Well why work on things that are REAL when you can spend all that money on FAKE things. When the stuff is FAKE, then you can just make up how much money it will cost. When it’s real, then you can come up with REAL dollar figures.
Anyway, I’m with you. I’m actually studying all of this right now in Astronomy class - a great class. The math is not easy though. But, just like the little ice age we had here in the 1600’s which was caused by the sun’s cycles - the sun is something we cannot control so if it is hotter or cooler, we will just have to deal with it.
I’m going to start stocking up on beanee-weenees now, just in case.
