Heading Out To Sea On The Jouletanic

The wind is too much and the rowers have apparently quit trying to reach land. They are headed out to open sea with a strong tail wind, poor visibility, no anchor and possible ice.  Where will they end up?

What They Have To Look Forward Too

On the 1000:1 chance that the rowers make it through the next 2,000 km, here is what awaits them at the other end.

Are The Rowers In Trouble?

With a 20 MPH WSW wind, it is going to be very difficult to pull that boat back towards land. They don’t have an anchor, and may be in trouble.

Almost Crushed By Rotten, Decayed Ice

ScreenHunter_381 Jul. 29 12.06

David Barber says that the little remaining ice in the Arctic is rotten and decayed and will all melt soon. (He has been saying that for every year I can remember.)

Some of this rotten, decayed ice almost crushed the rowers.

We then woke to the crunching sound of a large ice berg nudging up against the boat. The ice berg had pinned our anchor line and hard as we tried, we couldn’t free the line. Because the berg was moving, the nose of the boat was starting to be pulled underneath it so we had to cut the line and in doing so say good bye to our anchor.

Do You Believe?

Debating on alarmist discussion boards, it quickly becomes clear that facts are irrelevant. You either believe, or you are a heretic. All scientists say that unless we give up carbon, the world is doomed. Nothing else to be discussed.

Obama Achieves Economic Justice

All races are equally poor now! The socialist dream.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Four out of 5 U.S. adults struggle with joblessness, near-poverty or reliance on welfare for at least parts of their lives, a sign of deteriorating economic security and an elusive American dream.

“If you do try to go apply for a job, they’re not hiring people, and they’re not paying that much to even go to work,” she said. Children, she said, have “nothing better to do than to get on drugs.”

While racial and ethnic minorities are more likely to live in poverty, race disparities in the poverty rate have narrowed substantially since the 1970s, census data show.

Early 19th Century Climate Modelling

Astronomer Sir William Herschel observed over two hundred years ago that the weather gets cold during deep solar minimums. This puts him about 211 years ahead of current government climate scientists.

A Simple Plan To Save The Planet

ScreenHunter_370 Jul. 29 09.06

The president tells us that the excessive lifestyle Americans enjoy, is destroying the climate. He knows this because it was hot in DC one afternoon a few weeks ago, and because there was a hurricane last year.

NOAA tells him that last year was the second most extreme year on record, based on a nonsensical statistic which counted mild winter days as  being “extreme” – twice.

The solution is simple. Evil American energy companies produce fossil fuel, because evil Americans keep buying it. If all progressives (particularly at universities) would simply disconnect (I prefer the word “divest“) their transportation, heating and electrical systems from the fossil fuel powered grid, they could save the planet.

If progressives really cared, they would do this. The power is in their hands to save Gaia.
