Thanks, OUC!
Still laughing over the fraction of people who know the fine line. That was truly funny.
And methinks here we see him at his awesome best.
I never knew that first one existed, but I do know that it definitely needs A LOT more divisions...
Regarding Climate Change -- we need to ensure that we not become Simpletons (low-resolution thinking) like that of so many Progressives who have the habit of reducing climate change to essentially one cause (anthropogenic) and once solution (taxation and its sundry forms including economically and environmentally debilitating "clean green solutions"). The climate is changing, it has been changing, it will continue to change. This is just reality. However - it is beneficial to seek out the various sources or inputs to that change, the types of changes, such as weather patterns that can last for decades, and how to address these changes -- including forms of adaptation.
As you may be aware, I have been involved in learning about Cycles of weather, here on earth and out in space, ie the sun and galaxy resulting in catastrophes.
Right?
Asking for a Friendly Dino long passed...
Volcano's change everthing also but they too are perturbed by the SUN !
no wonder the anchients worshiped the Sun?!?!?!
100% agree, the other argument I resonated with, was that we are MOVING through our galaxy, and we definitely move through areas with more meteors, and even other suns, blackholes, etc. ALL of this can have an impact on us, and it would be really hard to know how to attribute since we were not there.
My new "fun fact" is that we do not orbit the sun!
We orbit the center of gravity between the sun and Jupiter. (Technically, the center of gravity of our solar system, but it's mostly comprised of the Sun and Jupiter).
That's crazy...
Can I accurately assume that the center of orbit is based on the mass of the major objects in the solar system?
If so, Jupiter's mass is about 1/1047th of the sun and the rest of the system is smaller.
(Assuming wiki is correct) the sun is 99.86% of the mass of the solar system.

That 'orbital center' is close enough to the sun to be turned to a cinder on the way, imo. ;^)
