All of them.....if a road branches off into two roads, it's called a 'fork'......does that make a cul-de-sac- a spoon...?

when birds fly south for the winter, why don't they just stay there and save themselves next years trip?

the actual reson is they need to go back north to lay their eggs.

Cause they would otherwise loose there air miles.

why does the mainstream news keep reporting on global warming if we are experiencing record snow depths and temperature drops?

Because global warming is actually a misnomer, while the temperatures on earth are rising, that doesn't necessarily mean warmer weather/climates. It means that there will be more extremes. For example, extreme heat or cold. Also, this means that there will be more severe weather events such as hurricanes and tornadoes.

Or it could be historical thermometers are in now urbanized areas which are now heat islands while the sun is also at a solar minimum leading to colder overall global temperatures.

100%, as we have no chance to get it right and there are 4 zeros.

Why do you press harder on a remote control when you know the batteries are dead?

Is motion created by the earth spinning or us picking up our feet and placing them one direction or the other?

Ya know, I've always wondered that. I'm going to say by us picking up our feet.

Who would win: Stormtroopers (who can't hit anything) or Star Trek Redshirts (who get hit by everything)?

Not necessarily true. Here in Kansas City, the official thermometer is at KCI Airport which is 21 miles from Downtown KC. Denver's airport is similarly miles outside the urbanized areas.

Historical thermometers at airports are always problematic and exactly what I'm talking about. The sunlight absorbed and reflected by all of the concrete, the pavement, the vehicles driving around, idling, parked in open air parking lots absorbing and reflecting heat, as well as things like jet engine exhaust creates an intense urban heat island effect. Especially at night after a hot sunny day.

75 years ago at the dawn of aviation, when there were dirt airstrips, prop planes, etc. we had thermometers in the sticks. Now we've built ovens around the thermometers and wonder why they show the temperature readings going up.

Thanks for teeing that one up. I appreciate it.

If you say so, but it isn't nearly as hot as it gets in a downtown or urban area. You have most of the factors you've mentioned plus the much less open area that gives the heat no place to go. Densely packed buildings trap all that heat. So the airports are still much more accurate. And I'm sure they take all those facts into consideration when deciding exactly where to place the official thermometer. I doubt it is placed anywhere near areas that would affect its accuracy.

Correct, the more urbanized the area, the more hardscape there is, the lower the % of tree cover, the darker the colors used for rooftops, roadways, parking lots, etc. the more pronounced the effect. It's why flat roofs on warehouse structures are typically white, to reflect sunlight (heat) back into the atmosphere and absorb less into the building. Ain't no heat island like a Walmart heat island.

Your own house and driveway are enough to create a localized effect. Ever walk on your driveway barefoot on a hot summer day or a cool night after one? Heat island effect. There's a reason we have the age old expression, "It's hot enough to fry an egg on that pavement." Heat island effect.

KCI in particular also suffers from a lack of vegetation over about 5 square miles. It's not a normal or natural ecosystem. No trees, no shade, anywhere. Trees cool an area in multiple ways, the leaves absorb the hottest red/yellow wavelengths of sunlight reflecting back the cooler green/blues, they provide shade cooling the air immediately below them, and they cool themselves and the air surrounding them by evaporating water through their leaves. No different than a swamp cooler.

None of that is ever taken into account when measuring the temperature data, reporting the temperature data, or modeling the temperature projections. They can't. The data is simply too complex. So, they just throw it out. It's also one of the many reasons why none of the models, none of the projections, and none of the predictions ever match what we actually observe.

What I see is tons of faulty data massaged into a plausible sounding model that gives the global elites exactly what they want, total control over everybody. All they need is control of 4 things and they control us all. The food supply, the water supply, the energy supply, and the money supply. That is their end game. Their total domination is almost complete. The only thing standing in their way now is an armed US populace.

Good thing they're not also trying to take our guns away. Oh wait...

You seriously don't know where this is headed? Have you not read the book? They don't even try to hide it any more. They show and tell us every day.

Wow. That's a whole lot of paranoia in one post.
