  1. It is very difficult on a bicycle - moto to have eyes in 4 directions on the bicycle path and dangerous when cars pull across it with the driver only looking the other way. It is also dangerous when motorists stop to let one cross the Carretera. There are too many variables, especially at an intersection. A car can pull out to pass the stopped vehicle, a car can try turning from either cross street, not to mention traffic coming from the other direction. Even if your heart says do it, please don't stop.
  2. Milkweed assassin bugs larvae look very similar to leaf-footed bugs larvae which can devastate your garden. https://newhanover.ces.ncsu.edu/2018/07/do-i-squash-it/ I just had them in my squash.
  3. I did not go the hospital which P thinks I did BTW. He must have done so much work to be able to judge all the ophthalmologists in GDL to know who is the best.
  4. No idea what you are talking about regarding show rooms. I saw a Walmart on one side and electronics store (I think) on the other. My procedure was outpatient, just that I got to relax and change in a private room. Because of my disability; cannot bend, I need a bed to get undressed/dressed. I do not know if this is available at the clinic. Also, I require a specialist to hit my veins for IV due to Arthrogryposis. Thankfully they have one on staff at the hospital who was called after several failures by two nurses. Besides all that, my total cost was about 20,000 to 30,000 (maybe 40) pesos less than if I went with Dr. Claudia for the same lenses (including topography). Perhaps a little thought prior to jumping to ridicule with your posts may be in order?
  5. Amazon is your friend for computer parts or https://www.cyberpuerta.mx/
  6. I ended up buying parts and repairing my PC myself after local repair people came up just slightly short. Adrian at 331 064 8578 in Ajijic demonstrated the most knowledge through messages exchanged with me.
  7. For those who may be unaware, Dr. Claudia has an office separate from the eye clinic in Guadalajara. I was examined by her there because I cannot climb steps. I opted for my surgery done by Dr. Garrido at Puerta De Hierro Sur, which was a perfect experience, with private room pre and post procedure, an anesthesiologist who emailed with me ahead of time to learn of my prior experience. I had eyes done separately; Zeiss (AT LISA) trifocal lenses at 42,000 pesos each all in.

  9. You misunderstand. They listed everybody's studies; not their's. This just saved me listing them.
  10. Just so you know, my reason for posting the 2nd link/article is that it lists and links many (myriad) studies on both sides of the cancer debate. Personally I've observed changes in soil microbial populations following glyphosate application to associated plants [however never recorded data].
  11. Of course they did. There are arguments and studies pro and con the industry. Causing cancer is the main thing looked at but there is also ecological harm to soil to consider. A review concerning cancer; https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26883814/ The debate and a myriad of studies; https://usrtk.org/pesticides/new-analysis-glyphosate-studies/
  12. Glyphosate has become a tool of convenience for most grain farmers. It is used to kill off the crop (hasten senescence) so they can harvest when the sun shines. As a result glyphosate is found in virtually every bread and cereal on the planet. [and subsequently every human]
  13. Looks like I got the year wrong or it was altered since I read about it - 2024 https://www.agricensus.com/Article/Mexico-s-Supreme-Court-ratifies-glyphosate-and-GMO-corn-ban-18938.html
  14. I believe his son is there running the place. I think I paid around 400 pesos for a very good cleaning.
  15. Just a little heads up to dog owners. As I was walking my dog up Hacienda (?) into Villa Nova I saw a 'gardener' masked up and spraying glyphosate (Roundup) on the road's edge so I turned around. I cannot present any dog specific studies right now but there are numerous studies presenting evidence of harm to humans. I do know as a soil microscopist that it does not dissipate as rapidly as claimed by manufacturers. I suggest keeping your eyes open for this if walking your dog. I believe it will be banned in Mexico effective January 2023.
  16. Interesting. So she is a dental surgeon? If you don't mind telling, did she complete a satisfactory implant on you? What period of the time did process take place over? A Mexican friend reported getting 2 implants several years ago in La Floresta (can't remember name) which were completed in total over several days. A friend in Vancouver reported the same. The dentists here, who I asked, complete them only over several months.
  17. I know that Dr. Carlos is not at DE. I had a long discussion with him wherein I asked him if he does the implants or brings in a surgeon. He brings in a surgeon, as I stated. If he did the implants, I would have attended his office. I then asked his opinion of the surgeon who is brought in by Dental Express. He said that he is a good surgeon, therefore I went ahead with the appointment at DE after a discussion with their surgeon. I was blind sided by the additional costs as mentioned, which was the major point of my post. Perhaps you misunderstood what I was attempting to convey,
  18. I believe all local dentists bring in surgeons from Guadalajara to do implants. This is the case with Dental Express and Dr. Carlos. If you get an implant at Dental express be aware of added costs. The advertised price on the sign out front only covers the post; not the filler (bone graft), membrane nor tooth (crown). The actual cost is more than double of that advertised.
  19. If you like alfalfa, it competes with weeds, once established and if seeded heavily. It also puts nitrogen into the soil, it is a useful herb and cuttings can be soaked in water for 24 to 48 hours for a plant fertilizer. And it makes pretty flowers.
  20. Free shipping from Amazon Mexico but 4900 pesos; treaded tires and elevating leg/foot rests
