OK!! Everybody pay attention!

Lesson for today:

1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.

2. The sun is a ball of fire that controls the climates of all its planets.

3. The earth is one of the sun’s planets.

4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.

5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.

Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?

Oh, this is so easy.

The less-than-specks in congress make other less-than-specks change lesser-than-less-than-speck light bulbs to ones that contain a lot of mercury.

I recall back when there was such furor over the polar icecaps melting there was a single report that the polar icecaps on Mars were also melting... What an amazing coincidence! I only saw that report once... I guess that since there was no way to blame the Martian icecaps melting on American SUVs and coal powered power plants, it wasn't worth reporting. Especially since that would mean that "global warming" (that's how it was named back then) might be caused by some outside source... Like the sun.
