This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Well, you did but it's not a big deal by jt

it was advice you were giving in good faith to another poster about his kids. Kind of a cheap shot on my part to point it out, but I was just making the overall point that we still don't know.

We certainly agree that it isn't going well. I don't have the solution, but I continue to preach patience as we aren't aware of what's going on behind the scenes (though some certainly think that they are). I agree that time is running out, but I'm not sure that waiting until January is going to help anything. Without getting into the science of the whole thing, people that I've spoken with in the medical field aren't super confident that a vaccine is ever really going to be super effective and the idea that it would be ready to go in January is super optimistic.

Time is running out and it doesn't look good. We agree there to be certain. We also likely both agree that waivers aren't going to cut it.
