Can fracking extract gold?
But zinc is already cheaper then the thiol, and you are bound to lose some of that expensive reagent. Overall, this will probably lose money.

Can fracking extract gold?
That's a matter of perspective. You intend to dissolve gold. In fact it will dissolve a lot of metal oxides (zinc, iron etc) So you will use huge amounts of a moderately toxic chemical, mainly to dissolve stuff you don't want. Might still be an improvement on the use of mercury...

Questioning the Basis of Christianity
The Serpent pretty much did say "please eat this". Don't forget that God put the serpent into the garden. Nobody seems to know what He did that.

My analysis is that you just invented the pavement cafe.

I'm sure we all hope that Mr Trump is taking enough of his medication to have a good outcome.

A/C for Room Virus Removal
By what? Also, many or most rooms are only about 10- 15 feet across. Again, that's a matter of wealth, not physics. Yep. You will see people wearing it in clinical situations.

If people sneeze at 100 miles per hour then, to make sure that the particles go up not across, you need an upward velocity near 100 MPH You need that all across the room- because you can't be sure where someone will be standing. Such rooms exist...

I wonder if this discussion has lost focus on the fact that , for much of the world, "air conditioning" means opening the door.

I would put a lot more effort than I should into making the mat slightly bigger each time...

The HEPA filters used in biohazard labs would fix it. The problem is largely the noise from the fans. Bacteria and viruses are particulate. The ones where they don't allow people are probably pretty near sterile for exactly that reason.

What grade 3? Maybe, by way of balance, the media should not turn up to his election gigs.

And his supporters will call it "authoritative" and "strong".

You can do it, but it's not easy. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleanroom The problem is the hurricane you need . A cough can travel as fast as 50 mph and expel almost 3,000 droplets in just one go. Sneezes win though—they can travel up to 100 mph and https://www.lung.org/blog/sneeze-versus-cough

Presumably, his comments on chloroquine, (and mexico paying for the wall etc.) are like his idea that people should try mainlining dettol- just sarcasm.

Why would someone get roasted for asking if we can check if something is true as Macorn is doing?

Trump Connection to Hydroxychloroquine (split from Corona virus general questions mega thread)
The experts are right. But the anecdotal evidence is interesting. The cost (in whatever terms) of doing the trial isn't high. The potential benefits are large. So it's worth doing the test. The costs of what Trump is suggesting are much higher. The benefits (if there are any) are similar. That's the difference between the two approaches. One is reasonable, the other reckless.

But Trump thinks he already knows the answer. That's why he's getting roasted (along with his financial interest)

We now need to add "It was the international Maritime Organisation's fault that we hit the iceberg, so I'm not paying my membership fee".

When Romney's the good guy, you know things are bad. Because he'd be in jail.
