A rising temperature even if it's just for 300 years, is a big deal to humans. Can we survive if? Of course. Ignoring it is foolish. There are other things we control more that are of bigger concern.

Do you think that a complex system like the planet operates in a purely linear way? Still a troubling trend in temperature.

Our club, like many i expect, was all volunteer run and managed. No one drew a penny of pay. We carried 30K in the bank from year to year in a club with 1500 kids between the intramural and travel programs. The issues arose mostly because people were so invested in their kids, for both better and worse.

Baker is getting a 1st for sure. Baker is probably more highly thought of than Josh by most people. As far as the underlined, do you expect them to say he sucks?

I'd never undersell doing that but I don't do that anymore: I do have the merit badge from my 8 years as year-round travel soccer coach. At that time, I served on the board of the local soccer club as the travel chair and some other positions. And yeah, the board stuff took a lot of time, but it was so easy because travel sports parents are the bestest! The coaching was a privilege and the one of the most rewarding things I've ever done. I'll never regret that and anyone who can do it, should.

And 24 Magee and Gary Busey and etc. Just because Tom and others copied my work doesn't make it theirs.

Stick with this: You're not that smart. We all know it to be true. I was Ben Franklin before Tom was Rich in Ohio.

You all know who I am. Maybe not you because you're not that smart.

I agree 100% on that. It's way to early for any of them. We have a project QB. So far I like the project but there's more to go. Mayfield, Rosen, and Darnold were supposed to be pro-ready. 2 of 3 have looked like pros but I don't know where they are headed long term. Jackson is his own thing. Pretty awesome. Count me as someone who thought he'd suck in the pros except as a gadget player.

And Chubb and Hunt.

Whoever you are.

Do the things you believe will make a difference, once you acknowledge there's a lot we can do as individuals (personal conduct), a community/country/world (voting, donations, activism, advocacy). What I do vs what you do is unique to our means, where we live, and our priorities on the environment. I dedicate most of my volunteer labor to a non-environmental cause but our environmental $$ donations focus on a clean water group regionally, an animal wildlife preservation fund, and a rain forest preservation organization. On voting, I like candidates who take issues of deforestation, pollution, and overuse of fossil fuels seriously, and if anyone would do it, I'd love for someone to promote nuk-u-lar energy. That said, most candidates don't have rational environmental policies so it rarely makes a difference in my voting.

Merry Christmas to all. And I know some of you will relate:

Who said, "The Dems are against nuclear because they think it's too dangerous. That's idiotic given how clean and safe it is relative to almost every other power source, but that's the reason." This thread is a circle jerk of boys debating who will get to eat the climate change cookie. I don't bother with it much.

If you wanted to make that joke, you'd have made one change to it, moran.

And I think you're stupid. I prefer my island. Go dock your boat somewhere else!

Thanks for standing in judgment of me. And note: Your judgment means nothing to me. So blow me. Merry Christmas to you too Foxx. We will be celebrating Jolabokaflod tonight and rocking around the in-laws tree tomorrow!

Lighten up Francis. I can hold the thought of how someone dresses and their politics in my head, all at the same time. There's no war going on. The end is not nigh. And Trump could look a lot better.

Link?

You think somehow this looks bad and Trump looks good in a suit? Gobble his knob all you want politically but Trump is only above Boris Johnson in presidential/PM fashion ratings...and after googling for suit images of Boris to post to prove my point, I take that back. He looks a mess but his suits are pretty good. Trump looks a mess.

That's a question I ask myself a fair amount. Hopefully you do too.

We will top out soon enough. Free trade has seen to a growth in wealth that is taking care of population problems long-term. In the short term, we have lots of other environmental problems to tackle, and the anti-climate change people would ignore those actual problems by mocking the extremes. It's embarrassing for you.

DR will be here to thumbs up your stellar contribution any moment.

Only arrogant and irresponsible people would suggest that humans haven't and don't harm the environment. The extremes are idiots and I don't care about them. But what we do matters.

My Idiot-to-English translator isn't working. I'll try again later. Moran.
