We’re not saving the planet. We’re trying to protect a future that’s an incremental change rather than a large shift. Because a large shift is likely to increase wars and (heaven help us) population migration. That whole prevention/cure thing. But as long as bad things only happen to someone else (generally poorer or far away), it’s human nature to think one’s own wish for comfort at every moment is more important. Wendy P.

1) Everything here is effectively an opinion piece. 2) If you don't know by now that BH posts misinformation specifically to troll people - I don't know what to tell you. Put him on ignore. Or just avoid reading his stuff.

But as ever, the religious take that personally because they cannot see the world differently and that is that.

Everything in Maldives is flown in. Food. Booze, and Jet A is barged in. Its a very expensive place to do business. if you want to do epic shit, sometimes you gotta pay.

OK, let's pump the brakes here. This is how misinformation enters the Vortex and takes on a life of its own. The origin of the "facial tic" notion was CONJECTURE by "Prospector" on the DB Cooper Forum several years ago. It is pure speculation on that person's part and is not based on any actual evidence. That doesn't mean it's not a valuable discussion, but to be clear, it is derived entirely by a supposition by someone, not any actual evidence.
