    I'm an atheist so I don't pray, but my thoughts are with the miners and their families. That being said, I wish you to get rid of Erdogan as soon as possible.
    But that's pretty much what have been said. Privatization by false auction to a friend of Erdogan, complaints that worker safety has dropped after that (from Rhyfelwyr's link). Erdogan goes "shit happens" rather than "such a tradegy shall never happen again and here's the laws to prove it".

    Those dots are very easy to connect.
    We are all aware that the senses can be deceived, the eyes fooled. But how can we be sure our senses are not being deceived at any particular time, or even all the time? Might I just be a brain in a tank somewhere, tricked all my life into believing in the events of this world by some insane computer? And does my life gain or lose meaning based on my reaction to such solipsism?
