firm didn't do the audits before the IPO. They were retained after the stock offering. And then were barred from doing business. -
