Complete crap.
Anyone with any sense knows it was the heated political rhetoric of the teabaggers combined with man made global warming due to capitalist greed and gun owning SUV drivers.
Another attempt to bust the Seismographers Union.
Damn you Scott Walker!
LOL! Good one, I snagged that one.
Up from the depths
Thirty stories high
Breathing fire
His head in the sky
Godzilla!
Godzilla!
Godzilla!
And Godzookie....
I have relatives in California.
So, you’re right. That is the bright side.
“Godzilla”
(by Blue Oyster Cult):
With a purposeful grimace and a terrible sound
He pulls the spitting high tension wires down
Helpless people on a subway train
Scream bug-eyed as he looks in on them
He picks up a bus and he throws it back down
As he wades through the buildings toward the center of town
Oh no, they say he’s got to go
Go go Godzilla, yeah
Oh no, there goes Tokyo
Go go Godzilla, yeah
Rinji news o moshiagemasu!
Rinji news o moshiagemasu!
Godzilla ga Ginza hoomen e mukatte imasu!
Daishkyu hinan shite kudasai!
Daishkyu hinan shite kudasai!
Oh no, they say he’s got to go
Go go Godzilla, yeah
Oh no, there goes Tokyo
Go go Godzilla, yeah
History shows again and again
How nature points up the folly of men
Godzilla!
Carl Rove and George Bush at it again. First the hurricane machines and now this. They are determine to undermine all four years of the Obama presidency.
Has anyone seen Capt. Nemo lately?
Someone playing around one the control rooms for the Osterhagen Key and set a few off?

Thank you, moderador.
You and others will be most interested in the following article by Michael Crichton:
“Fear, Complexity, & Environmental Management in the 21st Century.”
Here is the tease:
Fear, Complexity, & Environmental Management in the 21st Century
(An excellent article by Michael Crichton, which discusses Chernobyl, Yellowstone, the Club of Rome, Y2k and more.)
I am going to challenge you today to revise your thinking, and to reconsider some fundamental assumptions. Assumptions so deeply embedded in our consciousness that we don’t even realize they are there.
But the assumptions I am talking about today represent another kind of map—a map that tells us the way the world works. Since this is a lecture on complexity, you will not be surprised to hear that one important assumption most people make is the assumption of linearity, in a world that is largely non-linear. I hope by the end of this lecture that the meaning of that statement will be clear. But we won’t be getting there in a linear fashion.
Some of you know I have written a book that many people find controversial. It is called State of Fear, and I want to tell you how I came to write it. Because up until five years ago, I had very conventional ideas about the environment and the success of the environmental movement.
The book really began in 1998, when I set out to write a novel about a global disaster. In the course of my preparation, I rather casually reviewed what had happened in Chernobyl, since that was the worst manmade disaster in recent times that I knew about.
What I discovered stunned me. Chernobyl was a tragic event, but nothing remotely close to the global catastrophe I imagined. About 50 people had died in Chernobyl, roughly the number of Americans that die every day in traffic accidents. I don’t mean to be gruesome, but it was a setback for me. You can’t write a novel about a global disaster in which only 50 people die.

Also, Michael knew global warming was/is a hoax and gave many speeches about it.
I for one miss you and your brain, Michael.
I had an older lib tell me we didn’t have a problem with “global warming” until we started punching holes in the atmosphere with rockets and yes, she was serious.
Your link appears to be dead.
Oh crumbs...let me take a look........
Will get back to you.
