oh yeah, I read 11 of those and then crapped out on the post-mortem book with Sanderson. Really gripping story, to a point, amazingly huge world and vast number of characters.
Are the rainfall amounts forecast pretty close to right? Only 2 days with 1/2 an inch, then most of the rest a 1/4 or less, doesn't sound too bad.
I missed out on him. I read the Hobbit and all those when I was young. But for most of my adult life I was a spy thriller guy. Those series could go on for 12-15 books sometimes. Then they messed that up when the USSR went belly up. A few of the good writers made the pivot, but most didn't.
I think Im going to read them again now that I thought of them. Fkn creative people
Yeah its towards the end of wet season and the storms are fast. Today we got only 15 minutes of drops the size of gold balls
), they were huge drops looking out the window).
Sounds like a plan. I had a kind of late night with an early morning, so I'm getting a little sleepy myself. The coffee I brew here in the office is 80/20 decaf, so I may have to take my customers up on the offer of a real cup of coffee. They are doing a breakfast this afternoon. Waffles, bacon, sausage and ice cream. I think I will.
Oh that's a feast not to be missed!
The same people were in last night. When they were leaving, they saw my sandwich making stuff on my desk. Not being local, they hadn't thought to ask me to eat with them, and they felt bad. The first thing this morning, the head Mamma came in to ask me to come down and eat today.
I had heard that, but that graphic is sick.
The graph above is soberingly clear on that very point.
Whitewash much? It's already hotter than at any other time in the last 400,000 years, inter ice age spikes included. We also have more- much more- co2 in the atmosphere than at any time in the same period. NOT a coincidence, a point atmospheric and climate scientists are all but unanimous on.
The last ice age cut us down to something like 10K folks. That was cutting it pretty damn thin. I think as a species, getting through the hot climate ahead will be easier than fighting mile high glaziers. We might be growing our wheat in Canada soon though.
Our use of so much meat is adding to the problem too. The fuel {and land} used to grow the feed, but the actual release of methane by cows is not a joke. Each cow releases the equivalent of 4 tons of Co2. More for dairy cows, less for beef cows. With 1.5 billion cows in the world, that is a lot of green house gasses.
