AI Thread Summary
The discussion highlights significant concerns regarding the legal system's oversight in death investigations, particularly in South Carolina, where new legislation mandates that coroners must have at least a high school diploma. This change underscores a perceived gap in qualifications that could have serious implications for legal outcomes. Participants express disbelief that death investigations are not federally regulated, given their critical role in court cases. The conversation also notes the availability of PBS Frontline programs online, which provide further insights into these issues, including documentaries on related topics like the financial crash.

For those who aren't aware, most of the Frontline programs are available to watch online.

I have even purchased a couple of videos about the financial crash from PBS.

Hello scientists, engineers, etc. I have not had any questions for you recently, so have not participated here. I was scanning some material and ran across these 2 ads. I had posted them at another forum, and I thought you may be interested in them as well. History is fascinating stuff! Some houses may have had plugs, but many homes just screwed the appliance into the light socket overhead. Does anyone know when electric wall plugs were in widespread use? 1906 ad DDTJRAC Even big...
