Watch this video of later Jordan. His shots don’t look so flat. “The Shot,” the primary source of evidence might misrepresent.

Interesting analogy on the torture and stress tests. Has anyone shared this with the current administration? It would seem that the stress tests will not reveal the information that we need and that we will be no better off after than we were before.
