About damn time...

"We are all skeptics now. It appears that the UN is now acknowledging what an increasing number of scientists who study the climate have come to realize: Predictions of manmade catastrophic global warming are simply unsustainable."

James Inhofe (R-OK)


The livestock sector is...responsible for 18 percent of greenhouse gas emissions measured in CO2 equivalent. This is a higher share than transport. (emphasis mine -ed)

Report, UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change

The new furnace...

... is in. -Ish. As in, so much shorter than the old furnace that it can't be connected to the existing ductwork, BUT there it sits, connected to everything else so that the basement is now 110 degrees while the temperature upstairs slowly drops and it begins to snow in the living room.

Okay, I'm exagerrating to make it interesting. Still, it's cool upstairs and really warm downstairs. The upstairs will get the benefit of radiant heat from the warm basement and we have space heaters, so it's no biggie. We'll stay home.

The old unit was five foot somethin-r-other...the new unit is...four feet tall, maybe? Likin' so far...
