ahh ... but each parent will still be driving their kids to the grade schools and middle schools and the older kids will still be driving to high school. It's always someone else that has to change their ways. When I see the student parking lots at the high schools empty as the students kids are all riding bikes, walking or taking buses ... when I see no lines of cars at the grade schools and middle schools as the kids reject mom and dad driving them and insist on walking, biking and busing then I'll believe that a change will come. I can't help but recall how the baby boomers were going to reject oil, cars, war toys, violence and etc. and upon reaching maturity failed miserably at living up to what they had protested. "Ahh but I was so much older then I'm younger than that now."
Thank you.
Global Warming which has now morphed into Climate Change has its ideological roots in the 1980s. Many prominent scientists, researchers, and public figures made dramatic predictions on what would happen to the planet as CO2 induced warming proceeded the way their models postulated. My now penalty boxed comment had four snippets from the article below. It’s been +30 years since the first of those predictions were laid down in the public square. What’s happened to their confident postulations since then? History does not seem to be tipping in their favor. Now we’re going to develop school programs on that. Read the article. Credibility is rightly slipping in my opinion.

Miss. You are a freak. Wait until something happens to you or you need a cop.
I don't really think it's insects, more like some damage insects are doing. It's definitely not wood--black and hard and flexible, can straighten the little pieces and they bounce back to half circle shape. And it's been happening for a few weeks, before the rain. Never happened before--I've lived in the house for 37 years.
Maybe people should stop reproducing and building houses full of wood and non-biodegradable items. Bringing you own bags to traders Joe’s is good to feel
better about yourself, it actually it would be better to use that paper bag for 10cents instead of buying that roll of plastic bags for your trash! Just sayin.... otherwise just realize humans are a plague on this earth and over population is a major problem. Cry all about global warming - state promoting no reproduction!
I have a 10x Hastings triplet, yes, and these little things do not look like anything organic under the lens. They have no surface features I can see at that magnification, but the ends are kind of splayed the way a wire cutter would create a pinched end. They seem like plastic. Certainly not wood fibers. Always in this semicircle shape.
We really enjoyed the launch! It was spectacular! I'm hoping for more photos here.
I've never heard seals barking at the bowl.
Now they want "universal pre-school" - everyone under the age of five has to be snatched from their parents homes and stuck into state brainwashing centers, which will of course only coincidentally hire thousands of new teacher union members. Why did you vote for these people?
Cant fire the school administrators because someone has to carry out all the teacher protection statutes in the 48,000 section Ed Code, written into law by the teachers unions and our "education" legislators like Hannah-Beth Jackson, now referred to as "their" legislstion in her latest bout of total lunacy. No more binary 'he's and shes" - it is now only to be referred to according to HB Jackson fiat - they or theirs. Singulars become automatic plurals. Jane is going on a vacation - they are going on a vacation.
Schools do teach critical thinking - criticize anything that disagrees with the progressive agenda.
Kids and society would be better served if we taught Critical Thinking. People who can form pertinent questions rather than regurgitate memorized crap are societies only chance.
I would like to see more people hired for many reasons. However, more hiring also means that more benefits need to be paid. Which, I've been told in the past, can ultimately cost more than overtime. Don't know how true that is, and don't think it should be as much of an issue with firefighters, as more people available to fight fires makes good sense. I do find it sad that the retirement is set the way it is. Retiring from one area, and then collecting more high end retirement from others.
I've had exactly the same questions based on seeing launches from various locations - the speeds I've computed (based on when we hear the rumble) always varies. I'm not a physicist but assume the velocity variations are due to both ground and atmospheric effects. Low altitude and higher altitude paths would all be affected by topography (canyons, mountains), temps, winds, etc. at those altitudes. Multiple paths could perhaps superimpose constructively or destructively. Under certain "weather" conditions at home, I can easily hear seals barking and concerts at the bowl while at other times, the amplitudes are greatly diminished or nada.
Will the King Tide Sunday and Monday impact S.B. shoreline and surfing?
The lack of scientific knowledge about the local area's geology, and what is normal, is troubling. There has been oil & gas here for thousands of years, so sometimes the normal accompanying smells of oil & gas are prevalent. You may be smelling hydrogen sulfide, which is normal in heavy crude, which is what the Ellwood oil field is. There are farms here, so sometimes there are farms smells, like freshly applied fertilizer. And sometimes, you can smell aviation fuel from the airport, or "rot" from the slough.
