But otherwise yes, I have to trust Antrophic.

History is why catholics are at 20%. Which is a significant force and a dangerous game to alienate them.

2) Rats cannot be trained to move in a search pattern.

3) Rats have the capacity to detect explosive residue and can apparently be encouraged to do so with food rewards...

4) ...but there is no evidence that rats can respond to explosive residue in a hazardous area reliably.

5) There is no evidence that the method of deployment results in a thorough search of the area.

6) The speed of search sometimes claimed would make thorough search (tiny nose within 10 cms of target) physically impossible.

7) The cost of preparing the area where they are used, then dragging the rat back and forth over it has to be added to training and housing the rats.

8) While a rat may indicate on a hazard, it cannot expose and clear it. The cost of manually excavating and clearing any explosive hazard that the rat signals on must also be added to the total cost of clearance.

9) The ground has to be scalped for them to be dragged across it in a straight line, then safe-lanes for the handlers manually searched and cleared – so the total cost of using the rats includes the cost of an armoured vegetation cutter and a fully equipped demining team to prepare the area in which the rat will search.

10) There is absolutely no evidence that the cost is less than the cost of demining the area using the same assets but without rats.

11) Because the rat cannot be trained to search and indicate in a set way (which a dog can be reliably trained to do) there is no way for a Quality Assurance observer to know whether the rat is paying attention, so no way of knowing whether the rat has done anything of any value at all.

Ok, I only skimmed the article, but it sounded a bit forced. And already point 1 in the summary makes me sceptic, because rats can climb pretty well as far as I know. (Otherwise I am no expert, either)

"5. There is no evidence that the method of deployment results in a thorough search of the area."

This would be my main question here.

They even try to enforce a death sentence worldwide and allmost succeded against a author who never even has been in Iran for writing a fantasy book (Salmom Rushdi).

It is absurd claiming they are peaceful. None of this justifies what Israel religious and nationalists are doing, but this black and white painting is not what is solving the conflict.

It makes a pretty big difference. Yes, the opportunities in the city are bigger for everything, but so are the dangers. The amount of crazy people. The effort involved in getting to a nice and safe place where the kids can just run around without you having to watch them every second. Those places also exist in some cities, but way too few. So great that you don't have a car, (I mean it) car free places in cities I do enjoy, there are just not many of them.

I did and am moving back to the village now.

Most of those opportunities involve getting hit by a car.

But this is not, how it should be. And not all law enforcement agencies are like this.

Well yes, that might be enough, which might be the reason there ain't so many saunas in spain, but lots of them in colder climates. (I don't go to Sauna in summer either)

So yes, to be precise, the general statement "Sauna is good for you" is probably not true in general. There are also lots of other factors, the individual tolerance to heat and your heart condition(at times I enjoy 110 degree Sauna for a long time, but if I am weak, 60 degree can already be too much for more than a few minutes), then the general atmosphere in the Sauna, is it clean, are there nice people or people you feel like getting their diseases from by sharing the same room and sweat, ... in short, do you feel safe and comfortable there (placebo is real, but so are germs).

So in general, if you don't enjoy it, don't go. But also spain can be cold I experienced, so I do recommend to try out the heat effect in a controlled environment if you have the opportunity for a nice Sauna where no one pressures you to endure more than you want to.

My partner is also from a warmer climate and she did not like Sauna first, but step by step she now enjoys it.

"The other is the health benefits, and that can only be measured from serious studies and not from how you or me feel about it later."

Yes and there are studies, so do you have anything concrete why they ain't beneficial, besides your personal dislike?

You lead with "Basically, the sauna studies are probably mostly discovering that "healthier people can stand sauna longer" that implies you did not even read them. (Besides, allmost everyone goes to Sauna in the nordic countries, that implies allmost everyone there is healthy by your logic)

But if Sauna for you was breathing fire .. one easy solution is to go to a less hot sauna.
