And so Calgary has decided - finally - to remove the fluoride - the added, additional fluoride - from the water supply. Which is a good thing, although I'm not such an expert that I can pretend to know what all the adverse effects of it are. But there's plenty of fluoride in my toothpaste, which is enough..
The curious thing about fluoride, though, and the people who argue vehemently against it's use - is that it seems to be something of a "Gateway" conspiracy theory. The government is fluoridating our water supply to control our minds/make us dumb/keep us sick, and from here the conversation inevitably leads to contrails and chemtrails, the Illuminati, One World Government, and the Alien Hybridization program. Which shouldn't discredit the fact that anything added to ones water without clear and tangible proof of it's benefit shouldn't be done, but somehow it does...

And we wonder where they've been eating the past year - McDonald's? Wendy's? For the very, very regulars we make room, keep a few tables in reserve for those who will expect we have thought ahead for them, we're good that way, but for the general public we've been closed a week.
Sort of fixed ear

Out of the blue today the ear began working again. Much as I expected to happen. Only one slight complication - to hear out of the left ear I have to breath in and pop my ears - which deafens the right ear. Release the pressure and I'm deaf in the left ear, but can hear fine in the right. I'm sure that by tomorrow it will be all sorted out...
