I have found that I avoid all of these problems, and several others, by using a wider range 1NT opening, 11-15. Then 1D becomes natural. The wider range NT is managed on the rebids. Another benefit is that the 1NT opening occurs approx 30% of the time causing bidding difficulties for the opponents.

So I looked up the EPA report on air pollution trends https://www.epa.gov/air-trends All of the trends are down except one, and that is still lower than it was in 1980. Don't you think this is good progress?

You are certainly entitled to your opinion.

To me the NYTimes is no longer a credible source of information.

Great to hear from you again! Glad you are still alive. It is not illegal to claim asylum at a port of entry, provided you have made application at the first country you entered and have been denied. It is illegal to cross the border anyplace other than a port of entry. You may still claim asylum, but that does remove the crime of illegal entry. 90% of asylum claims are denied, so if the person is part of that 90%, then they are in the US illegally. At the moment many of those illegal entry claimants are being held in custody in detention centers. If the claimants do not wish to be held in detention centers they have the option of not crossing the border illegally. Since it is their choice to enter illegally, then the primary responsibility for the consequences are theirs. By your logic, since the US is currently one of the more impactful countries in the world, then all of the world's problems are the responsibility of the US. I reject that position. Please provide a link to back up your claim that the US and Canada lead the world in per capita pollution. My understanding is that China and India are, by far, the worst offenders. As for what the US is doing, please see https://www.epa.gov/clean-air-act-overview/progress-cleaning-air-and-improving-peoples-health.

OK, I have more things to say. Hundreds of immigrant children are being held in detention centers because their parents (or third parties who purchased them from their parents) entered the US illegally. Don't you think the primary responsibility for the situation rests with the parents? With regards to water and air pollution, as I read the US has improved conditions in the US during the last few years. Water and air quality are better. The main polluters are Asian countries and the members of the Paris Accords. Shouldn't you be directing your ire at them? With respect to climate change, the contribution of human activity is seriously in question. A recent study released by a Finnish university asserted that human activity contributed very little to recorded temperature change. This research was supported by another recent study in Japan. And finally, you assume Universal Healthcare as a given. And yet several studies have shown that Universal Healthcare would essentially bankrupt the world. And Universal Healthcare has never been an existent condition of humanity, so no one is walking anything back.

Are you not cherry picking?

Seems to me that you are the hater. Certainly most of your posts in this forum seem to come from hate. I am a Trump supporter. However I have not attended any rallies. But from my point of view, Trump has much better policies than the Democracts who currently seem to have nothing. And after 2 years of Trump the economy and working conditions for the populace appear to be much improved. Unemployment is at record lows, wages are rising faster than inflation, stock market is at record highs, trade agreements are being improved for the US. ISIS Caliphate has been eliminated. North Korea is negotiating rather than threatening with nukes. China is negotiating. I certainly don't hate others. Things are just better.

How do you show your CC when playing in the new software?

Yeah, I wondering abut that also.

I wonder if 401ks and pension funds, probably the major shareholders in GM, can captain yachts?

David Duke is racist, I am not familiar with Daily Stormer. But, again, what do they have to do with the subject of Gillum and Desantis?
