Good morning Liberty. A program called Property Acquisition and Demolition is buying homes in flood prone areas and returning the parcels to wetlands, as the the ocean gradually encroaches. The ‘wall scenario is, in my estimation, a money making sand against the wind effort. I can envision virtual tours in the far future showing where the city took its last stand. My light hope is that the row houses, like mine, will make a good base for reef coral. Perhaps it will not end up that way. The emerging statistics/events weigh heavily on the desire for optimism. As always …..

Good morning Don, Liberty. Well it was until I read this series of posts. The passion, as written, is extreme yet understandable. The idea of the world joining forces to bring this nation to its knees is indeed novel but also paradoxical. If that much of the planet could work together the outlook would be brighter. Sadly too many of our sibling nations are as bad or worse, conserving the environment, than we are. Fingering one individual also will be of brief satisfaction. Similar to ‘killing the messenger’. Our present leader may seem overwhelmed and incompetent. He is the product of a political party/process. He tries to balance all factions and prays for survival. Would he be different if he was elected without being beholden to a Democrat/Republican standard/factions? That, as it is my own bias, I would like to try. Your comment on voting, Liberty, I don’t agree with, even though I feel your statement rings true. If Satan is running, perhaps that is who we must vote for. That is who we must deal with to save our home. The ($$$) power is the control. We must resolve the ‘What’s in it for me crowd’ to accelerate movement. As simplistic as it sounds, while our genius captains of industry are trying to create outer space playgrounds for the Uber rich, I would bring these devils to the table and say the one T$+ that it takes to get to, terraform and settle Mars is yours if you deliver to me (instead) a way to generate energy cleanly for world wide use. Once Gaia is in self sustaining order we will start thinking about visiting our beyond atmosphere neighbors. The brokers have no National allegiance. Their God is profit and their religion is their own continuance. Yet they are who we must deal with in order to save ourselves so we can eventually move beyond them and their credo. I apologize, Don, Liberty, for the idealistically laced diatribe. As always …

Good afternoon Don. Considering the direction we are headed, it has obvious relevance in both threads. As always ….

Good morning gl. The only thing that radiates well in my postage stamp is me. Everything else holds onto the heat like an atmospheric aphrodisiac. As always …….

Breath taking, Don. All I could think of, personally was, “and the days grow short I’m in the Autumn of the year”. As always ….

Good morning Don, Liberty. Even as my personal time ebbs, I think of equations and the balance they seek to describe. If a true p-t/hurricane hitting Labrador and 10 gigs-tons of frozen mass, descending on Greenland, is an example, my fear for the direction/results of balance will continue to grow. As always …..

Agreed Unc. I prefer scary places that I know are pretend. The one I remember is the fright ride at Seaside Heights NJ when I was an 8 year old over 66 years ago. It scared me dung-less. My father, an army and navy vet thought it would be a good idea for me the take the ride alone. He assured me he would be waiting. Of course my mom, who arrived on the scene after the ride started looked at my pale visage when I came out, hugged me and bought me the largest cotton candy on a stick that I can remember. My mom handed me over to my grandmother ( families seemed to travel together then ) and asked my father to step away with her for a moment. My father, as I recollect, was quite subdued after that. I’m sure the few moments Of ‘angry Sicilian mother’ quality time was not pleasant. I did feel bad for my father, you see I was the one who insisted on going on the ride. As always …

Will considering the state of my head, I feel that your post is an accolade. I don’t go to the OT. My self administered anger management seems to be holding. Your post reminded me of some pleasant times I spent at lunch with my lost love. As a goal my head merged with a zen garden is one I would like to be remembered for, with or without the little rake. As always ….

Good evening GOW. Thank you for your kind advice. I do get together with fully vaccinated family. What also makes sense to me, as an 8th decade aged member, is to enjoy the lite banter with forum friends that I may never physically see/meet in my remaining life time. My hope, some day, is that I will be able to see folks regularly with bare faces and hands ready to shake or bump and arms ready to hug. What saddens me is how this virus not only causes disease but also contention. Have a good night. As always …

If there is ever a post pandemic forum get together, several of us can do a NYMetro skit, written by Will. After the performance we all might have to find a new forum and possibly a bail bondsman. As always …

Good evening Will. I never knew Julian was an entrepreneur. Judging by the product name I’m not sure if you ingest it or calmly wait until it does something to you. As always ….

Good evening Liberty, BxE. So that’s why the daughters keep on me about getting rid of the plastic bottle I use to refrigerate my tap water. Now if I could somehow direct those micro particles where I wanted them. As always……

Good evening Unc. I remember that near Christmas snowfall about a week (?) before the holiday. 60/61 wasn’t bad either as I recollect. As always ….

Good afternoon, Liberty, Julian. I remember a photo from years ago when brand bottled water was gaining popularity. It showed a brand name bottled water tanker truck filling up at a city hydrant. Obviously staged but it did get me to wondering. As always ……

Good morning dm. Whomever wrote the article may not be versed as to the difference between the system described and the one that will affect us today. It also sells more….. As always
