makin' of it what you can...badly

"How can you take someone seriously when he says that all the other scientists are ignoring the sun?"

That's what you think he's sayin'?

okay

##

"Read his diatribe."

So: he was forceful and bitter?

okay

#

"He also says he is a liberal."

And this is 'bad'?

okay

I'm sure he won't have any trouble getting funding now, but the accolades will have to be posthumous.
Yes, the Statue of Liberty underwater is an overblown scenario, before that could happen half the east coast would be submerged including my house more than 100 miles from the shore.
As I see it climate change is going to be a problem for future generations, the argument is whether it's our fault and can we do anything to stop it.
Even Shaviv say part of it is our doing, so anything we do to slow it down will help. Not just ambient air temperature rise, but acidification and temperature rise of the oceans is very important.

Ford Motor Co., BMW AG, Volkswagen Group, and Honda Motor Co. have signed a deal with CA to a 3.7% annual improvement starting in the 2022 model year through 2026, and 1% of that could be covered by credits for building electrics. I would assume the electrics would have to go to CA, not national, to be credited. They came to this agreement because this sort of change requires advance planning and political footballs don't allow for that.

It's about which way the wind blows. Bruce currently sails with the wind because those claiming minarchic views raided the national larder.

77degrees, this Eastern Sissy hates the humidity.

Nah, Bruce is just an easy-goin' sort, not inclined toward meanderin' off from the herd.

It's okay that he stays close to the feed trough. In fact: I insist on it.

As for us minarchistic types: we don't raid other folks' larders.

We stock our own.

it's 85 & partly cloudy

Yesterday got pretty warm (90-ish), and then the red stuff in the glass tube took a nose dive. At sunset yesterday, it was 83 and practically no humidity.

Today is going be nice (slight chance of rain) and cool as well. As a matter of fact, the weather bunny said it's gonna be like this for the next week to ten days. It was genuinely cool this morning, 64 when I got up (six-ish).

If ya got outside work, git-r-done.
