Newest rules here, go into effect net stage of returning rights to citizens:

"All restaurants that offer table service must keep a daily log of customers, including contact information and listing when they arrived. The logs will be used for potential contact tracing and must be kept by the restaurant for 30 days."

Cut and paste. No politics. Fact.
 
Back in junior high (when I was studying under Aristotle ...), a social studies teacher taught us:

You can have freedom, and you can have security. You can increase one by decreasing the other, and vice versa. It all depends on your needs, and on the circumstances.

I'd choose order over chaos just about every time. Nothing remains the same.

heck, one of them even had a piano!
US Thomas A. Edison:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Thomas_A._Edison

During the construction of Thomas A. Edision, the construction captain requested that a Steinway piano be placed aboard. This piano remained on board the submarine for 22 years (1961–1983) up until her decommissioning. The Steinway piano is the only example of a full-sized piano ever installed on a U.S. submarine conducting nuclear deterrent patrols.
 
A piano? on a ship?

The airship Hindenburg's aluminum piano -

 
Stuff of legend, especially amongst Fast Attack Tough sailors when regarding Part Time Boomers.
 
Half a set, since they are only at sea half the time.
