Darwin’s Forklift Brigade

Darwin ponders the question of just how many drivers does it take to operate a forklift?  Operate poorly, he adds.  By his count, four would be the correct number here.  One to steer, two to ride side-saddle, and one to bail off the rear thereby nearly getting his genomes crushed.  Thankfully, number four had a bit of the crabbing, scrabbling gene which barely allowed his two most important jewels to survive.

Natural selection deems that some individuals serve as a warning to others. Who are we to disagree? The next generation, ever and anon, is descended from the survivors

Now That The Rains Have Come To California…

California has a fire problem, but mostly it has a ‘liberal’ problem.  Donald Trump pointed out the obvious–if California managed their forests better (and without all of liberal greenie dogma), fire danger and fire damage could be lessened.  Two New York Times articles exemplify what you get when you mix science and Trump Derangement Syndrome – a murderous stew of passive-aggressive self deception.

AGW – ‘Effing Cold Turkey Day

From the Washington Post, “The Northeast endured its most frigid Thanksgiving in decades, and record cold persists on Black Friday.”  But, hey.  The latest White House Climate Report says “We’re All Gonna Die!!” from Climate Change.  It’s nice to know that the ‘Deep State’ still thrives in the bowels of government bureaucracy.  Too bad they forgot to include “The Chill of Solar Minimum” in their calculations or the report may have read, “Trade your shorts and flip-flops in for some long underwear and mukluks.”

Thanksgiving and Black Friday 2018 will be remembered for a record-shattering cold snap across the Northeast United States. An air mass more typical of midwinter pushed in just in time for Thanksgiving, and temperatures plummeted even further Friday morning.

Numerous cold records were established in New England, New York and even southward into the northern Mid-Atlantic as temperatures tanked into the teens, single digits and even below zero in a few spots,

It all started the afternoon and evening before Thanksgiving.
