The Post-1998 Hiatus Plods On…Regionally. North America (180-0°N, 15-60°N) has been characterized as a “major cooling center” by the authors of a new paper (Gan et al., 2019) published in Earth and Space Science.

The following is excerpted from Appendix I in the novel State Of Fear by Michael Crichton. It’s not too long but well worth the read, especially in today’s crazy climate.

Imagine that there is a new scientific theory that warns of an impending crisis, and points to a way out.

The early Earth was an infernal place: hot, roiling, rapidly rotating and bombarded by space debris, including a Mars-size body whose impact created the moon.

That same impact also turned the entire surface of the newly formed Earth into a molten magma ocean. Now, new research finds that the rapid spin of the planet may have influenced how this molten sea cooled.

Richard Smith, CBE, FMedSci, British medical doctor businessman and former editor of the BMJ until 2004, explains how he was harmed by the influenza vaccine:

We all like to live our lives according to structured sets of rules, sometimes these are rules are hard and fast like laws, such as speed limits and in others they are subjective and more aligned with faith based values which have a strong tendency to stem from religious beliefs.

Without these, helping link and bind us together, society falls apart and everything quickly descends into a hellish free for all, where selfishness and dog eat dog rules reigns and only the strong survive.

The British had a long tradition of striking tokens for political purposes. There were political tokens against the American Revolution. Some pictured Thomas Paine being hanged for writing his Common Sense. There was Climate Change back then as well and it resulted in massive riots over shortages of food.

James McGinn is correct that Linus Pauling (pictured) overlooked a critical fact about the water molecule.  But does James really know what Pauling and I and most everyone overlooked?  For he has not replied to the question of the following comment.

Scientists have found evidence of a huge blast of radiation from the Sun that hit Earth more than 2,000 years ago.

The result has important implications for the present, because solar storms can disrupt modern technology.

In a time of confusion and loss of faith in corrupt scientific authorities (and other bodies) the antidote is to look within ourselves and work on re-establishing our core values:

I received a question about Illuminism, Meritocracy and Propertarianism, and I have been planning to write about this anyway:

Don’t you think the Meritocracy advocated in the books is quite different from the Propertarianism you are currently fashioning? Have you changed your mind?

Global action is required to tackle the web’s “downward plunge to a dysfunctional future”, its inventor Sir Tim Berners-Lee has told the BBC.

He made the comments in an exclusive interview to mark 30 years since he submitted his proposal for the web.
