Do not misunderstand me but however while once living things are still considered food your last 9 words become false. While meat, fish etc is still in demand the blood is on all of those who make it a market.:oops:
I kill the lettuce I eat, too. Not just the animals. ;) Anyway, I should have used "murder" instead of kill.

We also have a different words for certain things in Icelandic. For an example when people eat versus when animals eat. The word that we use for when animals eat is a direct ascendant of the word "eat" (Or where ever that word came from)

The word for humans dinning is the verb form of a table in Icelandic

Just a fun? fact.:D Oh and most of the time people here will use the informal word rather than the higher-class word when it comes to "what should we eat?":cool:

We have eat, dine, nosh, and many other words, all with slightly different implied meanings. I can't think of one that involves the table, though, except that I don't think anyone can "dine" without a table. Eating a sandwich over the sink guy-style isn't "dining".

It reminds of a market study that Sara Lee did years ago. They discovered to their surprise that something like 80% of their frozen dessert products were consumed within 3 feet of the freezer door. That had a profound effect on their packaging strategy – they moved to more pre-portioned options that were easy to grab and eat. People are too lazy to cut heir own pieces.

What is the cost/benefit justification of going longer?
Let's start with a 251st trimester abortion. The SSA wouldn't have to pay out whatever the aborted paid in. The government can spend that savings as wisely as they spend your tax dollars.

The lesser trimester abortions could be used to reduce the population of those career criminals taking up the jail space. In fact, abortion could be used in all felonies, effectively reducing the hard crime rate to zero.

p.s. I don't believe a damm word I typed.
 
I hear Jupiter's Great Red Vortex is diminishing too... --- I wonder if that's likewise down to us almighty 'orible humans?:(;)

All kidding aside, considering their putative political disparity, I find the 'ideological proximity' of Environmentalism and Judeo-Christian doctrine amusing... Said shared ideology being fear on to hatred of all that distinguishes our species:confused: -- Wadda worldo_O...

Best regards
HP:cool:

PS -- This post is meant merely as an observation of human nature in general-- as opposed to political or religious commentary:eek: - Thanks for understanding:)

"The adjustments being correlate almost perfectly with atmospheric CO2. NOAA is adjusting the data to match global warming theory."
Self-fulfilling philosophy in action. Pure scientific method. Put forth the hypothesis, make measurements, add a bias to the measurements, then publish the work. Have another believer replicate you work, using your figures and formula, and viola ... it works. Complete agreement.

Anything is possible. Look what happened when they shut down HAARP ... the "secret" weather controlling project ... no more bombarding the atmosphere with EM waves and the weather goes to hell in a hand basket. Global warming is decreasing. Hell, I had to run my heater once so far.

p.s. I don't believe anything I just typed, except running my heater.

But the mention of Jupiter sent me off to youtube ...

Someone tell me, please:

Is this fake news? I mean, Pravda and all.

It is difficult to tell these days.
I'll call it plausible being some of that is confirmable to have happened. What someone implies it to mean however is speculative at minimal.

You do have to factor in that for any AGW believer any single high point thermal event on any day anywhere in the world counts as proof that their beliefs are true yet any low point thermal events at any time or any location on the planet have to occur continuously for 30 - 50 or more years to count as a plausible climate cooling trend and even then they will be largely ignored as proof of anything and just be acknowledged as circumstantial localized events. :rolleyes:

Exactly. Something short term by the AGW crowds definition of a climate shift event, 30 - 50 years if it goes against their views, has significant value and is to be taken as proof of their convictions but if a reverse of that proclaimed event action happens elsewhere like the number of well below average cold events in far more warmer regions such as the numerous hard freeze and snow events in the southern US have happened over the years they mean nothing.

A 50+ F above average run of weather in the polar regions is proof of AGW change yet a similar run of -50 F below norms weather in a more equatorial region is of no significance and just a weather anomaly to be dismissed (or proof that AGW can make things colder too:rolleyes:) as that's just the weather doing what it does and no proof of any sort of climate change or lack thereof. :rolleyes:

If someplace got warmer it's proof. If it stayed the same that's proof and if it got colder it's proof too and thusly everything everywhere is proof its real and happening and it's only fools who can't see it. :confused:
