Dang! Too hot, no..too cool!! Which is it? An ice age in the middle of global warming? How will you know what to wear each day??!!
240 square kilometers may be big but it will be dwarfed by the next eruption of the Yellowstone cauldera.
Uh-oh. I just emptied our pantry for a cub scout food drive. It doesn't matter, though. I'd rather die than have to eat those Lima beans.
The last super volcano occurred before man invented either of those religions.
Either?
Probably "both" have been a better choice than "either."
there are a number of supervolcanoes around the globe, and all of them seem to be active in some way or another. but what we should be worrying about is mega tsunamis. they are caused by landslides on volcanic islands.
This is just something else for liberals/socialists to use to rally supporters.
They've already got doom and gloom from the great global warming hoax.
We live on the earth and things will always happen. If we worry about everything, then we won't enjoy the life we have; and life is too short.
There is no such thing as life without risk, so don't sweat the stuff you can't control, and don't expect to control something that mother nature has been dealing with for eternity.
Note the date...
I share the same concern as you and I'm totally serious. Within a five mile radius of my house are at least 12 large, sprawling cemeteries. I'm not even counting the puny "town graveyards" that you find near Town Hall or the small church graveyards. I'm talking graveyards that are so large that they have access roads going through them.
This is a very serious concern for me. Million of acres of prime real estate are already occupied by cemeteries in this country alone. I think this is wrong. Our land should be for the living, not the dead.
Cremation is one option but many people (including myself) are squeamish about having our bodies cremated after we shed our mortal coil. For me, it conjures up images of hell.
I think there should be another option, and that is, to allow our bodies to decompose in a "mulching pile" and then be used as fertilizer. Now I'm not sure it is an appetizing prospect for the rest of us to ingest food that was fertilized by the bodies of our loved ones - either directly or indirectly (by way of cattle grazing).
So what I propose is that our decomposing bodies be used to fertilize golf courses. In this manner, our bodies can provide enjoyment for others as they walk across the lush, green grasses of a local golf course without having to endure the prospect of having to eat us.
When I die, I don't want to be buried in a pine box and take up valuable real estate space in some spooky cemetery. Instead, allow me to decompose on my local golf course.
Well, so much for global warming...LOL
