A lot of what we see there hasn't changed for millions of years."

And you can prove this how? Where can I get one of these telescopes that can look backwards in time? My dollar store seems to be out of them.

Don’t need it.

Look up at the moon. Going from memory it is about 1.5 light seconds older by the time the light reaches your eye.

Global warming is not just global... It’s gone Universal... ;-)

Save Mars, ditch your SUV and drive a hybrid!!!
Don’t let Venus happen to Earth!

If things continue to warm at this rate in North America, it will be as warm as summer by June!

Free Willy!

Umm... okay. I’m done for now. :-)
