Pranam Q1 All people are not educated and even if 100% education level is reached, all are not competent to handle everything at all times. As in the note it is the population explosion and the inflation that wrought the society to be employed and women also to earn. Main factor is not the basic needs and money but the greed that men and women carry to live a stylish life. Even today if there is a single member earning frugally one can run the family as the money circulation tight will hold the market range lower than today. The false notion of money desire is the root cause. It is with both the educated, highly educated and illiterate as education and desire are not connected to earning. Contentment in life is missing. So contentious fighting grew in the family. Money makes life worse. There are many families in India even today where only the male member is earning and living happily ,educating their children. Earning and then spending is far better than planning to spend, so to earn, which lands people in trouble as a blind cannot look like a king. Both men and women misuse their freedom today. Q2 Ignorant question and unlearned answer by Jordan. Saxon were barbaric when Harappan had an angel like civilization. End. Q5 Has no evidence at all; and no one to answer the modifications of species in the last 5000 years. Science presumes on some data and the mind coming out later develops cross versions. No one knows anything better. People depend blindly on science as they are unaware of the other things but pretend as if they knew it. Q6 Laptop must be taken out of the electrical point often and plugged in to charge to hold the best function or else battery wears out faster as they get heated up. Fan cannot save the whole. Q7 Dirty Places: The Kitchen Sink Although the mere thought of retrieving anything from your toilet bowl may be enough to make you sick, your toilet may be cleaner than your kitchen sink, says Eileen Abruzzo, director of infection control at Long Island College Hospital of Brooklyn, New York. Food particles from plates left to soak or rinsed from dishes on their way to the dishwasher can serve as a breeding ground for illness-causing bacteria, including *E. coli* and salmonella. They can get on your hands or spread to foods. Abruzzo tells WebMD. “They rinse their sinks with water and assume they are clean -- but they’re not.”To sanitize your sink and prevent the spread of bacteria, Abruzzo recommends washing it with a solution of bleach and water once a day and then letting the solution run down the drain. Remember to remove the drain plug and clean it, too, she says. Then wash your hands <https://www.webmd.com/cold-and-flu/cold-guide/cold-prevention-hand-washing>. Ceramic is far better than silver or stainless steel as the worst place where contamination starts is from the sink whatever they are made of. Q8 Innate immunity is the right thing; in the olden days doctors were less yet people were stronger because the wounds healed naturally, Even if the bone is broken if fixed in position and bandaged with an ordinary cloth, the bone will join and fix by itself; Puthur is that only. Modern west medicines made the body to be attacked and cured the immune system. KR IRS 21422
