The Iceman Goes


So a few things have me pondering today. One is a concern about global warming. A consequence of which has just been pointed out to me of which I had not even considered - but it makes sense. As the ice masses at the poles melt, the size of the seas change (okay i knew this) but this then impacts the rotation and tilt of the earth. If the rotation and tilt of the earth changes I am sure a lot of ecology physics as we know it will change.

I am kind of hoping the change is acute enough that the gravitational pull that holds us here releases certain of our species - those windbags called politicians - they are full of hot air and seem most likely to fly away first. 

I do think we would be better off without them don't you? I am not sure they serve any useful purpose unless you are into greed and war and in general taking advantage. Perhaps just a quick one time tilt and extra high spin speed (like that on my juicer) will fling them into space sooner rather later so they can hang out with those worms on Mars.

I am not a fan of global warming or politics. I am also not a fan of Teflon either - nor people coated in it or cloaked by it.  I probably should hibernate during this time of year.
