1. Catherine,

   Are you using the built in laptop microphone to record your segments? Sometimes segments are tinny and compressed sounding (maybe it is just my hearing). Might you invest in a microphone?

2. Hi Catherine,

   Here is a very informative article on Zero Hedge (via the Econimica blog) that may be of interest to your subscribers. The ramifications seem huge for the world economy, but especially pertinent to the USA. I would certainly be interested in your take and if you see a way out of the bind. Thanks!

   1. This is one of the reasons the US wants to encourage so much immigration.

3. This article is so disheartening. Having been born and raised in Northern Illinois ( moved away two years ago) it is heartbreaking
   To see what is happening there. But to use it as a way to bring in crytocurtency just adds insult to injury. Has this been the plan all along??

   1. Turbo Chipper = Clueless. 🙂

5. A message from the Illinois comptroller She mentions the effects of the state not having a budget, . A politician, but still. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HH-Z7-PMIwI&feature=youtu.be

   1. Seems pretty solid – will post.

6. Wondering about the timing of this. Is this to prevent Trump from going after the CIA sponsered terrorist groups in the Middle East?

   1. Not sure. With the NDAA including a $100+ billion plus increase in appropriations for defense that can be viewed legally as approval or any wars the money is spent on, I think they are afraid that Trump will have a blank check and that is dangerous because of the people that will try to misuse it. Open a window and the wrong forces will try to fly through it.

7. quantum entanglement. I was not aware that science was actually working with this for technical applications. http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/nationworld/science/ct-quantum-entanglement-science-space-20170617-story.html
