RE: “If it ain’t broke don’t fix it” – Your template for one sentence editorials keeps improving. That you encourage the ascendancy of lunacy is an example of environmental collateral damage. Kind of like “friendly fire”.

Sirs,

“It is not considered junk science anymore.”
Today
You

As a matter of fact, it is, it is.

First and foremost is the continuing egregious offense to Logic.

Would my mentioning Hoc post ergo propter hoc label me as an elitist? I hope so.

Here’s another bomb shell.

Correlation is not causation.

If I were to mention tautologies you would surely go bonkers.

One particularly hot August day in Washington, DC – Hot summer day in DC? When did they start? – President Clinton held a press conference in the Rose Garden. He began by saying it was hot because of Global Warming. Global Warming was caused by hot summer days. So there. He immediately went back to the Oval Office for a stress reduction session

I have a book – The Population Bomb – written in 1970 by Paul Ehrlich, P.HD. His major premise, that we would all be dead by the year 2000 has been irrefutably empirically refuted. His autopsy of our dead palnet would show a neck and neck race between starvation and freezing as the alleged perpetrators. Objects of interest, if you will.

I am chuckling – strike that – sneering because 13 years after we were supposed to have gone by-by we are still standing. The 6:00 AM temperature was 79 degrees and I remain calorically challenged. “Never mind”, as Emily Litella used to say.

Who else but Commissioner Kristin Jacobs to be the poster girl for your Save the Friggin’ Polar Bears campaign.

She is the high priestess of the Lysenko sect of the Church of St. Ned Lud. I search vainly, ever so vainly, for a gentle way of saying that she is dumber than a dead 12 volt battery. Alas, I’ll find rutting unicorns returning punts for the loutish Dolphins before I find that.

She says, with neither a sense of embarrassment nor one of satire, that if we were to “overlay” a picture of Typhoon Haiyan over South Florida we would see the errors of our ways. Having been blessed with this Damascus moment we would return to the glories of the Bronze Age.

Thank God for permitting the discovery of the word bullshit.

How about we “overlay” Krakatoa over Broward County? The problems of over development, diminishing resources, FCAT scores, drowning polar bears photo IDs, and exploding human populations, would not have been visited on us.

How about we “overlay” the last Ice Age over Broward County? It sure as Hell would solve the python problem in the Everglades, wouldn’t it? We wouldn’t have to worry about affordable housing anymore or diversity anymore. Besides, maybe it’s time to stir things up a bit. I like it when a new New River appears. Which reminds me…How old is the old New River?

Despite getting style points form the Bulgarian judge for diving into the empty end of the gene pool is a sure and certain way to wind up being overloaded with Head up her Ass thoughts.

One certain way to lessen the damage caused by burning fossil fuels would be for Broward County to ban all air conditioning.

It’s the least we can do for our planet.

Send that balloon up and see how long it takes for the ObamaCare Death Panels to put you on the short yellow bus to the booby hatch.
