Something else for Al Gore to worry about
December 19, 2008
letter to the editor
I don't know if anyone else has noticed, but I have detected a new crisis that I have named "the daylight change crisis". I first noticed it sometime around the end of June this year. I started paying attention and created computer models and sure enough I was right! We are losing daylight at an astonishing rate. Each day we are losing approximately 2 minutes of day light and my computer models predict total darkness by next July.
I have been able to detect this phenomenon around the entire Northern Hemisphere. And here is the scary part: the day light appears to be leaking to the Southern Hemisphere.
I thought I should bring it to the attention of great scientists like Al Gore so he can help solve this new crisis.
Richard Strimple
It would be funny to see if we can get this to take off.. create a new meme, time recession.. proof of man destroying the time/space continuum.
I think it can as long as we all say “Klatu Barekto Neckto” together or at least something similar.
I tuned in when Rush was talking about this and wondered what the heck was going on? Thanks.
“Call to Barack’s Necktie”?
Between the days getting shorter and the over abundance of that toxic liquid dihydrogenoxygen ( nasty lethal killer that it is) we are all doomed.
It’s George W. Bush’s fault!!!
Before you know it, the world will freeze solid.
Problem solved!
This needs significant investigation, to be funded by more significant grants and taxes.
...we are all doomed.
Before you know it, the world will freeze solid.
It's already in the works. Earth's poles long overdue for reversal
I've been working on the daylight loss problem (can't reveal how or with what), and a solution is due in three days, guaranteed.
Keep taking your measurements, and if the days don't start getting longer again by Monday, 12/22, I'll gladly refund whatever money you sent me.
I was quoting the move The Day the Earth Stood Still. That was the phrase to keep the robot Gort from going on a rampage.
Oh! but it not just the minutes that are leaking into the southern hemisphere, it is the daylight that is going with the minutes. We will be in total darkness and no time left to fix the problems. Can the Southern hemisphere find place to store that much extra sunlight? Will they want to sell it back to us, much like they do now with oil? I'm confused and very concerned. The time leakage will be especially had hit on the children. They will grow old faster in the northern hemisphere than in the southern, requiring them to taken on adult repsonsiblilities before they are ready; you know, at about age 35.
This disturbing decrease in the amount of sunlight is undoubtedly caused by human beings, and their use of vehicles powered by internal combustion engines. I've noticed that the amount of sunlight seems to stay relatively stable throughout most of the day. Then, between the hours of 5 and 6:30 PM each afternoon, there is a marked increase in the number of vehicles on most major roads. At the same time, there is a steady decrease in sunlight, until we find ourselves once again in a state of darkness by early evening. Coincidence? I think not!
Some “Daylight change deniers” claim that even though the days continue to shorten, they are shortening at a decreasing rate, and are expected to actually lengthen in the next few months.
However, the overwhelming scientific consensus is that this is just a short term reversal, and that in six months or so days will resume their shortening. A crash pogrom is required.
Mr. Strimple would be flabbergasted to learn that here in Alaska, we are losing daylight at the rate of THIRTEEN minutes a day! We’re DOOOOOOMED!!
