Of course, the article never mentions the curse. How can we decide if it’s back if it’s not explained.
Does any rational being believe in “curses”? I thought the highpoint of this particular meme (i.e., a paradigm spread like a gene or virus from person to person) was Salem Witchcraft.
Last I looked the alchemists hadn’t change lead into gold. And heaven help us if they do.
As a fat old white guy injineer, I believe in facts and evidence.
No excuse me while I sprinkle some of that spilled salt over my left shoulder.
