I know what you mean, but this is actually as strong as a protection in Montana (and probably elsewhere) gets. The burden is high. Montana's RTC bill had strong and competent libertarian input.
I'm the author of the posted article, and I am currently reading Brian Sanderson's latest Stormlight novel and suffering from character/name overload (doesn't help that I read the previous book years ago).
I also spent many years in Russia, where I noticed that they have few names (just a dozen or so common ones for each sex) but a gazillion variations, depending on context (e.g. family, friends, work). My theory is that under Stalin, you didn't want to stick out, and a boring name like Natalya Ivanovna was less likely to be noticed and remembered. Your trusted friends could have some unique nickname for you, like Natulya. But I never read War & Peace--it sounds like the naming practice predates Stalin. My Russian daughter is currently reading the book, so I'll have to discuss it with her.
Police commit 8% of US homicides. The problem is clearly not the police, or the Drug War, but guns. Well, maybe the police could use some more sensitivity training.
Ditto about Excedrin––I'm like the Johnny Appleseed of Excedrin in Europe. Most migraine sufferers here seem unaware of the treatment options, and often are unaware even that their headaches are migraines. Just suffering alone in silence. Being American, I'll happily discuss my health problems with strangers. I disagree with your doctor about Excedrin rebound headaches--most sufferers (in my experience) don't have migraines very often, and would notice the rebound pattern. Many if not most are drinking coffee anyway. Me, I have an espresso a day, but supposedly espresso (generally arabica) contains less caffeine than drip coffee (often robusta). I attribute its positive effects to phytochemicals other than caffeine.
About sugar, I tend to agree. My mornings greatly improved after I cut out "part of a healthy breakfast" orange juice.
