  - Well, local government says anyone over 65, but nobody has any vaccine so they're allocating as best they can. Still working on health care workers. -- nm - Meg Jan 22, 15:15 7
    - OK, same here. What's confusing is what does your medical provider have to do with it? I'm signed up with the county. My medical group has nothing to - zunkskunk+ Jan 22, 15:24 6

  - Sorry, I missed that post. Yeah, a producer did a remix of it. I have to say, it's not my taste, but it's interesting. -- nm - pmb Jan 22, 14:28 2
    - I'll add that her next EP does have another somewhat remixed version of Phantom on it that I actually like a little better than the original. - pmb Jan 22, 14:31 1
      - Let me know when that happens. Typically remixes perk my ears quite a bit better than originals. - Qale Jan 22, 16:45

  - Honestly, many of them don't see the difference. They think she's lying and he was telling the truth. -- nm - pmb Jan 22, 13:35 1
    - A lot of low-information people don't see the difference, but I think tons of better educated people, and most federal-level politicians, do. -- nm - mara Jan 22, 13:43
