Just about half a century ago, Crichton, a former medical doctor, published a techno-novel about a deadly extraterrestrial microoganism infecting New Mexico. Samples were transported to a secret lab 60 miles from Las Vegas. No RNA/DNA, but an entity that keeps mutating and can convert energy into matter.
The main character is a professor from Stanford University. A movie (Rotten Tomatoes: 69%/73%) directed by Robert Wise was released in 1971, featuring Arthur Hill as this doctor. In 2008, Ridley and Tony Scott had Benjamin Bratt as this character in an eponymous miniseries. Rotten Tomatoes thought this was a dull mutation (30%). Also in the cast was Daniel Dae Kim, as a doctor. A sequel, written by Daniel Wilson, entitled The Andromeda Evolution, was written last year. But Crichton passed away in 2008, so why is his name at the top of this book? Something for you to answer. Now that you are only mostly watching your television set, you might be able find the above in Netflix, Amazon Prime or RedStop.
The directions said this would only take 10 minutes of your life. I was told to go to my2020census.gov and type-in my census ID, which is provided in the mailing. I went yesterday, and the whole process took THREE MINUTES! I'm a certified klutz when it comes to getting to a government site and succeeding in doing anything. It took me 3 minutes. SO GO!!!
- It's a once a decade count to determine the number of seats each state has in the House of Representatives. This is a big deal for the following states:
- New York is likely to lose 1 or 2 seats;
- Alabama, Illinois, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and West Virginia are likely to lose 1 seat;
- California and Minnesota may lose 1 seat or remain the same;
- Montana may gain one seat or remain the same;
- Arizona, Colorado, North Carolina and Oregon are likely to gain 1 seat;
- Florida is likely to gain 2 seats;
- Texas is likely to gain 3 seats.[9][10][11]
- Federal funding for schools, clinics, hospitals, school lunches, Medicaid, Head Start, new roads and services for where you live will be affected by your participation.
- Hundreds of billions of Federal dollars will be allocated according to the survey results.
- Electoral districts will be determined.
- Businesses will make decision on where to re-locate or leave.
- And a lot more.
Okay, if you don't respond online, this only means that one of the half a million people being hired to reach people like you during May through July will contact you. The problem is COVID-19. The deadline for the Census Bureau to send the final report to the President and Congress is December. Of course, this date can be delayed if necessary.
In 2010, 74% of Americans participated. This was a mail-in census. Livonia, Michigan took first place with 88%.
Here is another tally:
