Yes, in your lifetime you will be okay. Let's just let our children and grandchildren figure it out. In the meantime the feedback loops are beginning to be a factor. As predicted. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/04/190415090848.htm

But that’s what happened in 2016. The R base came out for Trump. And the voted for Rs while they were at it.

That airport in that beautiful valley is surrounded by productive farm land. It's not just your operation, it's general aviation that is subsidized. Along with you.

This would be the crux of the matter right there.

Bees are a great topic for the Bonfire. Unless you are planning some kind of attack killer bee colony maybe not here in SC.

I'm not sure if you are trying to inspire or amuse. It's not really working at either tonight. But you are right about one thing. There won't be much of an edifice with the chump change we are talking about.

The trial resulted in two firsts. It was the first ever impeachment trial in the Senate of any kind, not just Presidential, with no witnesses heard from. The other first is it is the only Presidential impeachment trial that hade a Senator vote to convict a President of his own party. Trump is truly exceptional and will be remembered for both those things.

But who is paying for it?
-
That is a more realistic approach. A small museum is one thing. A "Hall of Fame" is not. Considering there are no famous skydivers. Even Col. Kittenger is a name most people wouldn't immediately place.

You've pretty much got it.

Of course, I'd love to know what was the alternative she had under consideration. Anyone care to guess?
-
The upcoming election probably.

In theory, but it would have been in defiance of an order from the White House not to. And more than likely an application for an emergency injunction on the basis of executive privilege. The House was faced with a decision to proceed or allow Trump to tangle them up in court for months.

If they were they didn't know how to route chest straps! The 5 way shot has heads edited onto bodies. The album jacket list gear as being supplied by "The Altitude Shop". It is possible that there was a jumper in the band, but extremely unlike 5 of them.

This is what happened. https://www.cnn.com/2019/11/07/politics/john-bolton-no-subpoena-court-battle/index.html

They did not subpoena Bolton.

He is safe electorally speaking. Or he would be just going along like the rest of them. Which does say something good about Utah.

I'm still laughing.

Oh, Joe!

Yes, and yes there was sarcasm. -
You aren't going to ignore it. You are going to pretend that it is meaningful and that the proven steady increase in the world's sea level is not. I am indeed going to ignore some small variation in a local data point and look at the big picture. You will look for excuses.

Don't worry about your confusion over Miami too much. Miami is a big US coastal city, but it's far from being the only place affected by the sea. It's only #5 on this list. https://www.theguardian.com/cities/ng-interactive/2017/nov/03/three-degree-world-cities-drowned-global-warming

At least you probably don't have rigging work to do. I hate it when I cut a finger and don't notice that I am bleeding on someones nice white reserve bridle.

Oh good grief. Are you going to punish all the women of America because Nancy pissed you off? I mean she's female, and damned it just goes to show you they don't have what it takes to be in politics. What you have just said is one of the most patronizing misogynist things I have heard here since back when Correeeeeceee was in his blue period.

Very good. Now let's test out some math. How much is that in a human lifetime of about 80 years? How long can that keep going on for? I just don't get how in the hell people like you can even try to argue that nothing is happening. The sea is higher, it's warming and getting higher yet. The glaciers are melting you just have to look at them. The air is warming, but that is not what is important. The energy is stored in the vast seas. They drive everything about our climate. It is too late to stop the warming. It is a trend that will continue not forever, because nothing does, but for the foreseeable future. It is not too late to begin to make changes that will limit the damage somewhat. And that's what Greta and the rest want us to do. Not to go back to the stone age, but to make smart decisions that look beyond our own lifetimes.
