(1) How long does it take for rigor mortis to set in anyway?!?
(2) With no disrespect for the suffering of the Chilean, Japanese, and Haitian peoples intended, my husband and I tried this morning to end-run the Global Warmingists who are certain to insist that the recent uptick in plate tectonics is a consequence of "Climate Change" (da-da-DUNHHHH!!! *cue: scary music*). He beat them to the punch with this theory:
Earthquakes are being caused by the increased pressure on the plate boundaries resulting from the water-weight of melting polar ice caps and glaciers.
Hey -- water-weight is a component of PMS eruptions, so, why not?
Someone will posit this theorem -- just you wait!
Heh. You need to copyright or service mark that theory immediately, coz ya KNOW it'll be stolen.
ReplyDeleteNice postcard, too. ;-)
Bwahahahahahahahaha!
ReplyDeleteMoogie, what Buck said!
I swear, before this Chilean earthquake fallout is over, Obozo's Seismic Czar will have renamed the tectonic plates beneath Chili as "Bush's Fault."
I would search the NY Times, and WaPo tomorrow for "Earthquakes are being caused by the increased pressure on the plate boundaries resulting from the water-weight of melting polar ice caps and glaciers."
You will likely find that your husband's theory is now solid science.
