“History doesn’t repeat itself but it rhymes” Replace the US with Russia and Vietnam with Ukraine and play that through.
-
It’s not a bet it is a fact, the war is over and Russia has lost. The only decision left for Putin is how much more death and destruction will have to be endured (on both sides). Much like WWII was decided by the end of ‘42.
-
Should not but, regrettably is part of the equation.
-
The best way to ensure peace is to continue to demilitarize Russia via Ukraine. Russia has no ability to reconstitute a modern military without the import of Western technology. Its meager economy is continuing to contract and it is in a demographic death spiral which it can not reverse. We are witnessing the death throes of a 19th century empire. Let’s pray that it ends in a whimper and not a bang.

The only thing in crisis is the narrative that higher levels of CO2 will result in more frequent tropical cyclones.

Per my edit Should a Muslim halal caterer be forced to provide food at a gay orgy?

You were presenting a unrealistic “what if” scenario so it didn’t warrant a realistic response. Should a halal caterer be forced to provide food at a gay orgy?
-
But that is not the case…so…no.
-
I thought is so self evident, I couldn’t have been the first one to think of it. So out of an abundance of caution I added the quotation marks.

A transaction should be amenable to both parties, there are plenty of other bakeries that would be glad to have that business. BTW Twitter is allowed to put its finger on the scales of social media just as much as Musk will now be able to do now. ”Inside every progressive is a totalitarian just waiting to get out”

Who said anything about Facebook?

Being able to discuss the business dealings of the First Family, the origins of covid, the efficacy of vaccines, and the security of our election systems to name a few. Not allowing questions to be asked, brings up even more questions.

Not quite, I skip the title and read the conclusion. Meanwhile in the Atlantic https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/

As I thought, nothing conclusive.
-
No, it drains and evaporates without killing lots of folks.

Can you share any peer reviewed studies that conclusively show that the speed of tropical cyclones have slowed, or are you still getting your “science” from left wing media?

“Storm Surge Storm surge is the abnormal rise of water generated by a storm's winds. This hazard is historically the leading cause of hurricane related deaths in the United States. Storm surge and large battering waves can result in large loss of life and cause massive destruction along the coast.” No wind, no storm surge
-
I think you mean storm surge, which is a function of wind.
-
Actually hurricanes without wind would bee even less destructive.
-
Can you show me where the “wetness” of a hurricane is a well established metric?Generally the amount of rainfall on a given location is a function of speed of movement. The “wetness” metric did not appear until after Harvey, when it go trapped around Houston between two fronts of nearly identical strength (rare but not unprecedented) and the press was clamoring to tie it to climate change.

Not exactly https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accumulated_cyclone_energy

Hurricanes are more damaging because there is more to damage. Folks are fleeing NY, CT, MA, and IL and moving to Fl and TX for a warmer climate (and a better political environment). The result is that a given storm will do more damage today than a similar storm would have in the past.
-
Flipping a coin would have been more economical. BTW they gave only a 10% chance of a below average season. Average is six hurricanes we have had only four.
