   Meanwhile in Arkansas, around 1000 birds died from AFW (Anthropogenic Fire Works):

   Strange they didn’t try and attribute that one to AGW, or FlashForward… oh, and some fish died.. I think it was from the cold, but they daren’t mention that.

   Today’s news from Australia is that an area the size of New South Wales (more than 800,000 square kilometers – 312,000 square Miles)is under flood in Queensland – and due to get worse with another cyclone on the way. There are already more than 200,000 flood effected persons in Queensland alone. This number doesn’t include flood effected in other states.

   What these news reports won’t tell you is that only 2% of Australia’s total used water is for domestic consumption – the rest – 98% is used by industry and farming
