On earth the king is next, then the nobles, on down to the peasantry. Holding the lowest position were the beggars and lunatics and finally, the animals. Interrupting this order is unnatural.

Because Lear is not satisfied with Cordelia's response, he turns his back on Cordelia and on her love. By doing this he is destroying the natural family unit and lacks the insight to know this.

- 7202: The Safety Of Our Food Supply
- ... and the available scientific evidence if we are to judge how safe it is. We must understand that absolute safety is impossible for any food additive or other chemical. Microorganisms contaminate our food and that's the reason why we must use preservatives in order to keep our food (and also certain medications) fresher for a longer period of time.

They do not present any risk to our health. They don't consistute more than a mere 0.3% of the weight of the product, and at this concentration do not cause any harm. Fats breakdown into smaller odorous molecules in the presence of oxygen. This ...

- ... a blood alcohol level of a maximum of 0.02 percent. Studies have shown that in the past it was fairly easy for people under the age of 21 to purchase alcohol. In the 1960’s and early 1970’s, many states lowered their minimum purchasing ages from 21 to 18 or 19 years old. The consequence was an increase in 15-20 year olds under the influence involved in fatal crashes. As a result ... 13 percent, meaning in 1985 the nighttime fatality rate was 15 percent.

- 7210: Personal Writing: A Beck Concert
- ... was a big mess! It was a concert that was filled, almost all the tickets were sold. For what-ever reason that the band had, it was a really big "screw up".
