You choose to slightly misunderstand the vast majority of scientists, ( they don't understand or agree with each other 100%) and think that the opposite of your actions has to involve conspiracy theories.... This doesn't make sense. Not all change is caused by Man!!!! That's where the problem lies- this mistake generated the idiocy of thinking it's easy to reverse global warming, going around telling everyone what to do. There are positive feedback loops involved that we don't yet understand. There are negative feedback loops involved that we don't yet understand. The natural forces involved are beyond our comprehension. We are a passenger in, not the driver of, this runaway vehicle. Sure, we've had a play with the steering wheel, and we are increasingly being asked to do so, but we have no control over the brakes....

Hmm....read again. We have affected the climate, and changed it. This is obvious. OK? What is ridiculous and arrogant is to assert that ALL climate change is down to us. Forces far greater than we can really imagine have been fighting each other for millions of years, the result being a constantly shifting climate. All we have done is added a warming bias to this, but who knows what the climate would have done anyway? Was it about to go into a warmer period, which we have now exaggerated, or was it about to enter a cooler period, which we have stopped?

The climate has varied enormously over the millennia. It's not that we have affected the climate that offends me. It's the arrogance that asserts that _all_ climate change is all down to Man's activities that offends me, because this clearly is not true.

They won't dare to stand in front of me when I'm driving my new Kia Starmer......

Ah no- MK- I hail from Kiddy- friends and family still there, and bought somewhere in Worcestershire earlier this year, so one day hoping to move, after turning a village hall into a house, but the cost of materials is now crazy......

I think you're right- the gulf stream may well move or stop- compare the climate of the Isle of Lewis to Churchill, Canada.....same latitude..... that's what we will lose....

I was monitoring my local Weatherunderground stations here in Milton keynes, and they all read 42˚ plus, but where not listed as the record, so they must be inaccurate, but if they are, then why do they post results?

Why are they so restricted? Is it still covid-related?

What? Only online like Ebay?

Anyone tried to do this? We lost a clutch in London last week, and the voice recognition software couldn't make sense of our address, and it texted us, so we replied with the correct spelling, thus, on a dumb phone, cutting the call !!!! And round you go again..... I fired of a query to the RAC about a number to talk to a human, and I just got a reply that only hinted at a solution, and, hilariously and ironically, the letter proved their non- understanding of the situation by telling me I could always "use the RAC App" !!!!!!!! What a bunch of useless morons run most of this country's customer care. The respondent -always- has a foreign name- are they not even in the country?

Mea culpa.

Riishi and Liz chatting after the election?

......got carried away with the DJ 'feel' of "It's been up there as No.6 for a few weeks"...... ...maybe I should have gone with the Prisoner theme and claimed I was a free man...

Couldn't get to the top spot because of bloody Joe Dolce....

Nor me- I passed on it since it's nowhere near as nice as my current example. Just kidding...:-(

I once wrote to Jim to ask if he could fix it for me to be on 'It's a Knockout'. Seemed a good idea at the time....

Just hold a convex lens over the camera lens. Job done.

.....this is in the 'Stuff to Make us Laugh' section, after all....:-)

I agree - just the word order threw everyone....shame. Mind you, "and were your from" was ignored....newbies scrutinised, regulars' mistakes disregarded? The normal human condition?

Ok- this sent by a client in Ontario. I'm still laughing. Don't watch if you can't cope with swearing.... Bye Bye Boris - YouTube.webloc

I'd say it was found in the road, after having been driven over many times, by the look of the damage...

Oh right- now I've got to look at all my 1929's and 1861's again...more varieties very day!!

My phone runs on logs.
