#nocoronavirus/HalifaxNS For many years I had a great woman lawyer named Lois. When she would go to see a client in jail, she would have the following words of encouragement:
"You have to look at the positive aspects of your confinement."
The positive aspects of being confined to home is that I have had some incredible Zoom meetings with people who I never would have got to meet in normal life. Thanks to Explore Mars, Inc., I got to have a video meeting with Catherine "Cady" Coleman, PhD and Colonel US Air Force (retired) She used to be a NASA astronaut. She flew two Space Shuttle missions and flew once on the Soyuz spacecraft to the International Space Station. For those of you interested, here is her biography:

She was a fascinating guest. I could spend pages talking about what I learned. Something else caught my attention during the meeting. A fellow guest was from Halifax, Nova Scotia. He made the following comment: "There is no coronavirus within 500 miles of here. We do not allow Americans in Canada now." He went on to make a joke that Canadians were considering building a wall at the border. He said that they would require Trump to pay for it. We all got a big laugh about that comment.
One must start to question what they are doing right. By the way, yesterday Brasil reported 68,000 new and documented cases of coronavirus.
