Plus your great-great grandchildren might face great migrations further inland, starvation, due to climate change, and global warming as ocean levels rise, until the end of the widespread droughts in some areas, and mass flooding in others.

I turn to ambient music, and try to meditate my sadness away.

Onward Minimum wage, I support it, but my Libertarian friend is against it, and says that it people should be able to tell companies what they will work for. I told him that that would only drive wages down further, because of the competition that would emerge to get the jobs.

This week the media is saying we should all not fear having a little bit of fat, and then next week they will be giving diet tips. Just be yourself, if you realize you want to be an even healthier version of yourself then so be it, or not.

Sure is.

Well oddly enough, as much as Carl Sagan is admired his voice annoys me. I would love to read transcripts of his speeches though.

They seem to be passing the reins onto China and Russia. It's sad.

Yes, it would be nice.

Oh that's interesting, hope that you find out a way to get rid of it.

No, it was not justified. The US had a pretty new weapon, and they wanted to try it out, Japan happened to be a prime target politically. It doesn't make it right.

Thanks @thenewgreen, Hubski is very useful already for finding interesting content. It's growing at a good pace. Your lurkers will one day become your commenters.

As I said before they way to go also is to get bloggers to write about Hubski. This will help greatly. A tweet is only beneficial a short time, a blog remains in listed in search engines for as long as the blog exist.

Just because a government scholar comes out with their opinion, it doesn't make it the correct opinion. I think that Congress is very much to blame.
