In the June 3 post, I expressed a strong opinion that the health authorities have bungled dealing with face masks and that they should be strongly recommended.
It turns out there are Open Letters to Dr. Tam (Chief Public Health Officer of Canada) and the top health officials in Albert, Ontario and Quebec recommending mandatory face masks under specific conditions. To date there are about 1400 people who have signed these letters, almost all are health practitioners and it looks like more than 50% are MD’s.

I was fascinated with mathematics at an early age. In university I became more interested in how people think and began graduate work in psychology. The possibilities of using computers to try to understand the brain by simulating learning and thinking became an exciting idea and I completed a Master’s degree in Artificial Intelligence in Computer Science.
My interest in doing research shifted to an interest in building systems. I worked for 40+ years in the computer field, on large mainframe computers, then personal computers, doing software development for academic and scientific research, business and financial applications, data networks, hardware products and the Internet.
After I retired I began writing to help people understand computers, software, smartphones and the Internet. You can download my free books from Apple iBooks, Google Play Books and from https://www.smashwords.com/profile/view/edainow
