For Himmy

[Scarlet Pimpernel]

Maybe the French are better

Completely unrelated issue, for which I apologise.
The kiosks for reclaiming VAT on purchases (over €175) are now ready in Eurostar terminals in Paris. Obviously, they will not be in operation until Jan 1st 2021. They will be for non-EU citizens reclaiming TVA paid in France, and for EU citizens claiming VAT paid in UK.

They used to be called Pablo kiosks, when they were in airports. There is information available on the web for how to use them, and where they are located, (although this may not be up-to-date)

We were initially comparing a society with a preponderance of single person households to a society with a preponderance of multi-generational households, given the same size of population in both cases.
Hypothetical scenarios purely for academic discussion.


I fully agree, there is no data to support the assumption that multi-generational families are more, or less likely to facilitate the spread of coronavirus.
But that doesn't mean that we can't apply logic, known behaviour, sound reasoning and probability to arrive at a better educated guess, rather than one arrived at through preconceived conjecture.

Not conjecture at all.
Scientific opinion of an expert below.

However, the report notes that large family households and multigenerational living increases the risk of the virus spreading. My PhD research has demonstrated

We've already done that one. You posted it a few days ago. See below.
They are not an expert, it's absolutely nothing to do with Leicester Uni, and clearly US mayors are just as likely to suffer prejudicial, preconceived conjecture as you are.
They present no data, no argument, no logic, no reasoning for their assumption, just like you.

Yes, ceres, my sincere apologies. I had realised my mistake, and I had corrected my original comment.
It was Vinty who posted, ( and re-posted) that article.

You know, if I was a little suspicious of your antics, i would suspect that you intentionally tried to pass off the article in a Miami newspaper as a genuine piece of research by a Leicester Uni Teaching Fellow.
In addition your supposed quote does not contain the words that you used. If it does, kindly highlight where it does, because I can't find it.

Why would I suspect that you tried to pass off a newspaper article as genuine research? Just take a look at your link, dressed up as a genuine piece of research!

I think that illustrates a willingness to try deception, as well as prejudicial, preconceived conjectures.

No. It doesn't. It illustrates an error in posting a link. Pay attention to the author.

It's not my link, it's Vinty's. I've not read it. I've posted it to halt Himmy's absurd accusations.

And you wonder why people think you're a tosser.

Im sure Himmie is a decent person really, you just dont give him a chance

I himies linguistic wriggling quite amusing,although I rarely am able to fathom any meaning out of it.

Really? Then I think your decent person radar is off-kilter! He just accused someone of deliberately deceiving, being prejudice for simply making a mistake on links! That's a sign of a true gent that... not.

And no worries over finding any meaning out of Himmy's posts, as there's very little!
