By the way, random selection is one of the few methods to guarantee a fair and representatative sample.

In case of a library I'd want at least part of the catalog represent media of the times is was created, because science also uses that.

One reason archaelogy in Pompei is valuable is that everyrhing - including pornograhic graffiti and slander was preserved, giving us a different perspective into those times than books by medieval historians.

Of course, I'd also want - in another part of the catalog - books/media by manually selected scientists, artists, historians.

As gas stations have enough room for more expensive "ultimate" versions of fuel, I don't think that's the reason. You can frequently get two kinds of Diesel and three kinds of Gas at the pump.

O. t. o. h..maybe the whole "premium fuel" hype resulted from stations having additional tanks after leaded fuel was phased out.

Tbh, I have no idea. The whole of Europe was late to this. The first catalytic conveter cars were sold in 1973 in the US and 1985 in Germany.

Switzerland made them obligatory in 1986, Germany made them obligatory only in 1993 - because that was an EU-wide regulation.

The only thing I can imagine is the big political influence car makers have in Germany, but that's just "what sounds reasonable to me", no proof.

Damit bringst Du mich gerade erst auf einen Gedanken. Warum war Andi so ärgerlich wegen 1 Pimmel? Identifiziert er sich als 0 Pimmel? Oder war er früher auf Lases und war u/DoppelDödelDigga?

Da bin ich schon durch, hatte vor 10 Jahren ne kutane Leishmaniose aka Orientbeule. Wird durch Sandmücken übertragen. Wo gibt's die? In Südeuropa und seit kurzem auch (noch vereinzelt) in Deutschland - weils durch den Klimawandel warm genug wird für die.

Ach ja, wurde erfolgreich behandelt, war im Gesicht und laut Wikipedia "heilt nach ca. 2Jahren spontan ab unter der Bildung entstellender Narben"

Fuck, Germany introduced unleaded fuel only in 1984 and still offered leaded fuel for a long time.

It was required because of the introduction of catalytic converters, which would get damaged by lead in the fuel.

When I was at Bundeswehr I was in hospital for some time and got some thorough diagnosis. They asked me if I worked with lead in the past (no), so I seem to have at least some lead levels in my body.

(Can't think of a I AM NOT CRAZY pun right now)

Exactly this thought made made me understand "god is irrelevant" a long time ago and I became an agnosticist.

I really can not understand people who are only "good" because they fear an ultimate judgment, and not be good just because they want to out of their own volition.

In case there are gods, I'll be judged for who I am, anyways. It doesn't matter if I play "good child". If there are no gods, I'm still happier if I'm not an asshole.
