I Have Been Waiting A whole Year to do This
As 2024 began, I noticed something which formed for me a vital image of the potential falsity of the whole climate catastrophe scenario once pushed on the world by nutty scientists and others of dubious referential integrity (in its more general, open meaning, suborned these days by computer geekdom [or geekery, if you prefer] to...
