Dear reverend,
THere is a bet going on right now. I have money on this, and am going to make sure I get it. It has to hit 100 pages even with at least 2 people permanently banned from sailnet.
I am practically counting the coin in my pocket.

I just had to share this .......
The fallout
"Global warming ... it's enough to keep a person up at night. Indeed, a growing number of people have literally worried themselves sick over various environmental doomsday scenarios. Their worry even has a name: eco-anxiety. Melissa Pickett, an eco-therapist with a practice in Santa Fe [in New Mexico], sees anywhere from 40 to 80 eco-anxious patients a month. They complain of panic attacks, loss of appetite, irritability and unexplained bouts of weakness, sleeplessness and 'buzzing,' which they describe as the eerie feeling that their cells are twitching."
--Justin Nobel, of the Columbia News Service, in Sunday's Rutland (Vt.) Herald

Still and all children, it's nice to see the RRWs society in fine voice over at the dems and reps thread.  Always nice to know that the terminally loopy have a place to stay and that it's not just us BHLs who are barking mad.

Us fascists don't bark, and our bite is far worse. On the other hand, the howling of a beleagured lefty can wake up Rip Van Winkle!

CruisingDad,
Do not solicit thread input to the solar Lady thread. Do not encourage Giu to photoshop it. This will violate the terms of my wager. And you really do not want to be getting between a Dutchman and his money! Just let nature take her slow, methodical course, sort of like recharging a battery with a solar panel!

Thanks, but i saw some of the discussion of the wager, so i realize you're an interested party. I just can't help checking in on that *^&%# thread, and then of course i hate having done so. It's not your fault i have no self-control in this matter. It is like a train wreck: awful, but i can't look away. (Although, there has been some very good information on the thread from you and a couple others, which of course only makes it harder to 'not look'  )

I'm not sure but I think the Anchoring page might catch it in a few weeks.
