Anything in the air is an UFO except when proven to be a plane. And not always, because some test flights of military prototypes are hidden to the public for reasons of secrecy.
When is cold you want a hot drink, and coffee is the only warm thing I know to combine with alcohol. Baileys, rum, whiskey, brandy, are good in a coffee
To be honest I can only say that I speak fluently my language (Spanish) but I can understand some more languages, especially in its written form, as I have more time.
We can ask another dumb question: imagine a new and different potato variety discovered in a far away place. It has not been genetically modified but nature is amazing, so we do not know if it will have long-term adverse effects. It may be carcinogenic or cause addiction or impotence. Should that potato be labeled as "unknown-potato-we are not responsible of possible adverse effects"?
Not affect me much if it does not create economic problems.
I belong to the large minority who speaks preferably Spanish, and that's the only reason I would change my opinion. But for years the Catalan is considered something like the first official language, and Spanish politicians have done nothing to change that, so the independence will mean nothing in my daily life.

This one is very useful...after the U.S. army discarded the true mules off their arsenal. Wrong decision, after hearing the terrible noise of this robot. Only for deaf enemies.
I don't think a humanoid robot could be more effective than another weapons, as a remote controlled tank or these "drones".
Banning to smoke tobacco or banning to sell tobacco?
If someone forbids smoking it just does not make sense to permit selling it.
And if forbid selling, the state will automatically lose income partly billionaires who support the health care system, and many other things.
In contrast, a new gang of tobacco dealers will contribute to the insecurity and the business of the mafia. Bad business, and to prohibit something that the government should implement a means to enforce the ban, and that's another public spend.
From wikipedia: The adult human brain weighs on average about 3 lbs. (1.5 kg) with a volume of around 1130 cubic centimetres (cm3) in women and 1260 cm3 in men, although there is substantial individual variation. Men with the same body height and body surface area as women have on average 100g heavier brains,although these differences do not correlate in any simple way with gray matter neuron counts or with overall measures of cognitive performance.
