No scientist would draw a sine curve that does not cross Y=0 at x=0. It's not sloppiness. It's ignorance.

Today is the scheduled date for the French election. Darned if I or anyone can say how it will turn out, though I think our President is right -- the attack on three policemen on the Champs-Élysées would certainly seem to boost the chances of Marine le Pen. Of course, I could be wrong, and Barack Obama’s apparent favorite Emmanuel Macron, who says terrorism will “be a fact of daily life” that his countrymen will just have to get used to, will appeal to enough suicidal Frenchmen to carry the day.
March for Science
On Saturday, crowds at the laughably titled global March for Science in our capital city were rained upon. Mother Nature seems to be laughing so hard she’s crying at these marchers, most of whom have no idea of what they are marching for on a day after the power grids failed in San Francisco and Los Angeles and New York subways were shut down because of a power outage. We seem to need electrical engineers more than we need marchers for “science.”
In any event, here’s a romp through the 13 most absurd predictions from Earth Day in about 1970. My all-time favorite remains Stanford professor Paul Ehrlich’s:
“Most of the people who are going to die in the greatest cataclysm in the history of man have already been born… [By 1975] some experts feel that food shortages will have escalated the present level of world hunger and starvation into famines of unbelievable proportions. Other experts, more optimistic, think the ultimate food-population collision will not occur until the decade of the 1980s.”
In fact, obesity seems a bigger problem here and the world is better fed than ever in the past 50 years.

Knowledge without common sense is useless.
"Seeking to retain his position as CIA director under Hillary, Brennan teamed up with British spies and Estonian spies to cripple Trump’s candidacy. He used their phony intelligence as a pretext for a multi-agency investigation into Trump, which led the FBI to probe a computer server connected to Trump Tower and gave cover to [then-National Security Advisor] Susan Rice, among other Hillary supporters, to spy on Trump and his people."
Interesting...
France used to be a proud country. What happened? The left promised them free things and in return took away their self-esteem.
Beaten down and no longer knowing who it is, France became a breeding ground for the Christian-hating M*slims who want to convert it to their way of life.
That sign fits right in with Global Warming
My wife and I sat down in two open seats that were perpendicular to a seat that contain one of the ancient earth warriors. . .a woman, pushing 70 or more. She was wearing a straw hat which was adorned with some sort of Christmas tree bunting. She was chattering with (chattering at, really) the people across the way, who seemed totally uninterested in her endless ratchet-jawing.
She soon turned her attention to my most friendly wife. . as I began my internal silent scream of mental anguish, telepathically pleading for my wife not to engage. Hastily I erected my invisible fence of negatively charge ions set to high repel mode. . . too late. The aging hippy pounced upon my friendly-faced wife and had her in her clutches like a hungry cheetah on a baby gazelle. Her opening salvo was to announce to my friendly wife that she was headed to the march for science because "religious people, the God people and conservatives are fighting against science."
Suddenly, the baby gazelle unzipped her baby gazelle disguise and the Godzilla monster came out breathing a fireball that lasted until the aging hipster was reduced to a bubbling mass of goo dripping off the seat and onto the Metro train floor. Actually, Out of pity, I stepped in and declared the international Cone of Silence upon our two seats and asked the aging hippie to respect our space. It worked.
” “religious people, the God people and conservatives are fighting against science.”

Good for your wife——and this aging hippie got her ideas from out former Godless president.
