“My problem was his impact on the morale of the workforce,” Clapper told me. “It was the stories about ‘Flynn facts.’ Very erratic, you know, he’d always contradict himself and give direction and then 10 minutes later contradict it.

Substitute the names and we have definitely seen this elsewhere...

reasons for his firing hinted at an overweening confidence in his own apprehension of the world.

Which is weird, in that this involves very quickly forgetting what one was saying just a short time earlier...

@tom grzyb If you turned that camera in what direction would say, Mt, Hood, Mt St. Helens, or Mt. Adams be?

....where are you...neighbor?

where are you?

Far from that shore - I'm in the Berkshire Hills of Massachusetts - maybe 40 minutes west of Northampton.

@tom grzyb Loads of features in North America are a result of that time frame. A major catastrophe happened. Terminal moraines are just one of the marks left behind by the massive change in climate that happened approximately 12k years ago.

So massive, but has only been realized by a handful of geologist and others to date. With sufficient, actual rock, and other undisputable evidence that it has disrupted all of ancient history and archaeology from it's core. To the point of having to start again with a new story of mans past. Currently academia is resisting as if its life depended on it or something.

@tom grzyb What are the questions for? What caused the end of the last ice age is not well understood.

What ended the last ice age, and why it was so sudden has all been overlooked in the current paradigm, and that is going to prove a lot of academics wrong after the geologic past in rewritten. The story of the earths past is just starting to be revealed. And what is the most obvious is that the previous explanation is wrong.

This is all geologic, rock evidence, it's not going anywhere and it's been around for a long time. But a lot of the evidence is completely new, like the discovery of the Carolina Bays, the earths past is anything but well understood.

What caused the end of the last ice age is not well understood.

True. There have been many shifts in climate over geological time, and only sometimes can a actual precipitating event be identified. There are patterns, having to do with the orbit of the earth and something called "Precession", which is the changes of the rotation of Earth's rotational axis. However, it should be noted that there has been no global warming seen in the earth's history with anywhere near the rapidity which we are now experiencing.

Of course there has, 12k years ago.

This is false - if you knew your geology, you would know that. The last ice-age tapered off over the course of 10 thousand years or so...

Roughly 20,000 years ago the great ice sheets that buried much of Asia, Europe and North America stopped their creeping advance...

Ice did not vacate much of Europe or North America for another 4-5000 years or so. And temperatures were not much higher than they were previously.

What Thawed the Last Ice Age?

The relatively pleasant global climate of the past 10,000 years is largely thanks to higher levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide

Reedy channel in bog.

I just typed that to see if I could do it without any typos.

There just isn't enough water in California to satisfy what's been allotted on paper.

Not to mention the mounting heat, and general drought, and the fires...

A takings claim could be brought by property owners against the government if it seizes private property for public use. Owners could also make a takings claim if regulations go too far in restricting their use of the land.
But Metcalf said there could be situations where it's mutually beneficial for a property owner to cede his or her water rights.

Especially if your agricultural enterprise cannot continue in any case.

Actually, this is what it takes:

Useful. I do look at some German sites to see when and where to plant whatever we want in. Lucky to have a property some 810 m2 (including the House) and it took us some 10 years to start cleaning out old trees, etc... Currently we have fruit, nice looking trees, etc...
