The discussion in both could get confusing. Someone may look in the wrong post for a follow-up. Any way the two posts could get combined, since they are both by the same author? Or maybe warn the posters in one tat it is going to be deleted, and refer them to the second post?

How can this post created in the 'Canada' community be cross posted into the 'Canada' community? Somehow the same post got 'created' twice in the same community.

Surely this comes under the topic 'Identity Theft'?
By reducing his score to zero, effectively wiping out his entire credit history, they have completely stolen his identity and taken it completely away from him?
Have you not grown up, or is it the opposite - dementia has set in?
As in 'If you are progressive, do not read too much into that book."?
And here is me thinking that AI was a LEARNING thing.
Let's clarify some literary terms.
Sci-fi means Science Fiction, or general sciences particularly. Emphasis on the general sciences as a major element in the fiction. Soc-Com refers to Social Commentary. Emphasizes discussing or hypothesizing some element of Social Science as opposed to General Science. Soc-Fi refers to 'Social Science' Fiction, not to be confused with 'general science' Fiction. It is primarily Social Commentary fiction in a fictional setting, sometimes incidentally using some principles of general science manipulation in the setting.
Many people get these terms confused and intermingle them. Some books actually do cross over.
Ray Bradbury wrote a lot of really good Sci-Fi. He also wrote some good Soc-Com or Soc-Fi and many tried to pretend it was still Sci-Fi. Fahrenheit 451 for example, was good Soc-Fi. Not much 'Science' in it, but a whole lot of 'Social' in it.
When I was in high school the English department tried to convince me A Canticle for Leibowit was Sci-Fi and not Soc-Com or Soc-Fi. The science in it was horrible.
That would explain it, then.
Ahhh, I see most of the posts herein are showing the Americans a warm welcome. A really warm welcome. As in 'hope you fry in Hell' warmth.
The irony is, my account with TD goes way back to when my original account WAS with a Credit Union-type institution - Waterloo Trust, then Canada Trust, then TD.
Their entire culture pervades each one, individually. They are definitely NOT like 'everyone else'. The indoctrination into the 'American way' is so pervasive, it is almost impossible to speak to any American individually for any length of time before some aspect of the 'American way' comes through. Basically, the 'American Way' is summed up by the phrase 'The entire world is centered around America, and only America maters'.
