It doesn't. The growth is the same. The perceived difference is because the ends of the hair are straight and uniform rather than all raggedy. People have been asking this for years and have been hearing this answer for years but for some reason keep asking the same question over and over.

As was the price of everything and the worth of a dollar. It's nobody's fault but your own that you failed to learn simple economics...do you have a problem? You really should speak to a therapist Mr. Squid.

This was back in the 80s. Best I recall, all expenses totaled something like 16000 for the first year. But remember, in the 80s tuition prices were increasing so fast it would make your head spin,

Ok...this boomer held three jobs to pay for his first year of college and got loans for his last three. I really don't have any idea what the hell you're talking about claiming that college (let alone life) in NYC was affordable. Don't be jealous that we understood how to get GSLs and PELL grants while you and lots of your generation fell for the private companies ripping off students who wanted "free" rides. Your generation screwed it up so damn bad, that's why Biden is forgiving student loans.

I did the same in my mid 30s. It's called money management. It's a skill that has mostly been lost to us boomers.

I'm not policing it. I'm saying it's wrong. I can do that and I did do that. If you think that's policing, I don't have any idea what to tell you.

Actually, the critical way to think about this is to keep the subject on UFOs not to change it. That is why the name has been changed from UFO to UAP.

UFOs are real and I've known that since I was a child. I am surprised that NPR involves itself with this bullshit article though. The U stands for UNIDENTIFIED and if they are claiming they are alien, that would mean they have been identified and are not UFOs.

How does 70 million translate into one state speaking for the entire country of 330 million?

The last thing I will say on this topic is that the US is divided on abortion rights. Only 14 states have total abortion bans since Roe vs Wade was overturned and I doubt anyone here would be foolish enough to claim that those states speak for the entire population of the US. Yet when it comes to the execution by the state of Missouri of a black man, suddenly, that lone state speaks for an entire population of 330 million people.

Yes, it is, however, even a three-year-old who can read would see that I wrote Missouri not one state.
BTW Mr Anus, I neither care what you think of my point nor where you stick it.
