It’s good news. A healing. An unexplicable healing. Even better. And on a night when I’m in an uncommonly delicious mood, too delicious to blog, even. Back tomorrow ;-)

Federal power grabs -- many by regulatory agencies that don't answer to voters, others by politicians who are too stupid or corrupt to care about the long term implications of their policy decisions -- are driving up our taxes and eroding our personal liberties.
It's time to return our country to the Constitutional principles that made it great. Support the Federalism Amendment.

Oh, Kirsten! You’ve hit one of my “hot” buttons.
My take on that article? Why the ****, since we ADMIT that we don’t really know the reasons for the ozone layer’s depletion and now its recovery, are we bumbling around passing laws and protocols and stirring up angst over what might happen, and what might be the cause and the cure?
I think mankind greatly oversetimates our impact on this globe we live on, and that cycles of warming and cooling and depletion and recovery have been taking place for eons on periods of between 10,000 and 100,000 years, and we haven’t got a clue. So we blame our own insignificant selves for “destroying” the planet. Hogwash, IMO.
Thanks. I feel better now.

Yeah, well they do think that banning CFCs helped with one of the atmospheric layers.
I’m sort of middle of the road on this stuff. I don’t think we should be cavalier about polluting, but I don’t trust environmental hysteria, either . . .
