My Mother had radical surgery on one leg, lived in an iron lung, and spent the rest of her life disabled. And because of the disability, she was unable to exercise and died in her 70s. But when the polio vaccine came out, she whipped her kids in to get as fast as she could. And none of her kids got polio. Imagine telling her she should avoid vaccinating her kids.

When Nikola Tesla drove a remote controlled boat around a pond in 1926 people were convinced that there was a small monkey inside steering the boat instead of it being radio controlled. When there was an actual person in a box below a puppet fortune teller, people believed the magic of the puppet. Reality and perception often are disconnected.

It's Biblical quote. And with money comes power. The two might not be easily teased apart. The "Gospel of Prosperity" is a justification for having wealth beyond others, and escaping the need to care about "all God's children". Money, money, money.

It was a common practice, especially in years immediately following WW2, to build a house this way for economic reasons. Buy some land or use land of a relative. Build a basement to live in. As years go by and your economic health (better paying jobs, savings) improves, build a first floor on top of the foundation. Plus in-ground insulation from heat and cold reduces energy costs. I know a person who did this. Or just stop at the basement dwelling.

Song by Simon & Garfunkel

Robert Smalls, slave crew member, at age 22 took over a Confederate gun ship, and sailed it into Union waters, turning it over to the Union navy. He served in the Union navy thereafter, eventually received a pension, served in South Carolina congress, and served in the U.S. House of Representatives. He bought the house in which he had been a slave, and died age 75 in SC. A movie about him should have been made.

I took a self-guided tour of Windsor Castle years ago with a device playing audio appropriate to my location within the castle. As an American I chose a device in English. I understood almost nothing, and wished I had chosen German, a language for which I have 6 years of education. Audio quality wasn't the best, but the recording was one of the Royal family with a very deep accent.

In college where it was -20F outside and inside +80F (steam heating), my feet would be sweating in my boots in class. Never mind glasses frosted over. Then leaving the class/building for another class/building I would be freeze dried only to repeat this. The coat with straps might have been nice, but nothing helped for the feet or glasses. But for the shop or subway sounds good.

Secret speed limits are a thing, at least in Maryland and Virginia. We usually get two or three or sometimes more signs warning of photo enforced speed limits in construction zones. But these signs do not reveal what speed is or will be enforced. Not until you are in the construction zone. "We're going to punish you for not obeying the speed limit we are keeping secret." Very clever. Hopefully motorists guess correctly.

You just need a sharp point to start a crack, even a broken spark plug insulator works. A lock might not provide enough of a sharp point to shatter tempered glass. Such tools also have an edge to cut seat belts, another source of entrapment, especially if quick exit is needed to escape fire. I had two friends die in a fire in a small airplane crash where the passerby could not open the doors. There was no tempered window to break, but it's another trapped in vehicle fire death.

In the 1980s there was a similar problem, not because of electric doors, just doors that might not open. A friend of mine carried a tool to break her car window and an early mobile phone out of fear of this happening. It never happened to her, but her fear was real. Carrying a tool to break side windows might be used by you to help someone in another vehicle escape.

I'm guessing people are so loud because they actually have hearing losses. We see what you describe here. And it happens even when there is only one person talking on a phone out for a walk before sunrise and after dark. Like a one-person parade going by. People in their cars with windows up and running their radios or having phone conversations that you can hear and understand from several hundred meters away. I'm guessing hearing loss, which contributes to later dementia.
