| Ay Pee Predicts Humongous Dead Zone in Gulf | |
| 2011-06-15 | |
Fertilizer runoff from farms is blamed, but the silver lining is that this disaster has not yet been linked to Man Made-Global-Warming-The-Undisputed-Scientific-Fact. Oh, wait. Mississippi River basin flooding is a factor, and we all know that's directly linked to MMGWTUSF. | |

| #10 Federal and university scientists are one and the same. 8500 square miles < than 100 miles by 100 miles. Is that unusual for a body of warm water as large as the Gulf? 8500 square miles is roughly a circle with a 100 mile diameter. There are something like 400+ of these zones worldwide and they aren't all exactly caused by artificial means like nitrogen based fertilizers (despite what some people will tell you). Furthermore these zones change in size and are sometimes even reversible. Basically its just another way of the Earth proving we don't know enough about it. |

| #9 NEWS KERALA > SUN CYCLE MOST LIKELY TO GO INTO HIBERNATION. The "Mini-Ice Age" may indeed be a'coming. Lest we fergit, OLD PERSONAL DREAMS/VISIONS > FUTURE GUAM-WESTPAC + THE "GREAT PACIFIC SLUSHY" [Ice Fog, Sleet, etc.], courtesy of GUAM TAOTAMONAS + 1960's-1980's MADONNA, TEXAS-SIZED ASTEROIDS, + YOUNG VIETNAM US ARMY SOLDIER AL GORE'S M-16. Humanity's favorite "Third Rock" from the Sun is still likely to experience powerful SOLAR FLARES = INCREASED GLOBAL WARMING as catalysts. HUMAN-CENTRIC PROTECTION FROM EXTREME HEAT ANDOR EXTREME COLD, ETC. = CONTRUX OF WELL-PROTECTED/INSULATED SURFACE, UNDERGROUND CITIES, TOWNS, + PERSONAL HOMES = EXTRA, ADVANCED MATERIALS = ..... = US MUST STAY, NOT LEAVE, THE ME. But I digress ... |

| #8 Imagine the run-off and water mix while the glaciers were melting off, maybe had those fresh water dolphins swimming around. I blame Apollo. |

| #7 May as well convert to totalitarian Secular Global Socialism-Govtism, or in the altern Global Islam-Sharia, now while waiting for the Sun to go nova + hoping for a despotic alien species wid LR space travel capabilities to conquer earth + send surviving enslaved humans back to their distant planet. [VINNY BARBARINO + "BATTLEFIELD EARTH", + "A.E" [After Earth] here]. |

| #6 At last check, there was Pert uncertainty over the larger effect(s) on UW Gulf oil systems as per the plugging the infamous DEEPWATER HORIZON leak. All things equal, perhaps the greatest single threat from "Globalism" + desired "OWG-NWO" is the LACK OF GLOBAL SCIENTIFIC, OTEHR PERT CONSENSUS AS PER "PEAK OIL/GAS/ENERGY", ETAL. >PEAK OIL-GAS = ENERGY? >PEAK FOOD? >PEAK WATER? >PEAK AIR? >PEAK METALS = PRECIOUS COMMODITIES? >PEAK POPULATION? >PEAK BIOMASS? >PEAK MARKETS? >PEAK FREEDOM(S)? To name just a few ... Iff the US-World desire to begin the Human Exploration + Colonization, etc. of Deep Space, THESE QUESTIONS M-U-S-T BE ANSWERED - ELSE, OUR DESIRED FUTURE OWG-NWO THAT NO AMERICAN = AMERIKAN OF THE FUTURE OWG MIGHTY USSA = OWG WEAK USRoA GLOBAL SSR HAS YET VOTED FOR, ETAL. TAINT GONNA GO INTO SPACE NO MATTER WHAT YOUSE SAY OR DO! |

| #1 Ay Pee isn't qualified to report the news! Federal and university scientists predict this year's zone will be between 8,500 square miles Federal and university scientists are one and the same. 8500 square miles < than 100 miles by 100 miles. Is that unusual for a body of warm water as large as the Gulf? |
