    Would the opinion change if the "look" was good?  Probably not, ha.  Everyone expects failure by now.

    This is the time of year where he’s meteorologically torn and on/off daily like his boy’s tariffs.

    Think ice castles survive? 

    By the weekend? Probably. I see they’re in Woodstock now and that place is like the last to mix out up there. But I have no idea how often they freshen them up when it goes below freezing. I haven’t seen them in a decade since they were at Loon.

    The problem with post-modern society is that somewhere along the way in getting here, there's been this new reproach to everything that has aroused a reproach where, if one does understand something or does not like the implications of something,  they don't apparently have to believe it even exists. 

    This is proooobably precipitated out of the fake news momentum that waved through culture about 10 years ago - remember that?  It was tongue 'n' cheek but ... heh, now we suffer the ramification of the "alternate reality" fixation .

    ..Which is a luxury anyway - take away the industrial advantages of ass wiping our consequences away whenever we are objectively false ... there's a negative feedback there in general virtuosity.  It has been enabling people's approach to everything into basically systemic lessening of returns - and ... duh duh dunnn, psychobabble science has papered that the commoner IQ is some 20 points lower than it was prior to 1920 - so, we warm the planet, and cool the intellects, then the latter re-enforces the former, and we have a nice closed feed-back loop that ensures a finality that ...well, - most are probably too stupid to believe is even possible... 

    But that chart above?   We might be surprised how little that actually means anything to the majority of population.  It's a cool blue knife.

     

     

    It’s unfortunate that every issue gets politicized and split down party lines now. CC should be about the science. 

    Imagine if the ozone hole was discovered today? We would have parties arguing over CFCs and people in trailer parks in Arkansas saying they’re not giving up their aerosol cans. 

    But the action the world took resulted in quite a success story.
