I've grabbed a couple like that, too - fun stuff! My latest acquisition is a couple of English's first dictionaries.

Those would be interesting.

Absolutely. I think that ball of fire in the sky has more to do with our weather than anything humans can do.

& you'd be 100% right, per my research!

Of course I'm right. I'm always right. Its just a curse I have to bear.
:)

We've been far warmer than the 1`C they're afraid we'll heat things up to, millions opf years before human existed, & we've had far more atmospheric CO2 than all that humans have produced, in toto.

I get a chuckle when people say humans are causing all the problems then
try to explain ice ages and warm periods over the eons when humans had
nothing to do with it.
And also just what is the perfect weather? Ice ages? Warm periods?
I'll watch some show from 30 years ago how the weather changed and it
was called weather. Now its human caused climate change.
Some area had erosion that was natural, now its caused by humans.

Volcanos have been an integral part of Earth's carbon & climate cycles since day one.

Yep.

My other take on the situatoin relies more on others' cynicism, as I've noted the climate change criers are the ones burhning more fossil fuels than any of the rest of us!

Such as all those private jets going to Glasgow of that recent summit?
:)

& it's funny how all the leaders of the movement have recently spent 7-figures each buying ocean-front properties (That's like paying thousands for a sand castle as the tide is coming in)

One would think they would buy property far inland...

I do my part by not wasting materials/food/plastic/etc & recycling where possible.

I do the same.
I find second usage for a lot of stuff.
No particular order: old metal coffee cans for things like rice, sugar,
etc.
Old two litre bottles for juices, etc.
Slivers of soap squeezed onto new bars.
Old while cotton socks for cleaning rags.
Cloth rags for cleaning rather than paper towels.
I have a whole lot of things I use over and over.
I was raised on:
Use it up,
Wear it out,
Make it do,
Or do without.

Joe,

Of course I'm right. I'm always right. Its just a curse I have to bear. :)

You're not always right, but you're never wrong.

And also just what is the perfect weather? Ice ages? Warm periods?

The term is relative. :P

I'll watch some show from 30 years ago how the weather changed and

Exactly. Now, they're blaming the tornado outbreak on climate change. Well, if they want global warming, wait until the fourth bowl judgment of Revelation.

Such as all those private jets going to Glasgow of that recent
summit? :)

I liked the one a few years ago where the Global Warming conference was canceled, due to a blizzard...and I don't mean the treat from Dairy Queen!!

One would think they would buy property far inland...

And, they keep doing it. Some say the risk of being washed away or flooded
ut
is "the price you pay for living in paradise". That's too much for me.

I was raised on:
Use it up,
Wear it out,
Make it do,
Or do without.

So many kids nowadays will never know the meaning of that <sigh!>.

I heard of folks that would never take suitcases on vacation. They would never do laundry, and instead, buy new clean clothes, and throw the dirty
ones in the trash.

Indeed. Pretty basic -- you & I didn't exercise special genius to figure this one out.

I assume every anthropgenic climate change screamer is deliberately & knowingly lying & committing mass fraud, as they HAVE to know better.

The one that out & out peed me off is the ads showing glaciers breaking off into the ocean & voiceover pointed out how the glaciers are shrinking at an astronomically fast rate.

WTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF??????????????????

I paid attention in school, mostly, but enough to know that as glaciers GROW, they "calve" pieces into the ocean, which become ice bergs.

Now I'm hearing a polar(NPI) opposite explanation. . . that's worded in such away, with the visual, that the majority of tv viewers will eat it up, unquestioningly. & then elect people & effect public policy changes based on this flawed perception of Earth's reality

This makes me more irate than anty of the other "climate change" lies!

You recall, too, how it was all "global warming" throughout the '80s, unmtil it was decisively proved the Earth is acrtually cooling (consistent with being in an ice age event that's within a bigger Ice Age period)

Then. . ."climate change" (highfalutin' word for "weather")

*sigh* Surrounded by morons whose collective vote does nothing to find out facts. . . just keep electing the liars & cheats who campaign solely on this web of lies. . .

It's RUDE, as these stastements from on high are them saying they think I'm a moron, too, & can't see black & white for what they are (not pink & green)

& if I say anything, I'm the arsehole, & immediately dismissed.

Same as anyone pointing out the obvious flaw in the official story re the killing of JFK (bullets don't boomerang & hit the target from the other side)

They've spun their crap so well, that immediately, on hearing facvtsm they put up blocks ("conspiracy nut"); instead of hearing "grassy knoll" as an obvious error in the official story, they treat it as "conspiracy theory". . .

I'm so thankful I was taught to question everything & look for corroborating data before coming to any conclusion, whether on my own or fed to me.

I's amazing how they've managed to get the generat8uions sdpo baffled that there's now about 400 million North Americans (USA & Canada) who,. for the majoruity, trabidly proclaim the lies they've been spoon-fed.

They eagerly await the dying off of our generation. Thankfully they don't see too much need to rush this natural process, as we're such a small minority we're easily dismissed as old kooks! :( & no danger to upsetting their ill- gotten applecart.

I must keep trying; my having seen every episode of Star Trek, the Original Series, compels me. . .

My other take on the situatoin relies more on others' cynicism, as I've noted the climate change criers are the ones burhning more fossil fuels than any of the rest of us!

Such as all those private jets going to Glasgow of that recent summit?

You picked up on that, too, all met by a phalanx of gas-burning stretch limousines at the airport, to whisk everyone to a 4-star hotel?

I look around for those who picked up on that & it's just you, me, & a couple professional comics.

& it's funny how all the leaders of the movement have recently spent 7-figures each buying ocean-front properties (That's like paying thousands for a sand castle as the tide is coming in)

Kind of how I figureed it would go if they actually believed the tripe they spew. So, hmm. . . what can I conclude by that. Thees people aren't stupid, just evil.

I love it! How should I cite this when I share to my recycling group?

I've got it as:
