LOL, I knew you’d appreciate the absurdness of it all!

It sounds as though Ollie Milman might be a racist. Why “white” settlers? Why not Bush and Trump’s ancestors? Kill two birds with one stone.

..that black people don’t want to go to national parks?

Yes, yes it's all those "lynchin' trees" that the "white settlers" lynched them on!

Oh, the huge manatee!

“Jamestown, the first English settlement in the US, is surrounded by waters rising at twice the global average and may be beyond rescue.”

We’ve discovered a new type of water!

YES, man-made climate changeTM has made water, (H2O), combine with Helium, (He), to make water rise MUCH FASTER!

It's the end of the world as we know it!

I live next to Rocky Mountain Nat. Park. It has some glaciers. Itty bitty glaciers that have been receding for 12,000 years from the 3 miles of ice covering everything in sight that they were then. But the itty bitty glaciers us white eyes found here 130 years ago are still here.

When I first moved here 30 years ago some clown had NPR on the jobsite radio. They reported, via the Sierra Club, that tourists walking on the tundra trails on Trail Ridge road were destroying all the delicate tundra plants in RMNP. I thought “WTF? I was up there two days ago and saw “delicate tundra plants” growing up through cracks in the asphalt paths breaking the paths apart!”

Not to mention those paths amount to about one one billionth of all the tundra in RMNP much less the rest of the Rocky Mountains. That was the day that I knew the environmentalists were 100% full of green steamy horse shi’ite. Ten years before they started the CO2 baloney.

“I live next to Rocky Mountain Nat. Park.”

How pretty. And open!

Well, it’s open if you can afford the entrance fee. ;-)

Which reminds me, I’ll soon be eligible for the free Senior Pass.

Thanks for reminding me! :(

Yeah. They really give it away with that sentence.

Nonetheless there are plenty of idiots out there who will believe this just like they believe wolves and grizzlies are on the verge of extinction.

Then they will send in their last ten dollars to the Sierra Club thinking they have done their part.

No con man on the planet is as skilled at fearmongering as these ecoterrorist whackos.

No one loathes the sierra club pukes as much as I do.

I was thinking of the pine air and openness.

Apologies.

Sorry, just messing with you.

Yes, it is piney and fresh and open. It’s a beautiful place.

From that day forward I’ve never believed a thing they’ve said and I’ve always been right by believing the opposite.

Even the founder of the Sierra Club has disavowed them hasn’t he?

I camped alone by a lake near Pikes Peak one time, long ago. Was up all hours looking at a small creature swimming along in the middle of the lake, trying to convince myself that this was the American smaller cousin of the Loch Ness monster, Nessie.

The moon was full that night, and it was absolutely breathtaking there, seeing Pikes Peak lit by moonlight.

Hi Oliver, the Maunder Minimum is going to repeat. And damn soon.

The North Atlantic is cooling incredibly fast, and the sun is going down for a long nap.

Get science

The mountains are amazing under a full moon.
The stars are pretty amazing when there’s a new moon.

They are the very definition of scum. In fact scum is too nice of a word to use to describe them. Corrupt and evil works better.
